Old pocket microscope

Not yet used by any article (a suitable one is yet to be found).

Nominate and neutral, since I am the photographer (and owner) myself - Roger McLassus 14:37, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I moved this to a subpage, as it was placed directly on WP:FPC at first. Also, FPs must be used (and add significantly) to an article, so it's unlikely that this will pass without being used. Perhaps it could be inserted in microscope? Thanks!

Good idea. I have put it there replacing just some empty space. --Roger McLassus 18:12, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly adds to article now it's there. Can you add model, type and brand info on this microscope to the commons description page? - Mgm|^(talk) 09:18, 12 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately all this information is unknown to me. There is nothing written on this microscope, and my grandfather, who once bouht it, is dead. --Roger McLassus 19:17, 12 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

( − ) Oppose Not very sharp and sorry, but I find it a pretty dull subject. --Fir0002 08:26, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Some people might find it interesting, but it's not terribly striking; I doubt many people would want to read the article on the basis of this photo. Camerafiend 02:15, 14 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as above. Enochlau 00:01, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - While the picture illustrates the topic well, it's not that striking. Flcelloguy (A note?) 16:39, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The case is the same colour as the table. Cafe Nervosa | talk 20:11, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Support A beautiful picture. Not "in your face" striking, but that's not the point, is it? I particularly like the way the colours of the case and wooden table complement and tone with each other. --Canthusus 11:51, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Comment try laying a cloth over the table in a solid contrasting color. Durova 19:37, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
