Comment. I'm confused. It says the creator is Sxenko, but the only name I can find in the file history is Lipton sale - can you explain? Also you might like to check the Featured picture criteria; Criterion 5 is Adds value to an article. This image is only used in the gallery in a single very minor article, which would not generally be regarded as satisfying this criterion. --jjron (talk) 09:13, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, accidently put down my AIM screen name. I have also added it to a few articles wherein it would help. Lipton sale (talk) 09:59, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I had a funny suspicion about the nominator. I'm of the opinion he is a block evading sockpuppet, see Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Sxenko. MER-C 10:02, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - Poor focus on crown. --Sean 14:07, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Would have been an easy Support, but the DOF issues (as noted by Sean) make it a non-starter for me. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 20:11, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
