Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Five Noble Gases

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 16 Jul 2010 at 05:47:50 (UTC) Colors produced by electric discharge in hydrogen and the stable noble gases. Glass tubes, with a wire wound over each (which directs the plasma flow).

Reason
Very encyclopedic. As all these gases are transparent in their unexcited state, this is the best way to get an image for them. Given the subject, the resolution is ample.
Articles in which this image appears
Noble gas [All but Hydrogen]; Individually used in Hydrogen, Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon.

Could you mark it with Commons' Image notation tool? I can't spot it. Adam Cuerden (talk) 02:41, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I've added one. You can only see it full sized, so there was a level of estimating. J Milburn (talk) 10:38, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, J Milburn found it. It's only visible when the image is full-size. SpencerT♦Nominate! 21:36, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's all of them, promoted. Main page scheduler should note the combined image, File:Glowing noble gases.jpg for possible use (noble gases only). Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 10:33, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
