Info I don't want this image to be featured just because it accidentally could be shot under near perfect conditions. (Original nomination)
Delist -- Granada (talk) 15:31, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
Keep Sorry but not quite sure I get ur reason for delisting it. - Benh (talk) 16:17, 7 January 2018 (UTC)- Keep I realize Granada took this photo and nominated it, but this photo is FP worthy and I feel we should only delist for serious techinical issues, copyright violations, and if a better photo of the same scene comes along.

- Keep I see no reason to delist --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 19:56, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Keep - Serendipity and coincidence are largely responsible for so many great, famous photos. I don't understand your thinking at all. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:42, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
Comment What is happening that causes someone to take and upload a photo, nominate it for featured status and gets it, and a few weeks later nominate it for delisting? Huh? -- KTC (talk) 23:59, 7 January 2018 (UTC)- Keep Per others. And Cart's suggestion to change the crop of this composition due to the distracting feet in the background helped improving it, then I don't think the conditions were perfect at the beginning. Nice adjustment -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:11, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment FYI everyone, Granada has removed the FP tag and categories from this photo herself on 04 Jan, see here. PumpkinSky talk 02:27, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- I don't think a person can do that unilaterally, even if it's their own picture. And how do we know that Granada's account hasn't been somehow hacked or misused for a prank while unprotected? This is very strange behavior. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:08, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment That was me in person, my account is not compromised at all. Not wanting to see this image anymore on pages together with other featured sports pictures is the consequence of the frustration gained by being unable to take good pictures under not perfect conditions. --Granada (talk) 09:26, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment - I'm sorry about your frustration, but don't take it out on a photo that we voted to feature. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:50, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment All good photographers need a lot of luck in their tool bag, it is part of the trade. If all of us nominating photos here removed photos every time we got frustrated over not getting a good shot, there would be very, very few photos in the FP category.
