    Why not? --A.Savin (talk) 11:07, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Because it's not clear at a glance what the heck it is. This shot is better at that, IMO. – Sca (talk) 12:07, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Strongly disagree. --A.Savin (talk) 13:30, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    No doubt recognizable to boomerang fans, but to the general reader probably not. – Sca (talk) 13:07, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    How is then File:Boomerang.jpg recognizable as boomerang to the general reader? I'm a general reader for sure and for me it rather looks like a Clothes hanger without hook. And it's a terrible photo. --A.Savin (talk) 23:32, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    The shape of that boomerang (admittedly a very low quality photo) is recognizable, but this current candidate looks more like a piece from some Alvar Aalto furniture... ;-) --Janke | Talk 06:47, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
