Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Purge of the Warsaw Ghetto

Warsaw Ghetto liquidation

Reason: OK its grainy admittedly, but the photograph speaks for itself, its almost the picture that represents the Holocaust and for that reason, I think it should be featured; its also high resolution which is fantastic
Articles this image appears in: Warsaw Ghetto

This image is already featured, was nominated a 2nd time, and survived not one but two delist nominations. Cacophony (talk) 00:16, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, I'm confused at how it survived the delist nomination but is somehow not currently labed as a FP. It was POTD on 9/29/06 and is displayed in Wikipedia:Featured pictures/History/War. I think it just needs to be retagged. Cacophony (talk) 00:25, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's this version that's already featured. Do you want a replacement? MER-C 03:28, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This one being nominated now is clearly superior IMO. It has better black levels and the dust/scratches have been removed. Seems to have been done well, I can't see any problems with it. My vote would be to Replace the existing FP with this one. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 07:37, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This is a restored version I did a couple of months ago. At Commons the consensus promoted it, but at en:Wikipedia the editors preferred the unrestored version. So actually right now the two projects have featured different versions of the same photograph. Durova^Charge! 20:55, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Clarification. To set the record straight, NONE of these versions is actually the featured version. In another sign of what as best as I can tell is Commons magnaminity, our featured version Image:Warsaw-Ghetto-Josef-Bloesche-HRedit.jpg was wiped and replaced with the version MER-C links to - see here for where it happened. That's why there was no FP or POTD tags on any version (FWIW I have added them back in to the MER-C version, as that's nearest to the actual featured version). And clearly there's the solution for "Delist and replace" nominations - just do whatever you feel like. --jjron (talk) 08:23, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually the United States Holocaust Museum uploaded the current high resolution featured version when the original upload was nommed for delisting due to size issues. So depending on how the first delisting request is parsed, the current featured version is probably legit. The second delisting was a delist/replace discussion I opened at about the same time the restored version got promoted to FP on Commons. Durova^Charge! 22:57, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  - The original FP wasn't nommed for delisting - it was transferred from Wiki to Commons, then deleted from there. When MER-C saw this he notified us through a 'delist' here, which then saw first the original reuploaded to Wikipedia, then a higher res version uploaded. A slightly edited version of the hi-res was promoted to replace the small original. This is the version that I link to. The images actually showing up in the nominations aren't exactly as they went through, and as I said the actual FP version is gone. The version I've reattached the tags to is close to it, but I think it may be in unedited form, to be honest I couldn't really care anymore; it's near enough. If you want to replace it with your touched up version, then I guess go ahead. --jjron (talk) 07:30, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    - Thanks for filling that in. I put this restoration into consideration once and the community at Commons agreed while the community here didn't. It was surprising to see this subpage had been opened and there seemed to be some confusion about the versions, so I tried to clarify. It's the event that matters and we're lucky that this important image - unlike so many others of the Holocaust - is in the public domain. Durova^Charge! 09:55, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
