Review (criteria)	Oppose Too large selection (it seems it is the whole category) => be more selective, please. Moreover, fails criterion 2 IMO. It isn't a suitably generic scope to me: 1/ there are several buildings named "Old Treasury Building" so the scope is equivocal and 2/ I tend to think that a "pre-renovations" scope is far too narrow. --Myrabella (talk) 04:26, 18 November 2009 (UTC)  Question how many photogarphs constitute a set I'm happy to reduce the numbers, what are here are photographs from the last public access opportunity before much of this building is demolished. Also can you suggest a scope for this group of images? Gnangarra 07:25, 18 November 2009 (UTC)  Comment Firstly about the scope. VI rules for a building scope are rather strict. They say: "Buildings, like other places, should be of more than local interest to justify a scope" and "When appropriate, the building scope can be divided in a "XXX (exterior)" scope and a "XXX (interior)" scope". Due to my ignorance, I was wondering whether that building even deserved a specific scope by itself. It is mentioned neither in en:Perth, Western Australia nor in en:History of Perth, Western Australia—but I found a mention of it in en:General Post Office, Perth and incidentally in en:List of historic buildings in Perth, Western Australia (as part of "Central Government Offices in Barrack Street") so I guess a scope about "Old Treasury Building, Perth" might be admitted. But in that case, File:Old Treasury Buildings, Perth, 1900-1910.jpg would be a better candidate IMO. So you could change the scope to "Old Treasury Building, Perth (interior)". Secondly about the choice of images for a set: I think that three images maximum would be enough. Try to select only the most illustrative pictures, giving an idea of what the whole building looked like. For example, this view isn't very characteristic; it could be in any office building. If you allow me a suggestion, perhaps 1 and 2? Be aware that each image in the set should be geotagged (criterion 5).--Myrabella (talk) 12:56, 19 November 2009 (UTC)  I withdraw my nomination Gnangarra 04:18, 20 November 2009 (UTC) Result: 0 support, 1 oppose (then withdrawn) => declined. -- Myrabella (talk) 13:48, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
