The image is high-quality. Would have rather had better dating of it, Mr. Smithsonian Institution Who Should Know Better, but we can narrow it down enough that it's not excessive. Edit: About 19421. I found a very similar photograph published in an industry journal in February 1942, and Penny Richards traced it to a newspaper in 1941, so... She started her career off as a professor teaching Chemistry to Home Economics students - and showed just how much you can do with that kind of thing, because she was really good at research on nutrition and such, and it eventually lead to her working for NASA in helping astronauts maintain bone density.
Support as article creator (six years ago!) – It's not-so-common for academic women of her generation to have a high-quality portrait, so this is wonderful to highlight; and the NASA connection is definitely a bonus. Penny Richards (talk) 02:50, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Original – Katherine Johnson, mathematician whose orbital mechanics calculations were vital to the success of NASA's early crewed spacecraft flights, including the Apollo program.
Reason
Quite a nice image, immaculately preserved - I added this to my queue, then took it off because I couldn't find a speck. Lead image of the article on her.

Original – NASA engineer Mary Jackson poses with a model in a wind tunnel at NASA Langley.
Reason
While not the lead image, it helps illustrate the variety of work she did. She was NASA's first black female engineer, after all. She worked in wind tunnels.
Why not? I think that, if we only accept one photo per subject, we end up with our good illustrations being lost in a sea of mediocre ones also in the articles. Better to accept multiple images that are each distinct than encourage a philosophy of all the other photos in an article being poor-quality.

Comment - I'm not loving the composition on this one. The lights at the top are especially distracting. I think a much tighter crop would be an improvement. Kaldari (talk) 17:56, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Sca and Kaldari: I think that's inevitable for this image's EV. We could crop a bit, but a lot of the busy-ness is giving information about the wind tunnel, and if you crop out the wind tunnel, you're just left with an image redundant to and a bit worse than the lead one.

So, uh... I have insomnia. And you can probably guess from my recent activity here what I do when I have insomnia. But I will say this is a pretty strong image, I love "People at work images", and I just spent about... four, four and a half hours cleaning this one up. Think some of the marks look like scuffs, so I left those in. Oh, I should probably point out the curves adjustment. I'm rather proud of that: Was able to recover a fair bit of detail in the bright whites, which is always nice. I'd imagine this was shot a bit on the over-exposed side as, well, frankly, film stock was calibrated for white people - but at least the photographer making the effort to work around them means that she is well-photgraphed. Oh, and for the record, this is the poster: https://www.lpi.usra.edu/resources/mapcatalog/LEM/ - the apparent smear on the left of the moon is definitely a real lunar feature.
I don't know if I can vote but this object is a good memory for me who had the opportunity to hold it in my hand.

Comment - This image is very disorienting to me. It seems to be two harpoons floating in space with shadows going in different directions.

Kaldari (talk) 19:14, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Original – DeFord Bailey in the 1970s, probably upon his first public performance in 30 years
Reason
This is a unique image of a historic figure in the latter years of his life. DeFord Bailey was the first performer to appear on The Grand Old Opry radio show and is only one of two African-American inductees in the Country Music Hall of Fame. His photo clearly fulfills the following FP parameters: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. I understand that 1, 2, & 3 are more concerned with the technical aspects and perhaps this image might not be thought of as fulfilling these criteria, but it is possible that this photo fulfills 1, 2, & 3. It is a singular photo of a unique African-American man in American musical history. Mr Bailey is deceased and it is the only photo of Mr. Bailey available on Commons. Yes, I agree the technical aspects of criteria 1 & 2 are important but I think the historical aspects of this photo should be taken into consideration as well.
Comment - The cleanup couldn't bring back the details lost in the original scan due to overly high contrast (lost detail in highlights and shadows, probably due to scanning from a photographic print (confirmed, looking at original scan), not an original negative/slide). For this reason, my original oppose stands. --Janke | Talk17:58, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Independent of other issues, I'm not sure about the restoration. Comparing to the original, the image now seems significantly noisier (looking particularly at his hat) and to have lost detail in places (looking particularly at his tie). I don't know if this is through the actual filters applied, or repeated saving? The biggest difference seems to be in the last two edits. TSP (talk) 19:54, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The film grain is slightly more noticeable in the brighter areas now, instead of being blown out. Chroma noise and posterization are reduced though. (Hohum@) 20:54, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
She's one of those people who have a complicated career, so it's a little hard to summarise, but, suffice to say, a notable Army nurse who was one of the first two nurses to be given the rank of Colonel, and set up neuropsychiatric hospitals in the South West Pacific Area during WWII as Assistant Director of Nursing, amongst other things.
Comment While Slovakia is a beautiful country, there are better pictures of it on Commons. You are more likely to show encyclopedic value for a narrower topic. And as Janke said, the chromatic aberration reduces the quality of the image. (t · c) buidhe19:12, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support It's a great image of a very interesting building by a notable architect couple. It may not be immediately obvious that it's a church (known locally as the 'soul silo'!), but it's basically a re-imagining of the cathedral, and especially the interior is gorgeous.

Question I don't think we should make this sort of assumption. BUT, I've read through the FP criteria and I cannot find any guideline that excludes stub articles. I have assumed, because my images in stub articles have been rejected, that article size is a criteria. Opinions anyone? Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:09, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"because my images in stub articles have been rejected", could you give us some examples please (where article size was the reason for rejection), so that we are all on the same page? Bammesk (talk) 15:15, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
My understanding is that it's not a requirement, but if notability isn't established, that can sink a nom, obviously. More relevant to Charles' question is that a failure to have a reasonably long article will block POTD, and some people will vote accordingly. Adam Cuerden(talk)Has about 7.6% of all FPs18:18, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Here is my take, I go by one or two paragraphs, not one or two sentences. For a notable subject, it shouldn't be much effort to have one or two paragraphs. Criterion 5 says "Adds significant encyclopedic value to an article and helps readers to understand an article". If an article, for all practical purposes, is not written, then the image can't add significant EV to what is not-there-to-be-understood. Bammesk (talk) 15:23, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Here's one example where, in my opinion, having a male and female in a short article is good EV: Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Blue-legged chameleon female. "one or two paragraphs, not one or two sentences" may make sense, but we should have a policy. Taking an extreme example I have not nominated File:Hemiolaus cobaltina.jpg, How can readers understand the 1/2 line article without this picture? Suitability for POTD is not mentioned in FP Criteria: perhaps it should be. I am NOT pushing for stub articles to have FPs, I just want a sound policy. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:17, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding "How can readers understand the 1/2 line article [1] without this picture?": There isn't anything to understand, because the article isn't written. The 1/2 line is a placeholder, it isn't an article. Bammesk (talk) 20:41, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Original – Granville Stuart, known as "Mr. Montana", whose journals and writings form one of the most important documentations of Montana's rise to statehood. To quote the lead of his article, "pioneer, gold prospector, businessman, civic leader, vigilante, author, cattleman and diplomat"
Reason
A fine photo of the sort of person who's easily neglected outwith his state.
Found this while prepping the Signpost Featured content page for this month. A rather impressive and dynamic image of the artist's show. Certainly a bit out of the ordinary.

Original – Clara McAdow, 19th century Montana businesswoman and mine owner
Reason
A fascinating woman - one of the most successful mine owners in Montana, a genius at business, and I've heard her declared a modern woman in the Victorian era. It's a nice photo, did need a bit of work - lots of damage. Also, is it just me, or is "square" as an image option way larger than any of the other image layout types?
My two cents about the DOF and crop: I see both as artistic effects (or choices). This is a portrait of a person, the focal point is her face and it's sharp where it should be. Reviews on DOF and crop are valid subjective critiques though. On the technical side: there isn't much of a range in setting the DOF. Capturing the ambient lit background and the fill flash foreground limits the aperature/exposure time/ISO settings. A deeper DOF could introduce motion blur or noise. It would also sharpen the bokeh, which isn't the intent here. This is a well done photo technically IMO. Bammesk (talk) 18:03, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support – A bit oversharpened, IMO. Interestingly, this perspective "squashes" the high rock into the landscape, so you don't see it as in the other pctures in the article. --Janke | Talk10:18, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Only featured in the unnecessary gallery in the article. Slightly overprocessed (sharpening, shadows/highlights), but my main concern is the composition: the viewpoint is not ideal, too much foreground. If the main subject is the town, why so wide panorama? Would be better if 30-40 % of the photo would be cropped from the right. I would love to see a drone shot in the evening sun. —kallerna13:26, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Original – A female aeshna affinis, top view
Reason
Was seen on Commons FPC last month, where it was featured unanimously. Well executed focus stack that shows an aspect of the subject the infobox images don't.
Oppose It would be good if just spot Janke saw would be problem. I added on photo much more biger issues. Around head etc. Also, Color space is not RGB but Uncalibrated. Adobe PS cant solve this, even Helicon can't. Some spaces always need manual correction. Depth card is OK, those parts are not missing, so photographer could add them. I need something like 5-6 h of work for such photo. This one was shot in morning and uploaded afternoon. I do that more like in few days than hours. Bammesk usualy have sharp eye ;).

Original – Detailed closeup of a Clanculus ormophorus sea snail. Snails are typically 0.7 inches in size (18 mm). This specimen is 17mm, from coast of Oman.
Reason
High quality detailed image of a Clanculus ormophorus sea snail. Snails are typically 0.7 inches in size (18 mm).
I see it now. It's pronounced on the peripheries, not the middle!? perhaps it's amplified by iridescence or some physical property of the shells, rather than an optical or photographic defect. Bammesk (talk) 19:11, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I think it's photographic. This is a composite photo of the same shell, and I see purple fringing in all of them. Not enough that I'll oppose, though. --Janke | Talk10:12, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Janke, yes it's a composite. I didn't mean the periphery of the photograph, I meant the periphery of the shell (in each profile), that's where the purple fringing is. The periphery has a steep angle with respect to the camera, but the middle portion has little to no angle. I am suggesting perhaps the steep angle brings out the unusual scattering of light, due to iridescence or some other physical property, as opposed to photographic/lens imperfections. Bammesk (talk) 01:38, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Taking into account that the size of the shell is only 17 mm across, and probably shot with a zoom lens (at 47 mm) with extension ring(s) or with a diopter close-up lens, my bet is on chromatic aberration, not iridiscence. (BTW: I'd really like to know how that mollusk manages making those little bumps alternate light/dark on the shell... ;-) --Janke | Talk22:21, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support I think it's probably iridescence. And given the size, this is a pretty extreme zoom, so some minor imperfections are pretty acceptable. I estimate this at around a 20x zoom on my screen by a rough estimate, if the original is 17 mm, so some imperfections are natural. Adam Cuerden(talk)Has about 7.7% of all FPs23:08, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Having hard crispy outlines against the black background at points of the shell where the interior outlines appear blurred and fringed by shallow dof and chromatic aberration (most noticeably at the upper right near the mouth of the shell) makes this look too fake to me, regardless of whether that is the way it was actually shot. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:40, 14 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The picture is taken from an angle that makes the house seem somehow distorted, you don’t get a proper feeling of the volumes of the building. Yakikaki (talk) 21:11, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Good lighting and detail on an encyclopedic-enough building but at high resolution this is a bit soft for my taste. More importantly I find the cluttered background confusing. It's what's there in the scene and hard to do much around, but for instance it makes the skylight on the building look at first like a distant unrelated building on the hilltop behind it, and the same for the white trim on the left side of the roof. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:08, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. For me the foreground cars spoil this. I'd much rather this could have been shot at a time when the lot was empty. But here's a possible alternative CSS crop, which I'd be willing to support:

Original – Mathematician Emmy Noether, early 1900s
Reason
Emmy Noether, one of the top mathematicians of 20th century, contributed to abstract algebra and theoretical physics. Several contributions are named after her, including Noether's theorem which is the mathematical framework of conservation of energy. Following her death, Einstein wrote a letter in the New York Times (May 5, 1935) in recognition of her contributions [2]. The image is shy of the 1500 pixel count, but I think this qualifies for an exception. The image is historic, has high EV and good composition. The original is 1450×2085 pixels, I uploaded it for reference. The white periphery had always been cropped, because it fits the articles better that way, so after doing some minor touchups I cropped the periphery to what it was.
I can't find a source so I am not sure it was published pre 1925. Here is what I found (I am not a copyright expert, so correct me if I am wrong). These two sources [3], [4] suggest copyright ownership by her family (in footnotes: Emiliana and Monica), which suggests copyright ownership by Emmy Noether herself. 1- if the image was first published pre 1925, then it is PD in U.S., 2- if the image was first published after her death in 1935, then it is PD in U.S. 70 years after her death, i.e. post 2005, 3- if the image was first published between 1925 and her death in 1935, then a copyright renewal must have been filed 28 years later, from 1952 to 1963, or else the image is in PD in U.S. I did a search for her name in the online copyright registration and renewal records from 1952 to 1963 and found reference to only one item, this book. The book was first published in 1930 (volume 1) and 1931 (volume 2) in Germany, and multiple later editions exist. Whether the book includes this photo (at the time a 20 year old photo) is unlikely, but it is verifiable. Bammesk (talk) 18:52, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The English translation of the book is available at the internet archive volume 1, volume 2 (published around 1950). I looked through them and there are no images or photographs in them. I placed an inquiry at Commons:Administrators' noticeboard diff. If there is no clearing up of the copyright, I would have no objection to withdrawing this nomination.

Original – Viscosity demonstration. The fluid on the left has a lower viscosity than the fluid on the right.
Reason
(nominating on behalf of Synapticrelay who has been inactive for several months) The animation meets all the criteria of a featured picture and Synapticrelay deserves our formal gratitude for creating such an outstanding illustration of the concept. It has a max resolution, as an animated image, of 1,400 × 1,080, but it was dialed back to 600 × 463 for size considerations. But animated images are allowed to be smaller. It is otherwise clear and focused and has no display issues. In my opinion, it is certainly among Wikipedia's best work. I simply cannot think of a better illustration of viscosity and it immediately explains the concept to lay-readers. It is verifiable by common knowledge or any physics or engineering textbook mentioning the topic. The caption could probably be expanded, but the quality of the animation is such that very little needs to be said about it. No digital manipulation. Again, thank you, Synapticrelay, for creating and uploading this amazing picture. Footlessmouse (talk) 00:58, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Instantly gets the concept across without need for annotation.

Synapticrelay (talk) 02:19, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Charlesjsharp: Hi! I believe you may have misunderstood the caption: the fluid with the higher viscosity, the orange fluid on the right, flows slower than the other. Viscosity is a continuum: the viscosity of water is (in terms of dynamic viscosity at NTP) on order of 10-3 Pa*s while the viscosity of corn syrup is on order of 100 Pa*s. (Going out further, the viscosity of most glasses are of order 1018+ Pa*s) So the animation is basically just an illustration of the difference in fluid flow for two liquids with viscosities differing by about four orders of magnitude. We can reword the caption if you believe it is confusing. Please let me know if you have any questions or if I have misinterpreted your comment. I hope this helps.

Original – Annotated 3D rendering of Mount Everest and surrounding terrain based on data from the US National Snow and Ice Data Center and Landsat 8.

This CC0 render is high-resolution, attractive, and shows the form of the terrain better than the existing 2D maps and satellite photographs. File:Everest-3D-Map-No-Type.jpg is a version without annotation, if preferred.

^Weak Oppose The image is fantastic, but the usage is terrible. It's not even used at a size that the labels can be read. On Commons, this would be a clear support, but here, where usage counts, I can't in good faith do so: This is so buried that it feels like a mere afterthought. Even in the section "Context and maps" it's an afterthought to a much larger satellite image. I can't imagine anyone clicking on it and seeing it large enough to appreciate the detail.
It's 347px wide in this nomination, and that's enough to look prety good. In article usage, though, it's 220px wide in the article, and shoved in next to a 600px image-mapped satellite image thumbnail, which is clearly the main focus of the secion. We can have more than one FP per article, but this is, at best, a Dwarf FP: Like a dwarf planet, it doesn't count as a real FP because it does not dominate its region of space.

@Cmglee: As for the criterion in question, it's not spelled out as this is kind of an unusual situation, but Criterion 5 requires an FP "Adds significant encyclopedic value to an article and helps readers to understand an article." - if it's buried in a sea of images, too small to make out, and other images are more obviously being used for the purpose it's meant to, it's not really adding value, or helping readers understand it.
