- Also, the top image is the one selected as FP at Commons. An older version is the one selected as FP here at English Wikipedia. The old version also does not meet current FP criteria. Good kitty 18:15, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delist Could have been a good picture, but those patches do detract from it. vlad§inger ^tlk 02:00, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The quality is rather good compared to quite a lot of the hurrican/cyclone pictures here at Wikipedia. NauticaShad e s 17:05, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- The editor chose to save it as a medium-low quality jpeg, which is the biggest issue with the image. Also, if you look at the original, you will see that the colors aren't natural at all. It should not be categorized as 'Natural phenomena.' I understand that an image of a penny was also delisted for blatant photoshopping. Also, there are thousands of hurricane/cyclone pictures at Wikipedia and Commons, and this does not represent the best of them all. Good kitty 02:16, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - I uploaded the original, which in somewhat better condition. Feel free to try color correcting it. NauticaShad e s 21:32, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
