Citröen DS 21 (1969)
It seems impossible that such an exzellent photo should not bee featured! There must be something wrong with the conditions of the contest. Obviously everybody is touched when seeing little animals or is impressed when seeing big landscape but cars are not interesting for most of them. -- Lothar Spurzem (talk) 20:33, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, thanks, Lothar. I appreciate your passionate support to my photo, and I also really love it myself, and would of course have liked to see it featured. You know, it could have been promoted if I had not abstained but supported instead, but I prefer if featured pictures of mine are promoted with a good margin, so I think it is OK. Only about 1 in 3000 images on Commons gets featured, so better one too few than one too many. That said, I agree with you that sometimes what reviewers favor seems a little one-sided. There are certain kinds of "cute" subjects, which just naturally attract more attention and support. As a consequence we do not have quite the diversity of subject in our gallery that I could could wish for. --Slaunger (talk) 20:47, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
