 * Reason:Curious looking animal, certainly draws the reader into the article. Academic style of photograph (fish identified by and photograph taken by an expert), high quality, obvious EV, and not a bad article (by no means a one-line stub). Note that the "cuts" are entirely natural- they are the lateral lines.

 * Comment: The original version included a scale which has been edited out: File:Chaunax stigmaeus dorsal view.jpg. Size information for the specimen should be added to the image description page based on this, or a scale added to this version.   Mae din\ talk 07:39, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I've added a note. J Milburn (talk) 10:57, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Is the fin right where the ruler was edited out? Makeemlighter (talk) 12:55, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. Maedin, you are spikebrennan and I claim my five pounds.  (mad props for asking for a scale or size reference). Spikebrennan (talk) 17:43, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Here's what that was supposed to say: are the colors on the lower fin correct? The bottom piece looks like it took the colors of the ruler. Makeemlighter (talk) 00:05, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Support Very good EV and HQ picture. SMasters (talk) 03:25, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
