•  Info For what it's worth, it's not a cropping issue but a framing issue, so there's little to be done about that, unless you want to photoshop in a new background. I think the photo is unique enough to warrant featured status nonetheless, considering we're not actually missing out on anything except more shoji doors. (how many full-body photos are there on the commons of actual geisha?? this one isn't a street snapshot either but she agreed to the modelling) Japanexperterna.se (talk) 04:45, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

  Are we to understand the photographer only took one image or that all the images have a similar tight framing? Saffron Blaze (talk) 05:06, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

  There are several more images, but I only had a 50mm lens and wasn't physically able to get further back. I have a horizontal one of her upper body (the obi and up) which is more spacious left and right and it is also rather aesthetically pleasing but is it more valuable for encyclopedic use?

• Fair enough, but COM:FPC is about featuring excellent images not simply celebrating EV. EV is just one of several things that is considered. en:FP would be the place to have an image featured primarily for its EV. Saffron Blaze (talk) 15:25, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

OTRS confirmed

Question It seems an COM:OTRS is required. The user is new; trying to represent http://www.japanexperterna.se/. Jee 12:29, 7 June 2014 (UTC) *I have just put a {{Delete}} tag on this image. The source page has an explicit (c) and there is no evidence that the uploader has the authority to override that. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:27, 7 June 2014 (UTC) The page you were looking at is not the "source page", it's a different take on the same raw. That picture is much smaller, has a different color balance and also unfortunately some color clipping.Japanexperterna.se (talk) 15:16, 7 June 2014 (UTC)  Question Should voting be put on hold? Or is it OK to renominate it after the whole OTRS/deletion thing has been cleared? It's obviously confusing and seems to have put an end to all votes, both supporting and opposing. Marcus/JPNEX (talk) 12:21, 9 June 2014 (UTC) ::I think a "hold" is a good idea. I think it is likely that this image is OK, but we've had enough impersonators that I am by no means certain of that. I don't know how long the OTRS backlog is now, but a hold -- or closing this with the understanding that it can be reopened, would be good because it might be several weeks before it is cleared. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:42, 9 June 2014 (UTC) Unfortunately we've no "hold" option as FPC is bot handled. The author can re nominate it after OTRS confirmed. Jee 14:08, 9 June 2014 (UTC) After appropriate confirmation from the source, I have closed the DR as a keep. The FP vote should continue. .     Jim . . . .
