These are the candidates to become valued images. Please note that this is not the same as featured pictures or quality images. If you simply want some feedback on your pictures you can get that at photography critiques.

Single images can be proposed for valued image (VI) status. Candidates must be proposed as being the most valuable of all Commons' images within a specified scope. Judging is carried out according to the valued image criteria.

A Most Valued Review (MVR) is opened where there are two or more candidates competing within essentially the same scope.

The rules for promotion can be found at Commons:Valued image candidates/Promotion rules.

An image which has previously been declined can be renominated within the same scope only if the issues leading to the original decline have been addressed. Previously nominated images that were closed as "undecided" can be renominated at any time. Once a candidate achieves VI or VIS status it can normally be demoted only if some better candidate replaces it during an MVR.

If you would like to nominate an image for VI status, please do so following the instructions below. If you are proposing a better candidate within essentially the same scope as an image which already has VI status, please open an MVR.

How to nominate an image for VI status[edit]

Nominations will be evaluated using the criteria listed at Commons:Valued image criteria. Please read those criteria before submitting an image to help cut down on the number of candidates that have a low chance of success. Make sure you understand the concept of scope and how to choose the correct scope for your nomination.

Please make sure that your proposed image fulfills all of the necessary criteria before nominating it. For example, if it needs to be geocoded, do that in advance. If no appropriate categories exist, create and link them beforehand. Although some reviewers may help by fixing minor issues during the review process, it is your responsibility as nominator to ensure your image ticks all the necessary boxes before you propose it. If you nominate an image that ignores one of the criteria, don't be surprised if it fails VI review.

Adding a new nomination (image)[edit]

Step 1: Copy the image name into this box (excluding the File: prefix), at the end of the text already present in the box, for example, Commons:Valued image candidates/My-image-filename.jpg. Then click on the "Create new nomination" button.


Step 2: Follow the instructions on the page that you are taken to, and save the resulting VIC subpage.

Step 3: Manually add the candidate image towards the end of Commons:Valued image candidates/candidate list (under the heading "New valued image nominations"), as the last parameter in the VICs template. Click here, and append the following line as the last parameter of the relevant section:

|My-image-filename.jpg

so that it looks like this: 

{{VICs
 ...
 |My-image-filename.jpg
}}

and save the candidate list.

Renomination[edit]

Declined VICs can be renominated by any registered user, but only after one or more of the root cause(s) leading to a decline has/have been addressed. Undecided VICs can be renominated as is although it is still recommended to consider and fix issue(s) which may have hindered a promotion of the candidate in the previous review.

Besides fixing issues with the previous nomination the following procedure shall be followed upon renomination.

Step 1: Edit the candidate subpage you intend to renominate. All declined and undecided VICs are placed in either Category:Declined valued image candidates, or Category:Undecided valued image candidates and sorted by the date of the previous nomination.

Step 2: Replace the previous nomination date and time by pasting in 

|date={{subst:VI-time}}

Step 3: Replace the "undecided" or "declined" status with "nominated" (or "discussed" if you intend to add it to a Most Valued Review).

Step 4: If the previous nominator was a different user replace the nominator parameter with 

|nominator=~~~

Step 5: If the candidate does not already have an archive link to previous reviews: Create one using the following procedure.

  • Cut the text in the previous review section (leave the closing braces "}}")
  • replace the review parameter with
|review=
{{subst:VIC-archive}}
}}
  • Save the page.
  • There is now a red link to Previous reviews. Click the link to create the archive subpage and paste in the previous reviews.
  • Save the previous reviews archive page

Step 6: Add the candidate to the candidates list.

How to open a Most Valued Review[edit]

There must be at least two candidates competing within essentially the same scope to open an MVR. Each needs its own VIC subpage, which should be created as above if it does not already exist, but with status set to "discussed". Then, add the following section at the end of the page Commons:Valued image candidates/Most valued review candidate list: 

=== Scope ===
{{VICs
  |candidate1.jpg
  |candidate2.jpg
}}

where Scope is the scope of both images, and candidate1.jpg and candidate2.jpg are the respective candidates. If need be, also remove the relevant image(s) from the list in Pending valued image candidates

If one of the candidates is an existing VI within essentially the same scope, the original VIC subpage is re-opened for voting by changing its status to status=discussed and new reviews are appended to the original VIC subpage. However, any original votes are not counted within the MVR.

The status parameter of each candidate should remain set to "discussed" while the MVR is ongoing.

How to review the candidates[edit]

How to review an image[edit]

Any registered user can review the valued image candidates. Comments are welcome from everyone, but neither the nominator nor the original image author may vote (that does not exclude voting from users who have edited the image with a view to improving it).

Nominations should be evaluated using the criteria listed at Commons:Valued image criteria. Please read those and the page on scope carefully before reviewing. Reviewing here is a serious business, and a reviewer who just breezes by to say "I like it!" is not adding anything of value. You need to spend the time to check the nomination against every one of the six VI criteria, and you also need to carry out searches to satisfy yourself on the "most valuable" criterion.

Review procedure[edit]

  • On the review page the image is presented in the review size. You are welcome to view the image in full resolution by following the image links, but bear in mind that it is the appearance of the image at review size which matters.
  • Check the candidate carefully against each of the six VI criteria. The criteria are mandatory, and to succeed the candidate has to satisfy all six.
  • Use the where used field, if provided, to study the current usage of the candidate in Wikimedia projects. If you find usage of interest do add relevant links to the nomination.
  • Look for other images of the same kind of subject by following the links to relevant categories in the image page, and to any Commons galleries.
    • If you find another image which is already a VI within essentially the same scope, the candidate and the existing VI should be moved to Most Valued Review (MVR) to determine which one is the more valued.
    • If you find one or more other images which in your opinion are equally or more valued images within essentially the same scope, you should nominate these images as well and move all the candidates to an MVR.
  • Once you have made up your mind, edit the review page and add your vote or comment to the review parameter as follows:
You type You get When
*{{Comment}} My Comment. -- ~~~~ You have a comment.
*{{Info}} My information. -- ~~~~ You have information.
*{{Neutral}} Reason for neutral vote. -- ~~~~
  •  Neutral Reason for neutral vote. -- Example
 You are uncertain or wish to record a neutral vote.
*{{Oppose}} Reason for opposing vote. -- ~~~~
  •  Oppose Reason for opposing vote. -- Example
 You think that the candidate fails one or more of the six mandatory criteria.
*{{Question}} My question. -- ~~~~ You have a question.
*{{Support}} Reason for supporting. -- ~~~~
  •  Support Reason for supporting. -- Example
 You think that the candidate meets all of the six mandatory criteria.
  • If the nomination fails one of the six criteria, but in a way that can be fixed, you can optionally let the nominator know what needs to be done using the {{VIF}} template.
  • Your comment goes immediately before the final closing braces "}}" on the page.
How to update the status
  • Finally, change the status of the nomination if appropriate:
    • status=nominated When no votes or only neutral votes have been added to the review field (blue image border).
    • status=supported When there is at least one {{Support}} vote but no {{Oppose}} votes (light green image border).
    • status=opposed When there is at least one {{Oppose}} vote but no {{Support}} votes (red image border).
    • status=discussed When there is at least one {{Oppose}} vote and one {{Support}} vote (yellow image border).


Remember the criteria: 1. Most valuable 2. Suitable scope 3. Illustrates well 4. Fully described 5. Geocoded 6. Well categorized.

Changes in scope during the review period[edit]

The nominator is allowed to make changes in scope as the review proceeds, for example in response to reviewer votes or comments. Whenever a scope is changed the nominator should post a signed comment at the bottom of the review area using {{VIC-scope-change|old scope|new scope|--~~~~}}, and should also leave a note on the talk page of all existing voters asking them to reconsider their vote. A support vote made before the change of scope is not counted unless it is reconfirmed afterwards; an oppose vote is counted unless it is changed or withdrawn.

You can submit new nominations starting on COM:VIC.

Scope:
Panthera leo (lion) - dominant adult male protecting pride territory
  •  Support Useful & used.--Agnes Monkelbaan (talk) 04:40, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Excellent image – fine for QI, and congratulations on FP. Unfortunately, IMHO the scope of an individual lion named Snyggve (sadly now passed) is much too narrow for a VI nomination.
Per COM:VIS guidance on scopes for animals - one VI per species is the norm (OK on that); and/or sub-species (fine for additional VIs on those as well); with separate sub-scopes for identifiable adult, cub, male, female etc. (fine there too); various animal behaviors - in chase of prey, fighting, mating etc. (fine on all those as well).
A scope that represents an individual lion-by-specific-name does not represent “a generic field or category within which your image is the most valuable example” per COM:VIS. It is a description of what your image represents but is too narrow as a VI scope. Can you find a better scope within the dozen or so possibilities above that Snyggve (now sadly passed) might represent? --GRDN711 (talk) 00:40, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The thing is that Snyggve (and Tryggve) is a quite famous lion : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, etc. Just like famous persons (like recent VIC nominations) can have a scope for themselves, I think a famous animal like this one should also be able to have it. This lion is indeed quite famous and the scope would allow someone wanting to do a search query to directly find it. In the light of these elements, don't you think the current scope could fit @GRDN711? If not, please tell me what you think of these alternative scope suggestions : "Panthera leo (lion), sitting" (almost no other image of a lion sitting, only lying), "Panthera leo (lion), scanning the horizon" or "Panthera leo (lion), looking at vultures". Thank you in advance for your answer. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 16:37, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment Being temporarily famous may be important for the human imagination but lions do not care. Notoriety is not associated with lion classification or behavior. Also, sadly, some of your references are obituary notices for Snyggve aka Bob….
One scope related to lion behavior that comes to mind is “Panthera leo (lion) - dominant adult male protecting pride territory”. I have yet to review the 200 images in your scope link category for other images that would also meet this scope definition, but this or something similar might be considered. --GRDN711 (talk) 23:17, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Lions do not care but it is humans that use commons and care. I think that if a lion is that famous that even BBC, Whashington Post and many many other medias talk about it, this particular lion should deserve its own scope just like there is one scope for every notorious human. If a lion is famous, it is known and people that know it will want to search directly for it. Anyway, thank you for your scope suggestion, I edited the scope to use it. (I think "Panthera leo (lion), male sitting" could fit too as there is only 2-3 lions sitting (and not lying) in the gallery). Pinging all the voters : Agnes Monkelbaan, GRDN711 and Tagooty. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 12:44, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Scope changed from Panthera leo (lion), Snyggve to Panthera leo (lion) - dominant adult male protecting pride territory --Giles Laurent (talk) 12:45, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Please notify previous voters of this change. Remember: "A support vote that was made before a change of scope is not counted unless it is reconfirmed afterwards; an oppose vote is counted unless it is changed or withdrawn".
  •  Support with revised scope. While there are others, image quality for an image taken in the wild is excellent. This lion looks both regal and watchful in a way that is better than others. --GRDN711 (talk) 18:21, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment The scope is ok. The image does not depict the behaviour "protecting", no signs of an intruder or of aggression. There are dozens of similar images of lions standing and walking. This image and this one depict behaviour that could be aggressive. As of now, my oppose remains. --Tagooty (talk) 03:34, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Procedural points: (1) "A support vote that was made before a change of scope is not counted unless it is reconfirmed afterwards". The vote is currently 1 s, 1 o as Agnes Monkelbaan has not reconfirmed. (2) Per COM:VIP, a nomination can be closed "only if more than 48 hours have passed since the last vote ( Support, Neutral, or Oppose)." Hence, I've changed back to Discuss to allow sufficient time for opinions. --Tagooty (talk) 07:07, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support Useful & Used --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 05:22, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Agree with QI/FP ratings and like this image of Tryggve (also sadly passed), even better than the one of his brother lion, Snyggve. However, IMHO the nominated scope is also too narrow. Yours is the only image of this particular lion-by-name in the scope link category of 200 male lions. Can you think of a better VI scope?
The thing is that Tryggve (and Snyggve) is a quite famous lion : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, etc. Just like famous persons (like recent VIC nominations) can have a scope for themselves, I think a famous animal like this one should also be able to have it.

In the light of these elements, don't you think the current scope could fit @GRDN711?

Thank you in advance for your answer. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 16:42, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment “Panthera leo (lion), dominant adult male - full frontal view" or similar, comes to mind and there may be others among the 200 images of your scope-link-category that meet this scope criteria. It remains to peer VI judgement if your image is best and most valued. --GRDN711 (talk) 23:31, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Please notify previous voters of this change. Remember: "A support vote that was made before a change of scope is not counted unless it is reconfirmed afterwards; an oppose vote is counted unless it is changed or withdrawn".
  • • Weak  Support with revised scope as there are several others 1, 2 that are close. I give advantage that this image is of excellent quality and that the view is full frontal with the lion’s eyes locked on the photographer (who could be lunch under the right circumstances…). Showing all of the head and mane is a positive feature. As the image was made in the wild rather than a zoo represents an additional challenge. --GRDN711 (talk) 23:24, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment The scope is ok, however the linked CAT should be CAT:Panthera leo (male) (full front) rather than only the head. It is difficult to say that the nom image is the best of the 672 images in the CAT. Creating a specific sub-CAT may help. From a cursory look at the first 50 images, this image appears to be better as it shows the legs also, while in the nom image the lower part of the front is obscured. As of now, my oppose remains. --Tagooty (talk) 03:19, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Capra ibex (Alpine ibex), male walking, and Creux du Van with snow

 Comment I think "at Creux du Van with snow" is not necessary in scope. --Thi (talk) 13:08, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comment. So you would suggest "Capra ibex (Alpine ibex), male walking, and Swiss Alps in background" instead of "Capra ibex (Alpine ibex), male walking, at Creux du Van with snow and Swiss Alps in background" ? The thing is that almost the whole background is the Creux du Van itself and that the Swiss Alps is only the small portion on the top right with the far away mountains. So I think it would be more relevant to remove the Swiss Alps instead of the Creux du Van don't you think ? I just edited it that way, tell me if it works for you. Giles Laurent (talk) 13:16, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The Alpine ibex lives in the Alps of Europe, I don't think that any particular area is important to the scope but the mountain habitat is. The background is mostly unsharp and it is not important for the scope. I think that the scope should be more like a image search query (Capra ibex (Alpine ibex), male walking in the mountains) than a detailed description of the image. --Thi (talk) 15:39, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Here is the thing : the Creux du Van is not part of the Alps of Europe according to this map and as proven by this photograph, the Alpine ibex don't only lives in the Swiss alps. The Creux du Van is actually not that high in altitude, only 1440m in average. The Creux du Van background is immediately recognizable for any person that knows this place and this image illustrates well the male Alpine ibex that can be seen there (there is only one old male there according to my knowledge but many females) as almost all of the background is it. The place is very famous and 200'000 persons visit the Creux du Van every year with probably 80 to 90% in the summer and ibex are often seen there by people because they are a species that is not afraid of humans. So I think the picture illustrates well the male Alpine ibex that lives there for people that would do like a image search query of the ibex that lives there. Also, there is only a few days/weeks every year that you can have snow there as it is not very high in altitude and also because winters are becoming warmer and warmer lately. In the light of these elements, what do you suggest to use as scope, don't you think the new one would fit? Giles Laurent (talk) 15:56, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Support The scope is good since Creux du Van is a well-known natural attraction, the picture illustrates the animal and the nature reservation area. --Thi (talk) 16:31, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reluctantly  Oppose because IMHO @Thi has it right in commenting that "at Creux du Van with snow" is not necessary in the scope. The Capra ibex species is only found in European alpine environments and adding Creux du Van as a geographical location in the scope is extra description that does not add to the uniqueness or value of the image. The subject appears to be an adult male. I am undecided that walking is unique sub-scope behavior. In terms of comparable images of an adult male Capra ibex, this one is of good quality, has better lighting and better fills the frame. --GRDN711 (talk) 00:28, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In 2020, this image was wrongly labelled as being in Kotagiri (Tamil Nadu), it did not have a geotag, and it was promoted to VI based on this incorrect information. The lake is actually in the neighbouring state of Karnataka. The file name and description have been corrected, and geotag added.
