Nominated by	Skimel (talk) on 2018-09-17 11:43 (UTC)
Scope	Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Megapodius pritchardii eggs in Niuafo'ou
Used in	Global usage English Wikipedia, French Wikipedia, Catalan Wikipedia, Megapodiidae
Reason	There are other images of the megapodius pritchardii eggs but this is the only one that is an actual photograph -- Skimel (talk)
Review (criteria)	Comment image may be cropped to include only the eggs, if needed. Skimel (talk) 11:43, 17 September 2018 (UTC)  Comment Not an appropriate scope. Charles (talk) 20:16, 18 September 2018 (UTC)  Question Could you please explain why the scope is not appropriate? Thanks!Skimel (talk) 20:19, 18 September 2018 (UTC) Because the location of the eggs is not relevant to their distinctiveness. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:22, 18 September 2018 (UTC)  Support The location of butterflies or birds in scopes is of no interest, but in this case it is an exception. The population is a little better in Tonga but by the time the photograph was taken the population was reduced to this single island. It is a historical image. Since it is forbidden to harvest the eggs and to approach the nests. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 05:10, 19 September 2018 (UTC)  Oppose The image shows a lot more than just the eggs. As such, I find it an unsuitable illustration of said eggs.--Peulle (talk) 13:04, 20 September 2018 (UTC)  Comment As we already have this illustration of megapodius pritchardii eggs, maybe the scope "Megapodius pritchardii eggs catcher in Niuafo'ou" would be better?Skimel (talk) 14:59, 20 September 2018 (UTC)  Oppose as per Peulle above. --Yann (talk) 14:37, 23 September 2018 (UTC) Result: 1 support, 2 oppose => declined.
