Amarnath

 * Reason: IMO, The image is encyclopaedic because 1. The shrine (lingam) is accessible only for a month every year 2. The pilgrimage to Amarnath is 42 km track on foot, through mountaineous terrain. Not many people are going to do that for a photo for wikimedia. 3. In recent years, the lingam is melting quickly due to global warming see Amarnath_temple. Also the image is fairly big, complying to Featured pic (>1000 pixels) resolution.

 * Comment I believe there is another file at commons. Place and use the file at commons.
 * No, I think now that it's a VPC, we need a en:wiki page for keeping the VPC template, etc. Intothewoods29 (talk) 17:53, 19 January 2009 (UTC)


 * I think it's ok now. Fletcher (talk) 04:40, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
 * It's OK to delete the image on en wikipedia just as VPC File:Swami Vivekananda-1893-09-signed.jpg was deleted recently. Just add again to the image description page after deletion of the image itself. -- Redtigerxyz  Talk 13:00, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I see that's done now. -- Redtigerxyz Talk 13:02, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
