Support - It appears a bit blurry to me when zoomed in, but really quite a nice picture and worthy of featured status. Mattximus (talk) 00:54, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, in fact this picture is so good I think we should remove two other pictures on the page "Jam Gadang in 2006" and "Jam Gadang front view" as now redundant. Mattximus (talk) 00:59, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Other images removed. I've uploaded a sharpened version. What do you think? — Chris Woodrich (talk) 07:13, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oh wow, it's fantastic now. Mattximus (talk) 03:16, 18 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Chris, leaning to support but there is some CA at the base of the tower, can anything be done about it? Also the article is unsourced, I found some blogs and travel sites but not sure any of it is a reliable source. Bammesk (talk) 16:08, 18 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Got the CA.

There are multiple sources available, including in Indonesian news media (Kompas, Detik.com, and Liputan6) as well as the English-language travel books. I'm a little swamped with work ATM, but I'll try and source things when I get some spare time. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:01, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support - I added a couple of refs from [1]. Bammesk (talk) 15:59, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Great. Kompas and Republika are both good sources. I will hopefully have time to add more tonight; the two translations I have on my desk are nearing completion. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:25, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
