Bernina Express

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 2 Feb 2021 at 21:00:52 (UTC)

Reason

Quality lead image. Bernina Express is a four-hour train journey (and tourist attraction) in the Alps connecting Chur in Switzerland to Tirano in Italy. The tracks were laid around 1910 and are the fifth highest in Europe at 2253 meters. The trip crosses 196 bridges and 55 tunnels. The route is designated a World Heritage Site. In this photo the train is headed southbound passing by Lago Bianco reservoir. Depicted are two Rhaetian Railway ABe 4/4 III locomotives (each with a 28 passenger capacity), six passenger cars, and overhead electric lines. Bernina Pass is to the right and behind the foreground hill. FP on Commons.

• I made the second image an Alternate. It is an older photo from 2010. The two photos share the same locomotive #51 so I think red is the more recent color scheme.

The Iron Horse

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 5 Feb 2021 at 03:56:32 (UTC)

Reason

Found this as Featured Media at Commons. Another film part of the National Film Registry, the registry said that The Iron Horse "introduced to American and world audiences a reverential, elegiac mythology that has influenced many subsequent Westerns." Seems to be a very important film in its genre.

• Comment. I have no concerns about image quality but it's used in its article in the middle of what is effectively a large image gallery, rather than being the lead image or being called out in the text as illustrating an important aspect of the subject. Is there enough EV? —David Eppstein (talk) 20:33, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• The physical attributes of the male are in the description section, near the image on my display (black striped feathers, brown head, white-striped neck, black tail, blue bill, white breast, yellow vent). Ref 12 (at the end of the paragraph) describes the forward swimming posture, so I added a sentence on that. About lead position or placement: being a lead image isn't a requirement, or always best or possible (juvenile, breeding, etc). Repositioning images in established articles can be controversial. This is a featured article, so I think some thought has gone into the depictions and article watchers would take care of repositioning and improvements if/when necessaey. On a sidenote, I think this image meets the "eye-catching" part of the instructions on top of this page, which IMO is a bonus. Bammesk (talk) 02:09, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose A bit too esoteric for non-experts (and so is the article... ;-), also not very captivating visually. --Janke | Talk 15:04, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose – Ditto. Diagram is not intelligible to most readers. – Sca (talk) 13:52, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. I disagree with the comments suggesting that technical illustrations are ineligible for FPC, but I agree with the comment that this is "not very captivating visually". And although the visual part of the illustration does a fine job of illustrating the general concept of an exact sequence, the textual part is more or less illegible at normal image viewing sizes. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:27, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  "Ineligible" - who said that? (Sca said "intelligible", you say "illegible"... Dang this discombobulating English language! ;-) --Janke | Talk 08:10, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  You. You said "too esoteric for non-experts (and so is the article... ;-)" in a way that made those attributes sound like reasons not to feature this image. Are esoteric subjects not allowed here? (Also, to mathematicians, exact sequences are a very basic and important topic.) —David Eppstein (talk) 08:26, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  I stand by what I said, but that does not make esoteric images generally ineligible. In fact, they may be very interesting, drawing the viewer to the article. Not in this case though, IMHO. --Janke | Talk 15:23, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment – I agree with David. Looking at the category here, the last addition was 8 years ago!, unfortunately. Bammesk (talk) 02:41, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is not unmeaningless. – Sca (talk) 15:20, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • If you're looking for more candidates, I have many many mathematics illustrations at Commons:User:David_Eppstein/Gallery. Most are very simple line art that I do not think would pass muster at FPC (the simplicity is intentional, as busier images tend to be less clear at illustrating the mathematics they are intended to illustrate) but a few go beyond that and might be worth trying. Part of the charm of the nomination here is that it provides a memorable and intuition-building 3d picture of an abstract construction that is not particularly geometric or 3-dimensional. But that charm is going to be lost on people who aren't already familiar with the subject, without the text it would again be probably too simple and diagrammatic as an image to pass, and with the text it's illegible. —David Eppstein (talk) 08:42, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment I've nothing against esoteric pictures becoming Featured, in principle, and an image can be visually striking even if the mathematics behind it is advanced material. However, I'm not sold on this particular instance. Particularly within the inner ovals, the text is both small and crowded. XOR'easter (talk) 22:12, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Reason

Good illustration of skew lines. As described in the article, this depiction illustrates the formation of hyperboloids via the revolution of skew lines. I think a good rule of thumb for math related FPs is "being eye-catching to the point where users will want to read its accompanying article", as suggested on top of this page. This is a good example of it.

Given your other two comments (fear that the police look like "bad guys" and subsequent defense of the police warning that "criminals will eat us alive,"), along with your deceptive reformatting of comments [2], I'm not willing to assume that this is a good-faith criticism of the photograph itself, as I am with Sca (who you copied word-for-word).

Seems high-q enough, for a historical image. EV, as it depicts where it crashed; kinda makes the viewer guess how it crashed. The color and angle accurately depicts how depressing a crash can be.

• Comment – How does this pic convey the story of the 737-Max? – Sca (talk) 14:43, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sca, this does not have to convey the story of the groundings. It shows just how glorious the plane looks like to the world before the crash occurred. Striking wings and dynamic shape. Retrospectively, it conveys just how greedy Boeing is; seeing the image makes you cling between liking it or hating it. GeraldWL 14:54, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose – Doesn't illustrate entire aircraft. – Sca (talk) 15:11, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sca, it has to? The criteria merely states "It illustrates the subject in a compelling way", and I think this does. Showing the whole picture, I think would make it dull, as the whole body is predictable, looking at the previous 737s. This image shows the dynamic side of the 737, making it original.

Well that's because of the angle it is shot. It's three dimensional world, anyone who has seen airplane photos can know that it's not growing out of the cabin. Wikipedia:Featured pictures/Vehicles/Air has similar angles. GeraldWL 18:27, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. It is actually a pretty good illustration of the split-tip winglet, although I could quibble that the alignment of the winglet edge with the plane's nose makes it difficult to understand the image. But as the discussion above illustrates, its purpose as an illustration of this specific winglet rather than as a general illustration of the whole plane is not obvious from its current usage. We don't currently have a separate article on the split-tip winglet; it is just a paragraph in the more general winglet article. Is there enough EV for this subtopic? —David Eppstein (talk) 19:32, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

David Epstein, one could argue that it serves little EV, but I think it has a significant amount. In the wingtip device article, it illustrates the split-tip type, and in the MAX article, it gives a closer look at the device. It also shows how cool this aircraft was with the split-tip to everyone when it first launched: amazing, striking. GeraldWL 02:01, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose - Only Wingtip highlighted in the picture. The engine & fuselage is cropped off. A different color detail on wingtip bringing its design to focus might clear voting. --Kalyan (talk) 03:54, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Support. Exhibits the main qualitative features of its topic (the changes in phase from randomness, to patches of color, to spirals, to the fastest spirals winning out over the slower ones). It's not the lead image of its article (a static image of a 1d cca) but still features prominently and provides significant information different from what's in the lead. And, importantly for FP on a technical topic, it's eye-catching. This tends to lead to FPs that are more focused around visual topics like fractals and cellular automata and less around important mathematics (much like our FPs in biology are focused on charismatic fauna and less on important theoretical aspects of biology), but I think cyclic CAs are still significant enough to bring the necessary EV. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:23, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment The final cycle goes on too long. --Janke | Talk 12:49, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• It doesn't really stabilize into a cycle (it's somewhat similar to a moiré pattern). It's necessary to show the ongoing variations, for example new vertical ridges develop at the bottom-right and then at the bottom-left over the last 10 seconds. Bammesk (talk) 16:40, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment – Yikes! Let me out of here! – Sca (talk) 14:18, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • This horrified reaction to even the most eye-catching and visually appealing and not-very-technical of mathematics images, and the reaction below that we must compromise the mathematical meaning of the image to make it even more eye-catching, is not making me optimistic about the ability of FPC to cover anything more than cute fuzzy animals and Kodak-spot tourist viewpoints. Is that really what we want when we clamor that en-FPC is different than commons-FPC because encyclopedic value? —David Eppstein (talk) 20:00, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• I agree. We are here to pick the best images, meaning the best in the context of enhancing an article. We aren't here to pick eye-pleasing images. FP criteria says: "A featured picture is not always required to be aesthetically pleasing". In evaluating noms like the one here, a large measure of what is (or isn't) best has to do with the consensus of article editors (i.e. the choices they have made and article stability). The second half of this animation relates to the article text, which says: "The third stage ... The demons with shorter cycles consume demons with longer cycles". Looking at other FPs in the math category, this image may pass on renomination. Bammesk (talk) 03:22, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Fine as a thumbnail but not an animation on an article proper (saturated colours are very distracting). Also agree that the final cycle is too long (developing ridges not obvious unless pointed out). cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 01:45, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's more important for the topic that we show the full process of changes, including the last part that looks slower, than that we avoid boring viewers with attention spans of a few seconds. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:41, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The more obvious development is the slow disappearance of the very first vortex (at middle-left). There is a shorter version of this animation: here. I agree with the article editors that the longer version (the nom version) is the more appropriate one to use. The simulation starts with noise, and the longer term instability (albeit not obvious, but a consequence of the initial noise) is a relevant part of the animation.

She is the student who leapt into the air with a double victory sign at a democracy rally at Asan. Sixteen years later, the same photographer snapped a photo of her during the April Uprising as she chanted pro-democracy slogans on the streets. At 39 and the mother of a young son, Durga has been a customs officer at the Tatopani Checkpoint on the Chinese border for the past year. Having been a social worker with charities like Sahara Group, activism comes easy to Durga. Source. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSA^talk 12:05, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
