Políticas e normas sobre candidatas a imaxes destacadas

edit

Regras xerais

edit
  1. After the end of the voting period the result will be determined on day 15 after nomination (shown in the time-table below). So the voting period is two weeks (plus the hours until the end of day 14). Votes added on day 15 or after are not counted.
  2. Nominations by anonymous contributors are welcome
  3. Contributions to discussion by anonymous contributors are welcome
  4. Votes by anonymous contributors aren't counted
  5. Nominations do not count as votes. Support must be explicitly stated.
  6. Nominators can withdraw their nominated pictures at any time. This is done by simply writing "I withdraw my nomination".
  7. Remember, the goal of the Wikimedia Commons project is to provide a central repository for free images to be used by all Wikimedia projects, including possible future projects. This is not simply a depository for Wikipedia images, so images should not be judged here on their suitability for that project.
  8. Pictures can be taken from the list if they have no support (not counting the nominator's) on day number 7 (day of nomination + 7).

Para as instrucións sobre como proceder coas propostas antigas, vexa Template talk:Featured pictures candidates#What to do after voting is finished.

edit

Over time, featured picture standards change. It may be decided that for some pictures which were formerly "good enough", this is no longer the case. This is for listing an image which you believe no longer deserves to be a featured picture. These require 2/3 majority (and a minimum of 5 votes) agreeing to delist from featured pictures. If there is not 2/3 agreeing to delist it, it stays as a featured picture. For these, vote {{Keep}}  Keep (it deserves to be a featured picture) or {{Delist}}  Delist (it doesn't deserve to be a featured picture). Please provide a link to the original FP nomination (it will appear under "Links" on the image description page). Otherwise the same rules as above apply. Please use this link to add a new removal candidate.

Guidelines for nominators

edit

Below you can find some informal rules picture should match:

  • Resolution - graphics located on Commons may be used not only for viewing them on a screen. They may be also used for printing or for viewing on very high resolution monitors. We can't predict what devices would be used in the future neither, so it is important that pictures being nominated have a resolution as high as possible. A resolution of at least 2 million pixel (e.g. 2000 x 1000) seems reasonable right now.
  • Focus - every important object on the picture should be sharp.
  • Foreground and background - foreground and background objects may be pretty distracting. You should check if something in front of the subject doesn't hide some important elements and if something in background doesn't spoil the composition (for example if the streetlight doesn't "stand" on someone's head).
  • General quality - pictures being nominated should have good technical quality.
  • Value - our main goal is to feature most valuable pictures from all others. Pictures should be in some way special, so please be aware that:
    • almost all sunsets are pretty, and most of such pictures are not different in the essence from others,
    • nightshots are pretty but normally more details can be shown on pictures taken at daytime,
    • beautiful does not always mean valuable.

Not every rule has to be matched, e.g. a picture may have a low resolution, because higher resolution photos cannot be taken (subject may be dead), or the event is not going to occur again.

Guidelines for Evaluating Photographs

edit

There are several criteria for evaluating images.

On the technical side, we have exposure, composition, movement control and depth of field.

Exposure refers to the shutter diaphragm combination that renders an image with a tonal curve that ideally is able to represent in acceptable detail shadows and highlights within the image. This is called latitude. Images can be on the low side of the tonal curve (low range), the middle (middle range) or high side (upper range). Digital cameras (or images) have a narrower latitude than film. Lack of shadow detail is not necessarily a negative characteristic. In fact, it can be part of the desired effect. Burned highlights in large areas are a distracting element.

Composition refers to the arrangement of the elements within the image. The “Rule of Thirds” is a good guideline for composition and is an inheritance from the painting school. The idea is to divide the image with two imaginary horizontal and two vertical lines, thus dividing the image into thirds horizontally and vertically. Centering the subject is almost always considered a negative practice. Subjects of interest are placed in one of the “interest points”, where horizontal and vertical lines intersect (4 interest points are created). Horizons are never places in the middle, for they “cut” the image in half. They are placed either in the upper or lower horizontal line. Main idea here is NOT to center subject.

Movement control refers to the manner in which motion is represented in the image. Motion can be frozen or blurred. Neither one is better over the other. It is the intention of representation. Movement is relative within the objects of the image. For example, photographing a race car that appears frozen in relation to the background does not give us a sense of speed or motion, so technique dictates to represent the car in a frozen manner but with a blurred background, thus creating the sense of motion, this is called "panning". On the other hand, representing a basketball player in a high jump frozen in relation to everything else, due to the “unnatural” nature of the pose would be a good photograph.

Depth of field (DOF) refers to the area in focus in front of and beyond main subject. Depth of field is chosen according to the specific needs of every picture. Large or small DOF can either way add or subtract to the quality of the image. Low depth of field can be used to bring attention to the main subject, separating it from the general environment. High depth of field can be used to emphasize space. Short focal length lenses (wide angles) yield large DOF, and viceversa, long focal lenses (telephotos) have shallow DOF. Small apertures yield large DOF and conversely, large apertures yield shallow DOF.

On the graphic elements we have shape, volume, color, texture, perspective, balance, proportion, etc.

Shape refers to the contour of the main subjects.

Volume refers to the three dimensional quality of the object. This is accomplished using side light. Contrary to general belief, front lighting is not the best light. It tends to flatten subject. Best light of day is early morning or late afternoon.

Color is important. Over saturated colours are not good.

Texture refers to the quality of the surface of the subject. It is enhanced by side lighting… it is the “feel” to the touch….

Perspective refers to the “angle” accompanied by lines that disappear into a vanishing point that may or may not be inside the image.

Balance refers to the arrangement of subjects within the image that can either give equal weight or appear to be heavier on one side.

Proportion refers to the relation of size of objects in picture. Generally, we tend to represent small objects small in relation to others, but a good technique is to represent small objects large contrary to natural size relationship. For example, a small flower is given preponderance over a large mountain…. This is called inversion of scales.

Not all elements must be present. Some photographs can be judged on individual characteristics, that is, an image can be about color or texture, or color AND texture, etc.

Symbolic meaning or relevance…. Well, this is where opinion wars start…. A bad picture of a very difficult subject is a better picture than a good picture of an ordinary subject. A good picture of a difficult subject is an extraordinary photograph.

Images can be culturally biased by the photograher and/or the observer. The meaning of the image should be judged according to the cultural context of the image, not by the cultural context of the observer. An image “speaks” to people, and it has the capacity to evoke emotion such as tenderness, rage, rejection, hapiness, sadness, etc. Good photographs are not limited to evoking pleasant sensations….

Above all, Be polite

edit

Please don't forget that the image you are judging is somebody's work. Avoid using phrases like "it looks terrible" and "I hate it". If you must oppose, please do so with consideration. Also remember that your command of English might not be the same as someone elses. Choose your words with care.

Happy judging… and remember.... all rules can be broken

Diver or Chaman in Tin Tazarift in Tassili n'Ajjer in Djanet in Algeria. In fact there are tow interpretation to this frescos: one says it is about divers in water fishing and the archers and people around helping them, the other says that the horizontal men are chamans representing the link bitween this world and other dimensions and the archers are there to protect the ritual. I like too the level of water that erased some of the frescos and let one diver and part of the second diver: this gives an idea about the water level during rain period. I think it could be FP du to the complete scene in the frescos.

  • I agree that the photo would profit from a more detailed description, stating what exactly we see in this photo. Hallo Rainer, das ist eine wunderbare Aufnahme.

It is categorized to the specific event and to the "Narrenzunft" (the specific group it belongs to). I even took out just now one over-categorization. What further categorizations do you miss. I know there are all kinds of categorizations, like "XYZ facing left or right" and what else not. But that is something that should be left to those needing an wanting such categories and not necessarily to the uploader. A description in English could be provided. But it will not be as descriptive since there are no articles in English to the Event or the specific guilds. Wuselig (talk) 08:51, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Tomascastelazo You are right, I put it too soon and should have asked for this work to be done before nominating it. I am still quite new to Commons so I'm happy to learn. -- Wikisquack (talk) 15:34, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a cave painting of a Woman centaur in Tassili n'Ajjer in Algeria. I think it could be featured due to the rare and special subject: in fact did the Neolitic's painter saw it, imagined it or did he dreamed about? also you can see even her eye and the wind taking her hair behind.

Diver or Chaman in Tin Tazarift in Tassili n'Ajjer in Djanet in Algeria. In fact there are tow interpretation to this frescos: one says it is about divers in water fishing and the archers and people around helping them, the other says that the horizontal men are chamans representing the link bitween this world and other dimensions and the archers are there to protect the ritual. I like too the level of water that erased some of the frescos and let one diver and part of the second diver: this gives an idea about the water level during rain period. I think it could be FP du to the complete scene in the frescos.

  • The least they can do is mention the moons of Mars rather than depict it. It can misinform users into thinking they don't exist. I wouldn't want to have a factually incorrect image as a featured picture. Zzzs (talk) 21:03, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Draceane, thank you in advance for the upcoming update. Funny coincidence: I also informed the user about this nomination in a very polite way by email shortly after 10:00 UTC today.

  • I agree that the photo would profit from a more detailed description, stating what exactly we see in this photo. Hallo Rainer, das ist eine wunderbare Aufnahme. Könntest Du die Beschreibung noch ein bisschen erweitern, sodass sie sagt, was wir in dieser Aufnahme sehen? Danke! – Aristeas (talk) 08:49, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is categorized to the specific event and to the "Narrenzunft" (the specific group it belongs to). I even took out just now one over-categorization. What further categorizations do you miss. I know there are all kinds of categorizations, like "XYZ facing left or right" and what else not. But that is something that should be left to those needing an wanting such categories and not necessarily to the uploader. A description in English could be provided. But it will not be as descriptive since there are no articles in English to the Event or the specific guilds. Wuselig (talk) 08:51, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Tomascastelazo You are right, I put it too soon and should have asked for this work to be done before nominating it. I am still quite new to Commons so I'm happy to learn. -- Wikisquack (talk) 15:34, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Vielen Dank für die superschnelle Ergänzung der Beschreibung, Rainer! – I think the categories are fine, and Wuselig has expanded the description so that we now know that we see a Schuttig, the traditional carnival figure/mask from Elzach.

This is a cave painting of a Woman centaur in Tassili n'Ajjer in Algeria. I think it could be featured due to the rare and special subject: in fact did the Neolitic's painter saw it, imagined it or did he dreamed about? also you can see even her eye and the wind taking her hair behind.
