Jahangir[edit]

Original - Jahangir, as painted by Abu al-Hasan in 1617.

High encyclopaedic value and good resolution. The full painting, File:Jahangir - Abu al-Hasan.jpeg is used at Mughal Painting, and also may be a potential FP. This image would be in Wikipedia:Featured pictures/Artwork/Paintings if promoted.

  • I can't see any problems with this image, but I'm not sure how people will feel about cropping it from the bigger one. For the article it is in I think that it is fine though personally. JJ Harrison (talk) 06:51, 14 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Would it be preferable to nominate the full painting ? I think the cropped version has a higher encyclopaedic value, because it provides a much better picture of Jahangir in preview. --Xijky (talk) 07:53, 14 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure. What about putting both in the nomination and letting the reviewers pick? JJ Harrison (talk) 21:04, 14 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Only issue is that I can't upload the full image at full resolution, due to the poor quality of my internet connection/computer. I tried, but my browser crashed. I can try again, but as of now the "full" version of the file isn't at such good resolution. --Xijky (talk) 21:35, 14 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There is nothing to prevent you just giving this one a go then. JJ Harrison (talk) 20:18, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I need to wait for someone to second it, surely ? --Xijky (talk) 22:22, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think you need to wait for a seconder, but I'll put my name down there anyway. I think this has a good chance of success. Apart from a little softness right in the corners, I don't see any quality issues. Personally I prefer the tighter view (not strictly a crop, as it's an independent photo). --Avenue (talk) 23:29, 16 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose Crop, Supprt Full Version Makes sense to crop it for the article lead, but it would be better to FP the full version. Are you able to take the full-rez version on a thumb drive and upload it somewhere with a high-speed connection? Clegs (talk) 11:18, 18 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid not. I think the cropped version is perhaps a more useful image of Jahangir, whereas the full version (which I am afraid I cannot upload in full resolution) is a better image to use in the context of Mughal art. In any case, the full version at the current resolution is still a reasonably good picture. --Xijky (talk) 16:43, 18 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - The crop has higher EV for Jahangir, making it a worthy FP on its own. Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:55, 19 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question This nomination appears to be using a nonstandard format for FPC. Was this format copied from another page? Pinetalk 09:21, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It came from Picture Peer Review. --Xijky (talk) 13:01, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
