Review (criteria)	Support useful. What is Campaign:wlbirds please Nirmal Dulal? Charles (talk) 13:43, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply] Hi Charles this photo is from Wiki Loves Birds. :) --Nirmal Dulal (talk) 15:44, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply] Comment What a brilliant project Nirmal. I'm coming with my wife and cameras to Nepal 9-22 November this year. I will mail you! Charles (talk) 16:47, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply] Sure, I'll be happy to see you here brother. Regards - Nirmal Dulal (talk) 17:59, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply] Oppose - Not as good as the other photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:44, 1 December 2019 (UTC) - I was uncomfortable with some of the arguments, so I did a web search. Gray feathers seem to be a minority variant, but I do believe this photo is oversaturated, and the background is surely more distracting than the other photo. If we get a better photo with blue feathers, we can have a Most Valuable Review. For now, I'm going back to opposing this photo and supporting the other. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:17, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply] Support The upperside of the birds is metallic blue --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 06:26, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply] Support Altogether more vibrant an image, with a more interesting background. Rodhullandemu (talk) 15:45, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply] Comment A "more interesting background" is a negative for VI, not a positive. Charles (talk) 16:41, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply] Comment That's your opinion. Mine differs. Rodhullandemu (talk) 17:31, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply] I agree with him. Hear me out: The point of a VI is to represent a scope as clearly as possible. A distracting background decreases the clarity of the depiction of the subject. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:09, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply] I agree with the principle, but the point here is that I am not distracted by the background. Should all backgrounds be bland? I doubt it. Rodhullandemu (talk) 23:16, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply] Not if they're integral to the scope. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:20, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply] 1.
