•  Info created by Thomas Rowlandson, Robert Pollard, and Aquatinto by Francis Jukes (1745-1812). Restoration by Durova and User:Adam Cuerden, uploaded and nominated by Adam Cuerden-- Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:37, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
•  Info Re-nomination, only just missed quorum last time. Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:37, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
•  Support Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:56, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
•  Support Very good quality, very well detailed picture. WikiLaurent (talk) 18:54, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
•  Support Great restauration effort. --Mylius (talk) 23:17, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
•  Question Why does this deserve to be much bigger than the default for the nominations page? --99of9 (talk) 03:46, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
  • This allows at least some of the details to be made out. The original is extremely large, and at this size you can, for example, just make out Samuel Johnson, James Boswell, and the like, which you could not in the smaller. Adam Cuerden (talk) 04:08, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
•  Support --George Chernilevsky ^talk 06:14, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
•  Support Very well done, high educational value. --Cayambe (talk) 07:44, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
•  Support It's a FP, IMO. Please notice that annotations are not the exactly the same here and on the file page. A visit to this file page would be very interesting because of the very well-documented explanations. High (english) historical value.--Jebulon (talk) 16:59, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

•  Neutral bad file name. Unless the purpose of "03193u" is convincingly explained, I find it "noisy". The true title of the artwork should be provided. In that case it seems to be Vaux-Hall with a hyphen. So the File should be called [[:File:Vaux-Hall.jpg]] or [[:File:Vaux-Hall by Thomas Rowlandson.jpg]] or [[:File:Thomas Rowlandson - Vaux-Hall.jpg]](in a similar fashion with File:George Romney - Portrait de l'artiste.jpg) . A Creator template should be used. The date information should be provided in a less ambiguous manner, mentionning that 28 June 1785 is not the date when the event took place or the date when the painting was completed but the publishing date. Category:Engravings is a crowded category and no file should be included directly into it. Instead it should be included into a more detailed "by century" or even "by decade" or "by year" category and a "by country" category. Perhaps a template adapted from {{Painting}} should be created for engravings. I not sure if one should understand that it was "drawn by" Rowlandson, as a painting was mentioned. Should we no write "painted by" instead ? Teofilo (talk) 14:06, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
•  Oppose - ditto to Teofilo. One obvious effect of the filename's 0- prefix is to place it at the top of any category page it is in, making it more conspicuous, very sneaky . . . On the pic itself, yes, high quality and so on, but it doesn't have the 'wow' factor that makes a pic special. The subject matter I find decidedly boring. MPF (talk) 21:43, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

You are right. I've actually been meaning to move it for some time, but it's used enough places that it's going to be slightly disruptive. Long story short, that was the filename on my computer; the 03193u is the Library of Congress file name, which makes it a little easier for me to find the right page again when it comes time to link the image. Unfortunately, when I sent my work to Durova, she uploaded without changing the name, and there was no easy way to move files until fairly recently. It's moved now. Adam Cuerden (talk) 22:31, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for your effort to change for a better name. I still disagree with your keeping of "Dr. Johnson, Oliver Goldsmith, Mary Robinson, et al." within the file name. I think File names should not be more complicated than "<artist name> - <artwork title>". For example, I find the dates too noisy in File:Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) - The Last Supper (1495-1498).jpg but I am glad that it is not named [[:File:Leonardo da Vinci - The Last Supper - Jesus, Peter, John et al.jpg]]. Anyway your effort is probably worth that I change my "oppose" into "neutral". Teofilo (talk) 08:20, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
