University Library of Graz[edit]

front of the new building

The picture is used in the article University Library of Graz. Nominate and neutral, since I am the photographer - Dr. Marcus Gossler 15:22, 9 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment — The bright clouds in the left hand corner distracts from the photo. By the way, in the future, would you mind replacing the "Add your reasons for nominating it here; say what article it appears in, and who created the image." with a nomination statement? Thanks a lot! Flcelloguy (A note?) 19:09, 10 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
The error is now corrected. --Dr. Marcus Gossler 20:44, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per my above comment. Flcelloguy (A note?) 17:18, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I'm not particularly fond of this photo. There really isn't anything spectacular. --vaeiou 03:55, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I know the building. It is amazing what this picture could make out of it. - Kessa Ligerro 13:48, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • That sounds more like a reason to Oppose it. This is still an encyclopedia. Apart from that I do not think it is particularly stunning. --Dschwen 14:55, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
For those of us who don't know the building, the picture seems quite boring. How is it amazing that this is what the picture could make of it? --vaeiou 16:47, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • My statement pointed to the fact that it is very difficult to make a good photo of the modern front of the library, because there is only a dark and narrow gap between it and another quite high building. But in spite of this obstacle the picture looks pretty good. --Kessa Ligerro 20:33, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - Though it is a picture of the building, I don't think that it contributes significantly to its article. If you argued it does significantly add to the article, then we might as well include all half-decent pictures of famous buildings, which we don't want to do. I do think it is a cool angle for the photo, but this photo really isn't what feature photos are supposed to be. P-unit 18:11, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Agree with above, although I would also have opposed for the washed out clouds. Enochlau 22:28, 12 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • ( − ) Oppose Agree with Enochlau --Fir0002 08:02, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
