reluctant oppose Nicely implemented, but I think the model that was used to generate the illustration must have been sickly or dessicated. The abdomen is collapsed and looks almost wasp-like. Compare the profile views of live flies. de Bivort 20:25, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
support with condition I dont know jack about flies, so i wonder as user Bivort does if this is correct. Otherwise 100% support. 76.171.1.235 (talk) 03:41, 6 December 2007 (UTC) anonymous vote deleted —αἰτίας •discussion• 22:04, 8 December 2007 (UTC) [reply]

- That doesn't mean much to me. Still oppose. de Bivort 05:07, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, image needs sources to satisfy WP:V and WP:RS and to show that it is an accurate diagram. --gren グレン 17:56, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Did you have a look at the nom on commons? MER-C 01:22, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

oppose reference in commons nom suggests that model was a Lucilia sericata, not Musca domestica. Samsara (talk • contribs) 06:02, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If that is the only problem then why not just change the caption? Cacophony (talk) 07:28, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Not good, because it's much too unclear, you can lose track very fast. —αἰτίας •discussion• 22:04, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
