  • Oppose I don't think we should have nominations that have been rejected at Commons a week ago. Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:13, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Oppose – An aerial view of an empty stadium & parking lot doesn't float my aesthetic boat. – Sca (talk) 13:28, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support – It's well done. The wide angle barrel distortion isn't ideal, but I think it blends in well as part of the composition. Bammesk (talk) 03:41, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I don't think it's [barrel distortion - it's just the shape of the stadium... However, there is of course keystone distortion due to the downward angle of the camera. --Janke | Talk 14:25, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • I was referring to the background's curvature on top (the stadium look Ok). I thought it was barrel, but apparently not. Bammesk (talk) 01:18, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support – I like this, and it captures something that other photos on the article Stadium do not. Because it is roofless, this shows the stadium archetype - the oval shape and tiered seating - and unlike most stadium views it also shows the whole structure and its context: the grand entrance, more modern additions around the sides, the scoreboard and the VIP box at the top.
