Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Valued image seal

Valued image seal

 * Reason:It is the logo for a new review system that emphasizes the images that are available in the commons collection and selects the superior image for conveying the information it is supposed to convey. For me, I thought I knew about the subject that the image I had given favorable support to in another review system but while checking the requirements of this new review system, I realized how little I knew about the subject and looking at the other images available was a very good exercise.  As English wikipedia is today rerunning one of their featured pictures, let me use the example of a spoon.  An image of a spoon might not have enough whatever for the other review systems but if that image of a spoon is the best one that is available to represent the idea of a spoon, then it should become the Valuable Image and get this seal.  Handcrafted by LadyofHats and/or LadyofHats for use at the new review system.

 * Oppose It's not in any articles, hence it doesn't meet the criteria of adding to an article. Capital photographer (talk) 03:08, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Close nomination, it's nice but FPC is not for nice images--that's the Commons. This is for images very useful to the English language encyclopedia... not outside project.  Try commons:C:FPC. gren グレン 04:25, 1 June 2008 (UTC)  Oh, you already are doing this on the commons 04:25, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Question -- I understand the not being used in an article critique, but to say it is different projects when there is so much encouragement here to upload images there, the 'outside' project idea is confusing to me. It is a review system which finds available images to illustrate articles with.  Indeed, images which are being used for articles here are not being supported there due to higher quality images being available.  Please define 'different project' `cause I think in this case it makes those 'different projects' appear to provide higher quality and that much additionally "encyclopedic" images than this review system is doing. -- the consensus (talk) 06:31, 1 June 2008 (UTC) [Sockpuppet of nominator]
 * Commons has different standards for what is required and expected of a Featured Picture (as do other Wikipedias). The only images that are eligible for the English Wikipedia featured status are ones that are used to illustrate articles on English Wikipedia.  Because of that, this image is not eligible.  Certainly the new valued image process will be useful for many projects in terms of identifying the highest quality, most encyclopedic illustrations we have for a given topic; the featured pictures process here has different goals from valued images (and featured pictures) on Commons.  I am closing this nomination, since this image cannot be placed in an article.--ragesoss (talk) 06:56, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: Close the nomination, certainly, however I have seen many a nomination remain on this page. The image is good, the review system is going to improve articles.  The removal of the nomination from the candidate page is kind of sad and not useful. -- carol (talk) 07:14, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
