- Reason
- A rather masterful illustration of a "fictional relationship that causes controversy", a concept somewhat difficult to illustrate through CC! My friend drew this image on my suggestion for the Shipping discourse article.

- Comment - I'm torn. On the oppose end, Wikipe-tan and Commons-tan are not prominent figures in the shipping community, and being abstract idealizations of these projects, they don't have set ages that illustrate the age gap in a meaningful fashion. On the support end, we're not going to get free images of the copyrighted characters that dominate the shipping community, and frankly I love the Renoir vibes. This is a useful image... I'm just not sure that it meets the FP threshold. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 16:30, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment – Perhaps it is a personal failure with recognizing emotion in art, but I could not discern that this was meant to be a romantic context without the caption. Even so, I'm not going to vote yes or no on this one. ―Howard • 🌽33 17:18, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment - it was added to the article today... --Janke | Talk 18:21, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose – Beyond the ken of most Eng.-lang. readers. – Sca (talk) 12:40, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
- Support - It's a beautiful art piece IMO and the image is educationally useful. I'm not sure that I agree with the argument about it being "beyond the ken" of readers, since Wikipedia exists to help people learn and understand subjects they may have had no prior understanding of. FP has also featured technical and scientific charts and diagrams, which I imagine are at least a little difficult for average readers to understand without further reading.

- Support I believe it's somewhat using Japanese artistic tropes to dshow the relationship, which suits the characters. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.9% of all FPs. 16:51, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
