Comment This source would give a slightly different edit with at least bigger file size but I think also slightly better quality, together with a less misleading preview of the image. --Julian H. (talk/files) 22:13, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per criteria: "Images should not use too strong compression." This image has had 97% of its bits compressed out of it. They sky is a storm of JPG blocks and any contrasting edges are surrounded by gnats. Can folk please critically review the NASA stuff before nominating them here -- don't assume they are high quality images. Really someone should have a word with NASA that their "Public domain" requirements means they should publish the actual photos they took, not this shit.

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: Severe JPEG artifacts.

Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed.

- Not sure if it helps, but I wrote them a mail asking them to publish raw files of at least all images of the day. --Julian H. (talk/files) 11:35, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
