  • Oppose barring a good cleanup: it looks rather noisy. Fletcher (talk) 23:34, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose. The vignetting seems a little heavy, plus it doesn't add much encyclopedic value to Nicaragua. Kaldari (talk) 00:16, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Could be a good addition to Lake Nicaragua. Fletcher (talk) 01:00, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose too noisy. smooth0707 (talk) 01:24, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Noise isn't really the major issue. The vignetting is not encyclopaedic and I don't think its really possible to learn much from the image. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 08:33, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - technical and encyclopaedic quality is low.--Svetovid (talk) 09:13, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Don't know why you added the vignetting, but it ruined it. Clegs (talk) 15:29, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per the points mentioned above: vignetting, extreme noise, low encyclopedic value. —αἰτίας discussion 21:14, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I suppose it does add some value to Cocibolca, as it is the lake the island is in. SpencerT♦C 01:30, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Whoops...didn't realize Fletcher's comment above was the same lake. SpencerT♦C 01:32, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
