Map of the world by Piri Reis edit

 
Original - Surviving fragment of the first World Map of Ottoman admiral Piri Reis (1513)
Reason
The map shows part of the western coasts of Europe and North Africa with reasonable accuracy, and the coast of Brazil is also easily recognizable. I think this is a feature picture.

Sorry, the true version (2.000 × 2.753) is from commons [1]--Dsmurat (talk) 21:17, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I deleted the local mainpage image, so that problem with the incorrect size should be solved. Royalbroil 04:08, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The commons version is a dreadful, artifacted scan. Spikebrennan (talk) 15:21, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Not interesting, content/detail not brilliant (at FP level). Royalbroil 04:08, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Still too small for the text to be readable. Lack of detail overall. — BRIAN0918 • 2008-02-28 14:27Z
  • Regretful oppose. Obvious encyclopedic value, but technical problems with the scan prevent me from supporting. Please renominate if you get a better version. DurovaCharge! 17:22, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
