Support Please let me know if anything should be changed. Thanks! -- cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 03:29, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I see its usefulness and it would probably have no problem getting to VI. But as an image per se it looks cluttered and unremarkable. Daniel Case (talk) 23:41, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- @Daniel Case:
  
  Detached version
  I've spread out the bridges as in this image. Will this do instead? How can I make it remarkable? Thanks, cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 01:26, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose for FP. It's useful, not remarkable as an image. As Daniel says, nominate it at COM:VIC. Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:14, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, done on Commons:Valued_image_candidates/comparison_of_notable_bridges_SMIL.svg. cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 18:50, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Cluttered. The alternative is better. --Yann (talk) 10:17, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment To be clear, I was addressing the alternative as well as the nominated image above. Yes, it's clearly better and easier to understand, but it's still not an awe-inspiring image, just a nice, useful one. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:33, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ikan Kekek: Thanks for your feedback, regardless. As you're one of the prominent Wikimedians on Featured Picture, for learning experience, how can I make a drawing more awe-inspiring? Would shading and texture help? I tried following the style of the former featured picture File:Giant_planes_comparison.svg. Thanks, cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 18:50, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I'm not seeing a way to make this awe-inspiring. Being merely quite clear, elegant and useful is enough, in my opinion. Please nominate to COM:VIC in the appropriate scope, with a link to the relevant Commons category. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:14, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the feedback. I've done so. cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 22:29, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I can't see the point of wasting our time with a nomination that is being roundly opposed right now on English Wikipedia. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:09, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- OK, I'm happy to withdraw this nomination and supersede it with Commons:Valued_image_candidates/comparison_of_notable_bridges_SMIL.svg. Sorry for wasting your time. cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 22:11, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
