Kept --Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 23:55, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delist and replace Far better. You can also use a sharpened and denoised version here if you want, created with the excellent (but not free) software Topaz Denoise AI -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:29, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Basile, I agree, your edit is an improvement. I think it's best that you do the uploading, not me. Could you please upload it on top of the existing version on this page. I will update the credits. Thanks. Bammesk (talk) 01:54, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done No need to credit me, I did nothing except run the software with the default values. -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:28, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

D&R – Visually more accessible. – Sca (talk) 14:09, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Replace, prefer the denoised version. MER-C 16:16, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Per MER-C. --Janke | Talk 16:35, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Replace - like the replacement. Denoised & more detailed than original --Kalyan (talk) 15:39, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delisted

Delist: Red wattlebird

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 8 Jan 2021 at 11:46:11 (UTC)

Delist, although it's somewhat automatic at this point. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.8% of all FPs} 17:14, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delist in cases like this could indeed be made directly by an admin. --Janke | Talk 18:37, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- It's in the rules. No usage at the end of a delist is grounds for delisting, regardless of votes. The delist serves as warning to put it in articles of it's not to be auto-delisted, but that's unlikely in this case.

Delist: Veined Leaf

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 9 May 2021 at 01:03:24 (UTC)

Reason: Relatively low resolution (1,024 × 768 px), partially blurry, lots of JPEG artifacting. (Plus the plant is unidentified, limiting the image's encylopedic value.)
Articles this image appears in: Leaf, Plant, Ecology, Photosynthesis, etc.

Delist: UK Roundabout 8 Cars

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 23 May 2021 at 15:23:47 (UTC)

Reason: As much as it's a useful gif for demonstrating how roundabouts work, it's definitely not the best we can offer and most definitely not a featured picture a decade-and-a-half after being promoted. Our standards have changed and this is a low-quality stuttering 25 frame gif that arguably has many of the cars driving dangerously (and therefore not a very educational gif in regard to road safety). Undeniably fails WP:FP?#3 and arguably WP:FP?#2.

Delist: Holoplatys semiplanata with scale

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 24 Nov 2021 at 23:16:39 (UTC)

Reason: Image is below current minimum resolution requirements (1,600 × 1,067 pixels); the scale is just a guess according to the original FPC discussion (based on measurements of a different spider); the licensing is crappy (CC-BY-NC + GFDL 1.2-only); and natural backgrounds are now preferred for animal photos (AFAICT).
