RuneScape:Featured images/archive-replacement

Zanik
Original image: Image:Zanik detail.png


 * Support - As nominator. I think that the second image is more colorful and more visually appealing. I think RuneScape offers several better images compared to their floating chat heads.  01:13, 9 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Oppose - I prefer the images here to be ingame, capturing the perfect shot can be hard. When it is just given by Jagex, it doesn't follow the criteria The image is taken from RuneScape game client. 02:42, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Visit the RuneScape homepage - its on the top of the page there. Why do we need to put it on our main page too? The old image is fine. 11:35, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Closed - Nomination is unsuccessful.  15:43, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Avatar of Creation(2)
Original image: Image:Battle for the Avatar of Creation.PNG

Description: A calm picture of the Avatar of Creation at Soul Wars. Reason: Re-uploaded a whole new picture as someone said that the old one is too cluttered.


 * Support as nominator: Replaced the image for a more 'calm' look on the Creation Avatar Requiem1160 15:08, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose replacement: with the same angle can be ok. --Dindirindin 16:21, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: It took along time to get the avatar in the camera focus, and in the other picture he's dieing/attacking - this was taken in a Tie World where no one is allowed near the opposing team's avatar
 * Comment: This is why the other image description is battle for the avatar of creation, because is a battle, not a image of the avatar.--Dindirindin 18:25, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - This image is not used in mainspace.  Please ensure this image is used in an article.  09:27, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Added this picture to an article. Requiem1160 11:27, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - This is a great pic and I bet it took some time to capture, but the other pic is also very nice, so I'm neutral. 23:09, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Closed - Nomination is unsuccessful.  15:26, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Paterdomus
Original image: File:Paterdomus Basement.png

Description: The mausoleum of the Paterdomus temple.

Reason: It's bigger, anti-aliased, and has no player in it.


 * Support - As nominator. -- 21:50, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Forgot to say it was replacing File:Paterdomus Basement.png. -- 21:53, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - It looks nicer, I think the lighting is better. 21:57, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - Per psycho, and I like the angle and the beautiful cobble stone isn't over pixelated. On another note, did anyone ever notice the top of the pillars look like crushed skittles or m&ms?--Porp1 23:55, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - No player, and has AA. 00:09, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose - The original was slightly brighter. Improve the brightness to match the current image. 09:00, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * That killed the atmosphere of the image. 11:25, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - Better detail (AA) and lighting.  11:25, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak Support - Better now, although the lighting is a little dark
 * Support - Amazing picture, a really dramatic shot. 19:40, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - Looks better than the old one. 07:44, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - While it may be a bit too dark, it looks more natural then the previous one. 07:46, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - No player in the way, larger, shows the whole room with AA quality. 17:13, October 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * Closed - Neutral Successful. 00:28, October 28, 2009 (UTC)

TzHaar City
Previous image: File:Molten.png

Description: A lava-filled region beneath Karamja Volcano.

Reason: Bigger and has no player.


 * Support - As nominator. -- 21:50, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Forgot to say it was replacing File:Molten.png. -- 21:53, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - The colours look more vivid, and no player makes it better. 21:57, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - I was going to comment (I actually already did, but withdrew my vote) that the floor isn't good, but then I noticed that it is nominated for replacement, not featured; with that, I support. --Porp1 23:58, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - No player in image. 00:09, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - No player = Epic picture
 * Support - As per all . Good move nominating this one.   19:42, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - Per Dies Irae. 07:45, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - Per everybody  21:16, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak Support - I like how the other image shows a higher number of Tzhaar, But this one doesn't have a player so it gets my vote, just. 22:17, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * This one has seven and a half TzHaar, the other one only has five. -- 22:30, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - More vivid colors, no player standing in the way. Per all. 17:13, October 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * Closed - Neutral Successful. 00:29, October 28, 2009 (UTC)

Avatar of Creation(3)
Description: The avatar at peace.

Reason: The previous has health bars, player, and the angle makes it look like it is falling backwards, while this one shows it standing upright.

Previous nomination:


 * Support As nominator -- 02:55, November 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak Support Cool. He's at peace now. . . but in my opinion it would be better with a transparent background, but that's just me--216.175.117.212 06:18, November 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Slight Support It looks much better now, but he looks too cut off, but still pretty good!----Verr 16:59, November 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak Support -It's better than the last one, but as MG said. . . he looks sliced off.
 * Comment - This image must be replaced due to the fact that the old image is orphaned, and a decision was made on http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/RuneScape:Featured_images/archive0#Avatar_of_Creation to replace it. -- 01:02, November 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Porp, no decision was made to replace it. If you see the link provided above, the nomination for replacement was unsuccessful. 02:04, November 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Based on my understanding of the image policy, the currently featured image should be de-listed immediately because it is no longer used in the mainspace... right? 02:07, November 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * This is kind of an unforeseen circumstance, it should simply be readded to an article rather than delisted because of something like this. 02:10, November 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Caleb, here is a quote: "Closed - Image has been nominated for replacement. [Az] 09:22, 27 April 2009 (UTC)"; it says that it is for replacement. Furthermore, the old one is orphaned; here is a list of pages that it links to:
 * RuneScape:Featured images
 * RuneScape:Featured images/archive1
 * RuneScape:Featured images/archive0
 * Forum:New Main Page and pagetitle"
 * It does not state a valid page that is linked to, therefore, it does not qualify to remain a featured image. -- 02:09, November 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I had already checked that out, thank you very much... I'm not sure what you are trying to tell me with the quote, all it says is that the image has been nominated for replacement. I don't think that you are viewing the correct nomination, you should be looking at RuneScape:Featured images/archive0, which was the unsuccessful nomination for replacement. It was previously linked to in an article, so to rectify the situation, we simply need to link to it in an article. 02:14, November 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * After observing the link for a while, I noticed somethng: there was only one vote, other than the nominator, and the rest were comments, so this one has a good chance of replacing that other image (yes I am aware that this is irrelevant, I'm changing the subject) -- 02:20, November 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Delist both - I don't feel I need to say much. Both are not the greatest images in the world. 03:56, November 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * Only one of them is currently a featured image, btw. 04:06, November 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * I wasn't thinking when I wrote that. I meant don't make either a featured article. 04:11, November 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * Lol, featured image, not article. 04:23, November 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - I have a transparent version of File:CREATION AVATAR.png. Should I upload it? -- 22:45, November 25, 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - I honestly like the one with a background more, but ok, I guess -- 22:53, November 25, 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - Lol, when I first saw the transparent avatar, I first though of uncle Sam, saying "I want YOU to play soul wars" -- 00:09, November 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * -- 00:12, November 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * Change to Support - It looks much better to me now. Less grassy, but now I am used to seeing the avatar with a background. o.o
 * Comment - The image has been changed during the nomination. The new image should be re-nominated. This is to avoid any confusions during the nomination process. 04:00, November 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Slight Oppose - I absolutely love the old one. The old one is much more natural, with the people fighting and the Avatar dodging/turning, while the new one simply shows a weird monster staring at a camera ready to take it's picture. The first one would be great for Infobox Monster, but the second one is the one worth featured image. 23:45, November 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Per what Diriz said. It shows the chaotic nature of the minigame. 22:14, November 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Notice of banana - I don't feel as if consensus has been achieved, so I'm letting it run another week. 22:18, November 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Neutral - I'm a little confused with all of the changes, but now I think I like the old one, per Lil diriz, because the new one looks a bit odd, and... the old one is more normal. 00:17, November 29, 2009 (UTC)
 * Closed - Nomination is unsuccessful; lack of consensus.  14:40, December 5, 2009 (UTC)
