  •  Oppose While our considerations should chiefly be about the media, we are also allowed to consider the description page and licensing information in evaluating featured media candidates, by analogy to the featured picture process. My primary issue with this media is the User:PsamatheM/PermissionsV1 template used on the file description page, which has the potential effect of scaring away reusers and/or getting them to contact the author for different (non-free) license terms. As discussed at m:Legal/CC BY-SA licenses and social media, third-party uploads of freely licensed content to social media platforms is not a violation of the Creative Commons licenses, so this template is factually incorrect. I believe that the presence of misleading information on the description page is disqualifying and therefore oppose this media's candidacy.  Mysterymanblue  01:10, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Mysterymanblue: . If the template is wrong I will fix it. I took the template from one used by many other active contributors (via their QI submissions) - initial checks suggest the advice/legal page linked to have changed and stance on social media changed (and my info not been updated to reflect updated advice); but I will investigate and correct if it wrong.

  •  Weak oppose Looks like it'll pass regardless, but while it's a stable video with good light and sharpness, for one of the most ubiquitous and easily recorded animals in its range, I'd expect more for a squirrel video. That "more" could be it exhibiting a particular behavior like a vocalization, preening, cracking open a large nut, etc. -- something specific to edit around -- or otherwise if doing its usual foraging like this, IMO the framing should be either a little tighter to be a close-up or a little wider to avoid cutting off little pieces. Perhaps just a matter of preference, hence "weak" oppose. Also may want to check the wb, which seems a bit on the green side. — Rhododendrites talk15:19, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Rhododendrites Added BGM. The bit-rate/file-size reduction is caused by usage of superior VP9 codec over VP8 and not beacuse of quality degradation. -- Eatcha (talk) 13:56, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Rhododendrites stabilized, there are two versions(the file commit history). The one with the border will probably appear higher quality if viewed on same screen but the border removal was lossless and the apparent(seeming real or true, but not necessarily so.) quality degradation is a result of less viewable(non-black) pixels per area on the output device when compared with the version that has black-borders. I am okay reverting to the version with the borders. -- Eatcha (talk) 05:57, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Description : 

Animation showing the influence of the x in the formula v^x ↦ v + c on the appearance of the Mandelbulb, as the value of x increases linearly, starting at 0.

Thanks for the annotation, the colors are more of a visual emphasis to highlight the change in the variable and thus the transformations of the fractal. With higher variable values, the color cycle also moves :) --PantheraLeo1359531 😺 (talk) 10:16, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment Short answer: no. Longer answer: a) the swimmers knew that I was filming as we were in the same group and nobody opposed before or after uploading; b) from the footage I filmed I chose the file where the individuals are not recognizable; c) if you look at the Category:Estonian Wikipedia summer days 2021 there are several pictures of events with different individuals, it was a semi-public event and the participants could assume that their participation in different events will be photographed/filmed and the fact was announced in the mailinglist of the event--Sillerkiil (talk) 10:34, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak  Oppose. It's a fine piece of music, but it's a bit generic; it doesn't seem artistically interesting or illustratively valuable enough to warrant featured status. But I'm open to convincing if anyone disagrees. --  Mysterymanblue  20:55, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak  Oppose Stellardrone have a significant number of works released under Creative Commons (on bandcamp.com). A few have been uploaded to Commons but seems to me maybe somebody should upload it all to Commons (subject to licensing). My personal taste is that Stellardrone have some far more interesting tracks available under CC and for me this one does not stand out beyond a fair representation of their style. But does one support or oppose based on musical taste? PsamatheM (talk) 17:43, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
