1909 Tulsa Panorama[edit]

Original - A 1909 panorama of Tulsa, the second-largest city in the state of Oklahoma and 45th-largest in the United States.
Edit1 - 2 major vertical stitch gaps 1/4 and 1/2 way from left closed up and three less obvious seams smoothed over by Mfield.
Reason
This is a wonderful photo that shows the amount of growth that the city of Tulsa, Oklahoma went through only two years after Oklahoma became a state. It is very fine quality with high resolution and illustrates the article, History of Tulsa, Oklahoma very well.

  • Reluctant Oppose - wonderful scene, and it's great to see a panorama that's this old, but there's two major vertical stitching errors - the first roughly x=784 pixels from left, and the second at x=3122. Oppose until these are corrected. See below.Vanderdeckenξφ 11:29, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Edit1 - I closed up the gap and added Edit1. I will have a further examination and see if there's anything more to fix/repair and if so I will replace. Mfield (talk) 19:16, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Check the spots Vanderdecken mentioned. There are a few other extremely minor stitching problems too (eg. 1257px from left on edit 1), but they're bordering on imperceptible. Thegreenj 20:45, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • Fixed the other major stitch error too, replaced Edit 1 with new version. Mfield (talk) 20:52, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        • Fixed another three, replaced it again. I am pretty certain I have got them all now. Mfield (talk) 23:40, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Fixed, change vote to Strong Support edit 1. —Vanderdeckenξφ 07:21, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Edit 1. The image is quite encyclopedic, and Mfield did a good job fixing the errors. NauticaShades 02:40, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Edit 1 Per above.--Fireaxe888 (talk) 09:37, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Am I crazy or does there still seem to be a tiny error at approximately x=3,8000 (guess) at the very bottom. Not a huge deal, I suppose, but it's still there. Crassic! (talk) 17:13, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Now you see it, now you don't? Mfield (talk) 17:24, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Edit 1 nice found, will do much good for the content illustration. M.K. (talk) 16:06, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Edit 1 A good historic image. This pic was taken 99 years ago. My grandmother was born in 1909. And she is still living.(^^)/ Laitche (talk) 21:30, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
