 Question Not sure: Sashes are rarely worn nowadays, and almost non-existent in North America. A picture of it being worn might be more informative to people who don't know much about it. Not sure if we can reasonably split the scope like you propose (and it'd probably need a wording tweak if we did). It IS a great image, though. Adam Cuerden (talk) 11:23, 15 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment I think that the people who don't know much about sashes could maybe click on the link I have put in the "scope". You may see here a lot of different official sashes, but none like this one, with so much details (tricolor knot, silver tassels and fringes).--Jebulon (talk) 16:58, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- In my imagination, sashes (thank you for expanding my vocabulary) are associated with beauty queens. Now I've learned that they are serious insignia in France. Thus the image, or its nomination, has educational value. But to illustrate the fact, I'd prefer an image where a serious person is wearing the sash.
- Technically, this image stands out among most wearers' images by showing the pompons. Apart from this, it shows just some textile tuft with the colours white, blue and red. It isn't obvious what the garment is cut like, and it isn't obvious that these coulours are French (and not Russian, for example).
Thus I  Oppose, suggesting File:ENSP trainees Bastille Day 2008.jpeg, where serious looking people wear the sash, with ordered coulours and visible pompons.

- Very kind and nice. You're a gentleman. (I already knew that).--Jebulon (talk) 22:55, 22 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- My friend, it's very smart or crafty to order colours as you say (white, blue, red)... But, seriously, how can you mistake the russian flag's light blue for the french flag's dark blue ? :). For the rest, that's my idea : an "artistic" photo of a sash without bearer, neither beauty queen nor south american president, french MP, belgian governor, italian jury, senegalese ambassador, usw. But i'll ask the owner of this one for another photo, with a well-ironed typically french sash !--Jebulon (talk) 21:20, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- OK,let's confuse it with File:Michelle Bachelet Banda2.jpeg, where the coulours are really the same, aren't they? I'm curious how the sash will be presented unfolded, without using a mannequin or dummy... ;) --Ikar.us (talk) 10:47, 22 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 Info In France (like in Chile, maybe), elected persons wear a golden pomponed (!!) sash. Officials persons (Officiers de Police Judiciaire) non-elected wear a silvered one.--Jebulon (talk) 22:55, 22 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]- Other Info: French members of Parliament wears it with the red near the neck, mayors or deputy mayors wears it with the blue near the neck.--Jebulon (talk) 22:58, 22 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 weak support I think it's probably just good enough of a scope to squeak by, but it's awkward, hence "weak"... Adam Cuerden (talk) 14:06, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
