- No opinion as to whether this is a set with the optional image. MER-C 16:53, 21 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment – leaning to support but how about a set nomination [1] and [2]? I know the aspect ratios don't match but a lot does match, the color schemes, backgrounds, closeup framing, etc. This makes a good set (more EV on color variation). Bammesk (talk) 12:47, 21 November 2021 (UTC)
- I don't believe the set would be exhaustive. I have added the second image anyway and will let the voters decide whether this is a set or not. MER-C 16:53, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

- High EV, but the picture seems very soft. I wonder where does it come from, as the source mentioned has only an image of 843 x 1242 px. Yann (talk) 20:12, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose – per Yann it's too soft. This is not a good version. Click on the image on this source link and then zoom in, you will see a very sharp scan. Bammesk (talk) 01:28, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose – per Yann. Very unsharp at top & bottom. Furthermore, it is apparently not public domain: " © 2018 Estate of Pablo Picasso / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York"--Janke | Talk 14:16, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

The wide angle barrel distortion isn't ideal, but I think it blends in well as part of the composition. Bammesk (talk) 03:41, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I don't think it's [barrel distortion - it's just the shape of the stadium... However, there is of course keystone distortion due to the downward angle of the camera. --Janke | Talk 14:25, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
- I was referring to the background's curvature on top (the stadium look Ok). I thought it was barrel, but apparently not. Bammesk (talk) 01:18, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
- Support – I like this, and it captures something that other photos on the article Stadium do not. Because it is roofless, this shows the stadium archetype - the oval shape and tiered seating - and unlike most stadium views it also shows the whole structure and its context: the grand entrance, more modern additions around the sides, the scoreboard and the VIP box at the top.

- Reason
- So, this article has already one featured picture but I wonder if it can have more than one. This image does illustrate two other particular properties of fumarolic minerals that are discussed in sources but are currently not very well illustrated - their multicoloured appearance and how they are deposited on the surfaces of rock cavities. As far as I can tell, it was produced by the same technique as the other one.

- Comment – I read the article but don't see specific content that relates to this image, or content that sets this image apart from the infobox image (which is already FP). So I don't see how it adds significant EV to the article (FP criterion 5) over and above what the FP image in the infobox already adds. Bammesk (talk) 01:49, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
- The main distinction is that here the colouration and crust-like appearance [both of which are mentioned in the article] of fumarolic sublimates stand out more than in the lead image. There in turn the hair-like appearance of some accumulates stands out more. Neither image captures all aspects of fumarole minerals perfectly, but together they are closer.

- Reason
- Emmy Noether, one of the top mathematicians of 20th century, contributed to abstract algebra and theoretical physics. Several contributions are named after her, including Noether's theorem which is the mathematical framework of conservation of energy. Following her death, Einstein wrote a letter in the New York Times (May 5, 1935) in recognition of her contributions [7]. The image is shy of the 1500 pixel count, but I think this qualifies for an exception. The image is historic, has high EV and good composition. The original is 1450×2085 pixels, I uploaded it for reference. The white periphery had always been cropped, because it fits the articles better that way, so after doing some minor touchups I cropped the periphery to what it was. This is a renomination after addressing the copyright on Commons here.
