 * This is a leather bucket. Jkadavoor (talk) 07:45, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
 * As what said in the filename and the description of the image from the creator, the bucket was wooden, that's all I know. Mediran  talk 10:31, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Please view the image at 1:1; you can see the folds and stitches. Why do you edit the page Water well without contacting the creator of the file? It seems the picture was taken at UAE where people use leather bags as water containers on their horses and camels too. From : "The camel had once provided most of life's necessities for desert nomads: It was a form of transportation, of course, a source of meat and milk, and provided hair to be woven into cloth for tents and storage bags. Its leather was made into sandals, buckets and watering-troughs and its sinews into bowstrings." Jkadavoor (talk) 13:29, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose First off, as stated above, it is a leather bucket. Not that it matters for FP purposes. The EV is low, as the image is only in the article Water well, and I don't think a water bucket illustrates a well fairly well. Lastly, either the focus is off or there is some motion blur, but the bucket is not sharp. -- WingtipvorteX  PTT   ∅  17:13, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
 * So corrected it in the article and file description. Jkadavoor (talk) 04:48, 2 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Oppose Low ev. The image barely shows just one part of the top of the well (not even the entire aboveground portion).  Spencer T♦ C 04:30, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
