Oppose It may be useful and hard to get but it's not an excellent graphic. It seems there is a window hidden in the middle. And the watermark on the right is ugly and pixelated. Last but not least I do not understand it. --Ikiwaner (talk) 17:04, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Not what I would call an excellent presentation of scientific data. It is a cheap looking screenshot, cluttered with widgets, a watermark, remnants of a second window. The transistor structure is not indicated, scales/labels are missing on the second plot, the height scale is not well defined and very hard to make out. Image description lacks basic information. --Dschwen (talk) 17:56, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not a single support vote is stating a reason. Interesting. --Dschwen (talk) 14:03, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- You don't need to give a reason if it's obvious why you're supporting. I supported because it has high EV. I didn't think anyone would have such a hard time figuring that out that they would get suspicious. --The High Fin Sperm Whale 18:55, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - That is an easy thing to claim and even easier to debunk by giving detailed criticism of the illustration as I did above. Looking sciency is not the same as having high EV. --Dschwen (talk) 19:33, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    - No, it's not the same thing, but this one has both (used on 14 articles on 6 different languages). --The High Fin Sperm Whale 22:47, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It wouldn't even pass as a QI with that watermark. --Ikiwaner (talk) 14:15, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per the concerns brought up above - I would think that the graphics could be better, but if not, then the other imperfections that this image has could certainly not be present in the graphic (e.g. oodly-positioned watermark with a non-background-color filling for the "B", the windows fragment in between, etc.). ~Kevin Payravi (Talk) 21:15, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
