This image is the product of a collaboration between the German Olympic Sports Confederation and Wikimedia Germany, which I'm sure is something we can all get behind. The Winter Olympics are perhaps not as well-represented on the English Wikipedia as they could be, and portraits make great FPs.
Weak oppose – It's an okay if unexceptional shot, although nose highlights seem slightly blown. But the article is stub and the subject seems rather obscure. (I must admit, though, that the phrase "German Luger" rings a bell. Ha.) Scant EV, nach meiner Meinung. – Sca (talk) 21:20, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm inclined to think that the sole portrait of a person in an article about the person will generally have EV! I'll do my best to expand the article at little, though. Josh Milburn (talk) 17:47, 26 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Can you you explain the collaboration between the German Olympic Sports Confederation and Wikimedia Germany for those of us without any context? chsh (talk) 22:08, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support - Quality is fine, especially for a candid... but weak as there are lots of white specks on his black jacket, as well as a bit of lens flare (very minor) on the left shoulder (viewer's right). — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:52, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support I agree that there are some minor technical issues as noted by Chris, but I think that the strong composition more than outweighs them. This is a good quality portrait. Nick-D (talk) 22:56, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Original – A gold dust day gecko on the island of Hawaii.Edit 1 – Reduced cropping to meet minimum resolution requirements. Corrected extremely slight underexposure, improving detail in eye.
Reason
This image is of high technical quality and accurately illustrates the most prominent features of an average member of the species. In particular, the discrete scale color pattern is clearly visible.
Comment – very expressive and nice photo, but slightly smaller than the 1500 pixel requirement. On a sidenote, we have a full body FP of this gecko: [1], but it doesn't show the face well. Bammesk (talk) 02:34, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, I didn't catch that! I could loosen my crop just a bit and easily meet or exceed the 1500 pixel requirement if needed. Would this be advisable? Can I update the image while it's up for nomination, or should I remove and re-nominate? Steevven1(Talk) (Contribs) (Gallery)04:41, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I see no reason for B/W - furthermore, there is either severe compression artifacting, or a focus problem. Why don't you upload the original file for us to compare with? --Janke | Talk08:09, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - In addition to being ineligible (see above) and awkwardly composed, it is severely overexposed and unsharp. Better luck next time, but do pay attention to all FPC criteria! --Janke | Talk19:25, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose This is a very useful photo, but I'm afraid that the composition isn't of FP quality (eg, it's taken at an angle, with the result that the team and the signage they're posing with is also at an angle) Nick-D (talk) 11:03, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Original – The Xbox is a home video game console and the first installment in the Xbox series of consoles manufactured by Microsoft. Announced in 2000, the Xbox, graphically powerful compared to its rivals, featured a standard PC's 733 MHz Intel Pentium III processor. It was also noted for its PC-like size and weight, and was the first console to feature a built-in hard disk. The "Controller S" (codenamed "Akebono"), a smaller, lighter Xbox controller, was originally the standard Xbox controller only in Japan, designed for users with smaller hands.
Reason
Very high quality image displaying the console's and the controller's look
Support - Frankly, Evan's whole line of product photography could be featured. At this point, the original Xbox has been off the market long enough that I don't think there are any promotional issues. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 08:09, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
