Milky Way 3
Voting period ends on 6 Oct 2014  at 14:34:07 (UTC)
 * Reason:Stunning, and beautiful. Encyclopedic as well as perfect. Failed twice due to the tag artist's concept but I think which would definitely fail File:Magnificent CME Erupts on the Sun - August 31.jpg if cosidered so.
 * Articles in which this image appears:Milky Way, and possibly more. Also used as a stub template for the galaxy. Copied from 2nd nomination.
 * FP category for this image:Featured pictures/Space/Looking out or Featured pictures/Space/Looking back May fit in either.
 * Creator:NASA


 * Support either or both (preferably Alt.1 due to current talks) as nominator –  The herald  14:34, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Not only is the version nominated below the 1500 threshold, it remains an artist's concept. File:Magnificent CME Erupts on the Sun - August 31.jpg, on the other hand, is from the Solar Dynamics Observatory and does not appear to have been drawn by people. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:55, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't think that being an "artist's impression/conception" is on it's own grounds for opposing this. We're never going to have an actual image of our galaxy. There will always be the need to draw/render it. For it to have value it needs to be drawn for credible, recent and accepted information. These images do exist. I'd say the best one is this which does all of the above, and comes from a reputable source. 24.222.214.125 (talk) 16:47, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I could probably get behind that annotated version, as it serves as a diagram and not just "this is the Milky Way". — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:55, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Crisco above. File:Magnificent CME Erupts on the Sun - August 31.jpg is from the Solar Dynamics Observatory (see for example this APOD image). Coat of Many Colours (talk) 19:07, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
 * ,..How's now...?!!!!
 * Support Alt 1 -- Happy to support that. Are images of our Galaxy that scarce? I understand that necessarily they are either images of the Milky Way or synthesis. Away most of today but I'll look through the APOD archives when I get back and if I see anything as good as Alt comment here. Cheers. Coat of Many Colours (talk) 11:25, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeh, sure I'll try through APOD. You'll get more images (from outside) till either you take them from outside (may be some Voyager 3 or like that) or some aliens may take a selfie with ours...:-)  The herald  11:55, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Or we can call a drawing a drawing, mark it as a diagram, and nominate that. Should work much better. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:26, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
