 * Support. Doesn't have a huge amount of 'wow' factor, but frankly you can't really get more encyclopedic than this. Nautica Shad es  14:22, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
 * What an exageration! Of course there are always better options. You could have a cross section in the picture. Or it can be an animation showing both this and a 3D transparent model of it, plus the cross section and indications of size. :p Abisharan (talk) 13:27, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Your expectations are unreasonably high --Muhammad (talk) 17:31, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * No, I find this image fine. I even support the nomination. I was just making fun of the exaggeration "you can't really get more encyclopedic than this". I find interesting that in Wikipedia it is common that things are not just good or bad they are extremely good or terribly bad. People can't resists to add really intense adjectives and descriptions and I am curious of what are the mechanisms that make that happen. 128.100.216.170 (talk) 19:45, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh dear. That was intentionally hyperbolic. Obviously I didn't mean that this could not possibly be more encyclopedic, just that it was pretty flawless in terms of EV. Nautica Shad es  20:00, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
