  •   Question You have a lot of former (successful and good) nominations of the BMW Welt in Munich. I wonder if it is a good idea to give all those BMW photos a prominent place by an FP seal? It is something like free advertising for BMW. I would like to hear other opinions on this question. For sure most of your BMW noms are nice, but the educational value (vs. advertising value) is imho very limited. --Tuxyso (talk) 09:16, 2 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      Answer Categorizing my pictures as advertising is IMO a blow below the belt. I have also successfully nominated a couple pictures of Mercedes like this one. I just happen to live close to the BMW buildings and they are just fascinating to me. I see them rather as architecture masterworks, visited by millions of people every year, than just advertising. But, don't worry, I will refrain from nominating anything related to them Poco2 19:37, 2 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Sorry Poco, probably my words were misunderstanding. I have not categorized your pictures as advertising. Most of them are good or very good architecture shots. My problem is the motive. As far as I know the "BMW Welt" was solely built for representation and advertising purposes. FP means giving those pictures a prominent place on Commons which might be in the case here not a good idea. --Tuxyso (talk) 07:36, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, I don't really care much about the official purpose of the building, it is one of the nicest modern architecture buildings I have seen. But don't worry, I will bring new subjects in the coming week from a bunch of countries in Asia. Poco2 08:40, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Oppose For this one. The building is not particularly well lit (no fault of the photographer) and as Tyxyso says you've had others and imo better images of this already featured.Flickrworker (talk) 10:56, 2 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Oppose and we have a current FP with the same point of view which is better IMHO. --kaʁstn Disk/Cat 14:01, 2 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  •   I withdraw my nomination Poco2 08:42, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
