Camera cleaning[edit]
Can someone tell me if my camera needs to be cleaned based on a picture?--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 01:45, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
- Yes. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 02:05, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
- How much does my camera need to be cleaned based on File:20150902 Quest Multisport clinic Tim Hardaway.JPG.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 12:31, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

- I would follow the instructions at this page to have a look. The example image you gave is much too busy. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 22:27, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
How many at one time?[edit]
How many Featured picture candidates can one nominator have up at one time?
Thank you,
— Cirt (talk) 05:18, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
- We don't have any rules about that. Nominators are expected to be reasonable, though. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 05:59, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
- Oh okay sounds good. So perhaps wait till a prior nomination has gotten further down the list, that sort of thing. :) — Cirt (talk) 08:16, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
- Yeah. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:58, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

- @Cirt: Consider doing a joint nomination if it makes sense to do so, like those currency sets we've been seeing of late. Thinking about this may also help identify additional EV that maybe wasn't obvious at first. HTH, Samsara 02:44, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

Commons request[edit]
This is not an FPC question, but you guys are the picture file experts. A file has been up for deletion at Commons:Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Millennium Park. It has been deleted and undeleted pending moving it to a FU listing on WP. However, the source file has moved or something. Is there a way to search flckr.com for the original source file for File:Crown Fountain Spouting.jpg?--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 22:15, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
The ghost of Wikipedia past?[edit]
Why is this even here? I thought it was discouraged to even upload Creative Commons or public domain photos to Wikipedia these days. Is this to give second chancers a last ditch hope to have their work featured after it fails on commons where there is a more professional and serious photography core?
