 * Support as nominator – Shagil Kannur (talk) 12:42, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose – Dancer not identified. – Sca (talk) 13:41, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Dear Sca, the dancer is unknown and unimportant here. This photo was taken from a dance competition. --Shagil Kannur (talk) 14:03, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
 * It's an established policy not to promote photos of anonymous individuals on the Main Page. – Sca (talk) 16:31, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Then, nothing to say. This is a fine example of Indian classical dance. Thus, it should be promoted. The performer, a school student, was one among the many participants in a dance competition, not a well known dancer at all. The highlight here is the Indian classical Dance. I hope you consider the above facts.--Shagil Kannur (talk) 17:53, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
 * And let me see where the above mentioned policy has been stated.--Shagil Kannur (talk) 18:10, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Identity is not required for FP. And FWIW, FP and POTD are not the same thing --Muhammad (talk) 07:26, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
 * There is no such policy. The guidance is the instructions on top of this page and the FP criteria, and neither mention the main page. Bammesk (talk) 03:48, 29 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Unknown but Support. Evan0512 (talk) 20:07, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose For a dance, a still photo (particularly a still photo only showing a small part of the body) is not terribly educational. Calliopejen1 (talk) 23:17, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose – the article is about the dance so a full body photo would have more EV (encyclopedic value), FP criterion #5. This photo would meet the EV criterion if the article described (say in a paragraph) this upper body pose, but I don't see that in the article. Also as a technical critique, the crop is too tight on top and left side. Bammesk (talk) 03:48, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
 * ❌--Shagil Kannur (talk) 04:59, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
