- Info View of the Gate of All Nations, belonging to the homonym palace and located in the ruins of the ancient city of Persepolis, Iran. The construction of the Gate of All Nations was ordered by the Achaemenid king Xerxes I (486-465 BC), the successor of the founder of Persepolis, Darius I the Great. Btw, it is the second attempt to get this fabulous subject to FP level, the first one is here (frontal view). All by me, Poco2 21:00, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
- Support -- Poco2 21:00, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose The crop is too close on the left side and at the top. I think the other version is superior. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:09, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose per above. Though I opposed the first nom as well. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 12:31, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
- Neutral Crop doesn't bother me so much, but there is purple fringing on top that could be removed. Daniel Case (talk) 21:15, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose - I liked the frontal view, and I'm sorry it barely missed being featured, but I don't like this angle. But I just checked, and there's no VI for Category:Gate of All Nations, so I think I'll nominate the frontal view at VIC. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:48, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
- I withdraw my nomination Opposing because you don't like the angle (or neither this nor the last one) is fine to me but I would appreciate if you give me a second hint how would you have done it. For subjects like this one there is plenty of examples online. Daniel: the fringe is now gone Poco2 17:51, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
