  • Support as nominator – — Cirt (talk) 00:24, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - Something like slosh dynamics would be better served by a video or GIF. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 10:42, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Very extravagant photo! --Tremonist (talk) 13:24, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. While the image is interesting in an artistic sense, the composition, with its deliberately juxtaposed elements, detracts from the scientific aspect of the sloshing itself. --Paul_012 (talk) 16:04, 20 October 2015 (UTC) PS The article also appears to deal with fluids within enclosed bodies, so this photo isn't illustrative of the discussed concepts. --Paul_012 (talk) 13:21, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agree with Opposes. This is a fake image, the "wine" in the bottle is gelatine! It was quite discombobulating before I checked the image info... --Janke | Talk 06:39, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • The carafe is filled with gelatine, not the wine glass. They used gelatine in the carafe so that it would not move when they sloshed the wine that is in the wine glass. Jujutacular (talk) 21:56, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support High encyclopedic value and the juxtaposed elements increase the relevance and understanding of the topic. Schematics only go so far to explain, this is far better. Also the opposition seems to be based on a misunderstanding. CFCF 💌 📧 10:50, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose as above. CFCF, if you believe there is a mistake here, please explain it. Juju appears to have misunderstood Janke's objection. Josh Milburn (talk) 18:26, 26 October 2015
  • I was about to comment on that, yes, Juju must have misunderstood. I clearly stated the gelatine is in the bottle. For me, this image is a typical advertising agency shot for a wine commercial, not something that illustrates a physical phenomenomenomenon... ;-) --Janke | Talk 06:37, 27 October 2015 (UTC) (UTC)[reply]
