Original – Oil painting by Iranian painter showing symbols of Nowruz across the history of Persia.
Reason

  • Support as nominatorMhhossein talk 13:07, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose – This being en-WP, use in non-English articles doesn't count. It is used in one article here but the EV is weak, see FP criterion #5. It doesn't contribute to or enhance the article in a definitive way. For example if the article or its subsections did cover Nowruz related art, then it could have EV. On a sidenote: the image was added to the article on March 22, FP criterion #5 suggests waiting at least 7 days. Bammesk (talk) 02:58, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Bammesk, does not appear to have sufficient EV in any English Wikipedia article. (t · c) buidhe 05:11, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • EV: @Bammesk and Buidhe: I would like to turn your kind attention towards the fact that, among other things, the painting contains goldfish, water bowl and Sabze, all being the parts of the Haft-sin custom. The painting is depicting these things in an artistic manner. Actually this painting includes "Fire, Earth, Air, Water, and the three life forms of Humans, Animals and Plants." So I guess it is indeed adding to the understanding of the readers hence has EV. --Mhhossein talk 06:19, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Throughout the human history, the best method for describing (giving information) on cultural events/symbols had near always been via art. I don't get the point why you say this symbolic painting does not have encyclopedic value. --Mhhossein talk 05:44, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Looking at these two [5], [6], in this cave some lights are neutral and some are warm. I lifted the blue channel a bit and it neutralized the lighting, an improvement. I support either way, and prefer neutralizing the lighting (color cast). Regarding modification, the photographer (uploader) hasn't been active since 2017 [7].
