Original – Video of a humpback whale singing and diving

Reason: High encyclopedic value as a visual and audio recording of a humpback whale singing and diving
Articles in which this image appears: Humpback whale and added on 7 September 2019 to Whale vocalization. While I would prefer a more stable visual angle, I think that the high EV more than makes up for this shortcoming.

Weak support. I agree that we need to encourage more videos and recordings like this in many respects - this is a triple intersection of underrepresented areas in our FP/FS collection (marine animals, videos of animal behaviour, and recordings of calls), but I hesitate to support fully because of the camera work.

Support – good EV in Whale vocalization article. I am Ok with the video, it spans the entire body from front to tail at close proximity, the audio is great. I think the EV justifies the artistic imperfections. Bammesk (talk) 19:59, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
