Procédure[edit]

Conseils avant de proposer une image[edit]

partie en cours de traduction depuis la version anglaise, votre avis est le bienvenu.

Lisez entièrement le guide avant de commencer

Quelques règles informelles à retenir avant de proposer une image (les termes en italiques sont la traduction anglaise des termes).

  • Définition (display resolution) : les images de Commons peuvent être utilisées sur d'autres supports qu'un écran d'ordinateur, par exemple pour être imprimées ou vues à très haute résolution. Il est important que les images proposées aient la plus haute résolution possible. Au moins 2 millions de pixels (par ex. 2000 x 1000) semble raisonnable à présent. Les images de définition inférieure sont systématiquement rejetées sauf s'il y a une bonne raison.
  • Mise au point (focus) : tous les objets importants de l'image devraient être nets. Dans l'idéal les objets non primordiaux sont nets.
  • Avant-plan et arrière-plan (background and foreground): ils peuvent être dérangeants. Le sujet principal ne devrait pas être caché par le premier plan, ni se confondre avec l'arrière-plan.
  • Qualité générale (general quality) : Les images proposées devraient avoir une très haute qualité technique.
  • Une retouche (digital manipulations) ne doit pas tromper l'observateur. La correction de quelques défauts dans l'image est acceptée pour autant que ce soit limité, bien fait, et non pour tromper. Les retouches courantes sont le recadrage, la correction de la perspective, de netteté, des couleurs ou de l'exposition. Des manipulations plus importantes, tels quel l'élimination d'éléments dans l'arrière plan, doivent être décrites dans la description de l'image, par le biais du modèle {{RetouchedPicture}}. Les retouches non décrites ou mal décrites qui transformeraient le sujet sont inacceptables.
  • Utilité (value) : notre but principal est de présenter des images utiles et précieuses. Les images devraient ainsi être spéciales d'une façon ou d'une autre, donc, entre autres :
    • La plupart des coucher de soleil sont beaux, et la plupart ne sont pas différents des autres existant déjà.
    • Les photos de nuit sont souvent belles mais davantage de détails sont visibles de jour.
    • "Beau" ne veut pas dire "utile".

Au niveau technique, nous avons l'exposition, la composition, le mouvement et la profondeur du champ.

  • L'exposition (exposure) est l'obturation du diaphragme qui modifie la luminosité (brightness) pour rendre avec qualité les ombres et les lumières au sein de l'image. Le manque d'ombres dans le détail n'est pas nécessairement négatif, cela peut être un effet désiré.
  • La composition (composition) est l'arrangement des éléments dans l'image. La "Règle de trois" est un bon guide pour la composition, c'est un héritage des écoles de peintures. L'idée est de diviser l'image par deux lignes horizontales et deux lignes verticales, nous avons donc trois parties dans chaque sens. L'objet ne doit pas forcément être centré. Les sujets intéressants doivent êtres placés aux 4 croisements des lignes. L'horizon ne doit jamais être mis au milieu, car il couperait l'image en deux. L'idée principale ici est de rendre l'image dynamique.
  • Netteté (sharpness) renvoie à la manière dont les mouvements sont représentés dans l'image. Ils peuvent être nets ou flous. Ils ne sont pas mieux l'un que l'autre, cela dépend de l'intention du photographe. L'impression de mouvement dépend des différents objets de l'image. Par exemple, photographier une voiture de course qui apparaît nette par rapport à l'arrière plan ne donne pas une idée de la vitesse. Il faudrait en fait que la voiture soit représentée nette, mais avec un arrière plan flou, créant ainsi le mouvement. D'un autre coté, représenter le saut d'un joueur de basket net avec le reste de l'image flou, en raison de la nature peu habituelle de la photo, lui conférerait de l'intérêt.
  • La profondeur de champ (depth of field or DOF) renvoie à la zone de mise au point devant et au delà du sujet principal. La profondeur de champ est choisie en fonction des besoins spécifiques à chaque image. Une profondeur grande ou petite peut améliorer ou dégrader la qualité de l'image. Une faible profondeur de champ peut attirer l'attention sur le sujet principal, en le séparant de son environnement. Les lentilles à petite distance focale (grand angle) ont une grande profondeur de champ, et vice versa, les lentilles à grande distance focale (petite ouverture) ont une petite profondeur de champ.

Proposition[edit]

Si vous pensez avoir trouvé ou créé une image qui puisse être considérée comme parmi les meilleures de Commons, avec une description et une licence appropriée, copiez le nom de l'image dans la boîte ci-dessous (en incluant le préfixe File:), après le texte déjà présent :


Après cela, vous devrez insérer un lien vers la page que vous venez de créer en haut de Commons:Featured picture candidates/candidate list.

Vote[edit]

A l'exclusion de tous autres, vous pouvez utiliser les modèles suivants:

  • {{Pour}} ( Support),
  • {{Contre}} ( Oppose),

Ainsi que :

  • {{Neutre}} ( Neutral),
  • {{Comment}} ( Comment),
  • {{Info}} ( Info),
  • {{Question}} ( Question).


IMPORTANT: veuillez notamment NE PAS UTILISER les modèles {{weak support}} ( Weak support) ni {{weak oppose}} ( Weak oppose), ils ne sont pas reconnus par le robot, et votre vote serait considéré comme non valide.

Règles[edit]

Règles générales[edit]

  1. Le résultat est donné 9 jours après la proposition (voir le planning en bas de page). Les votes ajoutés le 10e jour ou après ne sont pas décomptés.
  2. Les utilisateurs non-enregistrés peuvent proposer des images, faire des commentaires, mais pas voter.
  3. La proposition elle-même ne compte pas comme un vote : il faut l'ajouter explicitement.
  4. Le proposant peut retirer une image à tout moment, en écrivant : {{Withdraw}} ~~~~
  5. Souvenez-vous que le but de Wikimedia Commons est une bibliothèque pour tous les projets Wikimedia, y compris des projets futurs ; les images n'ont pas à être utiles uniquement pour Wikipédia.
  6. Les images peuvent être retirées de la liste dès le 5e jour si elles n'ont reçu aucun vote "pour".
  7. Soyez attentifs et très sélectifs dans les choix que vous faites, car il ne peut y avoir que deux propositions actives par proposant. Toute proposition supplémentaire sera rejetée sans examen.
  8. Seulement 2 nominations actives par même utilisateur (qui est, en nomination sous "review" et non encore close) sont autorisées. Le principal but de cette mesure est de contribuer à une meilleure qualité moyenne des nominations, par un choix plus judicieux des photos présentes en nominations.

Règles de promotion[edit]

L'image candidate devient une image remarquable si elle remplit les conditions suivantes :

  1. Une licence appropriée (bien sûr !)
  2. Au moins sept votes "pour".
  3. un ratio de 2/1 de votes "pour"/"contre".
  4. Deux versions différentes de la même image ne peuvent pas être promues en même temps, mais seulement celle avec le plus grand score.

Contestations[edit]

Avec le temps, les critères d'évaluation évoluent, et il peut être décidé qu'une image qui était auparavant assez bonne pour être dans la liste ne peut plus l'être.

Pour qu'une image soit déchue, il faut qu'une majorité de 2/3 avec au moins 5 votes accepte de retirer l'image, autrement elle reste "remarquable". Pour voter, utiliser les modèles {{Keep}} ( Keep : mérite de rester "remarquable") ou {{Delist}} ( Delist  : ne mérite plus le label).

Pour contester une image, copiez son nom avec le préfixe dans la boîte ci-dessous à la suite du texte déjà présent :


Vous devriez inclure les informations suivantes :

  • Informations sur l'origine de l'image (créateur, importateur).
  • Un lien vers le vote d'origine.
  • La raison pour laquelle vous contestez le label, avec votre signature.

Insérez ensuite un lien en haut de Commons:Featured picture candidates/removal.

The word "crop" can also mean "framing" in photography terms. No actual cutting of the image needs to have been made. It simply refers to the way the photographer has selected the scene. Since you are new here (like you wrote on another nom), there might be photo terms that are unfamiliar to you. You find most of them at COM:PT. --Cart (talk) 19:16, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Commons is just an archive for photos; very few photos are "used" here. The photos kept here are used in Wikipedias all over the world, as well as all the Wiki sister projects, schools, museums, organisations, and thousands of others that get their photos from Commons. Commons is like a "stock photo site" where images can be used for free if you credit the photographer. --Cart (talk) 19:25, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Clear distorsions of the face in the corner, due to the wide angle (24 mm) lens. Crop is too tight at the top. The guy seems to lower his head to fit it into the frame :-) The arm and hand in the foreground suffer from motion blur. Probably the shutter speed was not fast enough. The background is not very sharp, and the light is dull around the man with red jumper.

Purple martin in flight
  • Gallery: Commons:Featured_pictures/Animals/Birds/Passeriformes#Family_:_Hirundinidae_(Swallows)
  •  Info Purple martin in flight, slowing down as it approaches its nest. Spent a long time try to get a sharp photo of these very fast birds -- I was happy with this one.
    Note: I tried something with the sky that I haven't attempted before, pulling a cloud from another shot taken at the same place at the same time from roughly the same direction. I don't know if that's too much retouching for FPC, but erring on the side of disclosure (it didn't affect the bird itself -- just improved the background a little). all by — Rhododendrites talk |  23:36, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    • Why can't we? Restricting FP to the rules of photojournalism and photo contests would leave out a bunch of interesting candidates. Julesvernex2 (talk) 21:40, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • You have never manipulated a background (or a foreground)? All of the out-of-focus twigs, distracting leaves, bird/bug-specks in the background, etc. that you've photographed -- you've never removed them? Pay no mind to extraordinary feats of AI-enabled sharpening, AI-based denoising, selective tone adjustments, and all other manner of post-processing, but add a cloud (a cloud in the sky at that place and at that time, even) and all of a sudden I've crossed a bright line? I'm not saying it shouldn't matter -- I know it'll go against some people's sensibilities, which is why I highlighted it in the nomination statement, and anyone is free to oppose if they wish -- but this Arbiter of What's Acceptable stuff is too much. — Rhododendrites talk |  21:51, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Technically, any panorama which includes sky and clouds will have several spots in the sky where parts are from other neighboring photos, so in fact replaced and often tweaked/reshaped by the processing program to look nice. I can guarantee that the sky never looked exactly like in this image, because it is a product of the program that stitched the panorama. We accept that without question because they are declared as panoramas and we know they are "manipulated". As long as the alteration is openly declared in a very clear manner (which has been made here), I see no problem with entering such photos here at FPC. It's just a matter of classification, and in each case votes can decide how much they are willing to tolerate in an FPC. Ideally it would be great if the original was found in the file's upload history so that we can see each step, I think that would help people decide how they are going to vote. In this case, I suspect there is no great difference. --Cart (talk) 22:17, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      • For good measure, I've uploaded the version before the sky adjustment and reverted. Note that the uploaded file is also before another pass at tone adjustments/white balancing so it looks slightly different in other [more mundane] ways. — Rhododendrites talk |  22:40, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
        It is indeed a small but surprisingly effective change! A small nitpick: those beautiful steel blue feathers above the eyes got quite a bit duller after the tonal adjustments. Julesvernex2 (talk) 12:18, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support -- WildMouse76 (talk) 22:33, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose I agree with Charles that heavy-handed manipulations (like sky replacements) applied to images which will be used in a context where the audience can expect a realistic depiction of the subject shouldn't be featured here. As image manipulations seem to come up more often these days, there might be a need for a more in-depth discussion about what's ok and what's not. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 04:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • A discussion has been opened on the FPC talk page. --Cart (talk) 12:07, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • The "heavy-handed manipulation" didn't change the subject at all, so if the point is to ensure a photo of a martin looks like a martin that's irrelevant here. If it's to ensure a martin could be seen in front of a realistic background, the fact that it's the same sky from the same place/time would seem pretty realistic. So what's left is an arbitrary line whereby using AI to manipulate an image's noise/sharpness, stitching images, using content-aware fill, outright removing pieces like disturbing plants and smears, etc. is acceptable and this is not. I would feel less strongly about this if people just said "it offends my photographer's sensibilities in ways that a wide range of other manipulations and 'unrealities' do not" rather than act as though this is unrealistic but the rest of what we see at FPC is completely realistic. — Rhododendrites talk |  13:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
Hi TOUMOU, I see that Rhododendrites has helped you with the categories and fixing the description, thanks for that. Documentation of the photo is just as important for FPC as a good image, so take a look at the changes that have been made on the file page. Good information on the file page will always improve your chances of getting a photo promoted to FP, since info makes it more valuable to the Wiki project. Therefore, would you please add the location to the photo too. If you don't know it, please ask the photographer Skander zarrad. I have fixed the gallery link for you. You need to specify both the right page and the section. When you nominate an image here, you become sort of a "temporary caretaker" of that photo, and it's up to you to make sure everything is fixed and correct. Best, --Cart (talk) 10:57, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done I added the location of the photo, it was taken as part of a photo walk organised during the WLE this year Thank you for your help and suggestion TOUMOU (talk) 11:55, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
thank you
i will do this for all my photos Skander zarrad (talk) 15:18, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That is good to hear. :-) You could start with your photo of the flamingos since it is now nominated here. And welcome to FPC! --Cart (talk) 16:28, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am sure he will be right. I was in that part of Tunisia in March with Mohamed-Ali Dhakhli, one of Tunisia's top bird guides and we observed quite a few hybrids; they didn't all look the same; but El Golli Mohamed will know his own birds. Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:01, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tanner at work, Medina of Marrakesh
Nice photo! Are you sure he is a tanner or has there been a simple mix-up in the translation? A tanner is someone who process the raw hides into leather, a very hazardous and revolting job. After that the leather goes to a currier who dyes and prepare the leather before it can be made into different things by a leather worker. Traditionally, such craftsmen are called "saddlers" even if they make other things from leather than saddles. Perhaps he performs all three professions and we only see one of them (leather working) here in the photo. Love the cat! :-) --Cart (talk) 17:46, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments about profession depicted
  •  Comment Hi IssamBarhoumi, what a great photo! However, what he is doing is a bit mislabeled. What he is doing is not engraving, but it is very common for people outside the handicraft trade to know the difference. ;-) Engraving is when you cut away material to make patterns (no hammer involved for engraving metals). What he is doing is called chasing, part of the repoussé and chasing techniques used by copper, silver and goldsmiths. Chasing is when you hammer in a pattern into the material, and repoussé is when you hammer out patterns from the backside of the material. I have fixed up the description and the categories for you, but would you mind if the file was renamed too so that is showed the right profession. I'm so happy that we finally have a really good photo for the wiki articles and chasers on Wikidata. Coppersmiths often use many different techniques to make the patterns on their work, and the right terminology for all of them is not easy. Best, --Cart (talk) 15:25, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This fragment of the decoration of the palace of the Persian king Darius the Great, is an element taken from the frieze of archers found in the Achaemenid palace of Susa. The work of wall art is made up of glazed bricks with reliefs, of which unfortunately the shine of the enamels used has now decomposed under the effect of time and humidity, which explains why it cannot be very specific regarding the standards of the images presented, best regards.--Pierre André (talk) 16:22, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I checked the case using Google and Wikipedia. The place is some 180 km from Juba, the capital town, it is definitely not a city like London or Tokyo, but it is a town of 490 000+ population, it has airport, banks, schools and university, telecommunication company, TV and shops of electronics, churches of several confessions, etc. There is a school and a clinic in Kimotong. So, I do not think that they are so innocent to not understand the consequences of photography. And I agree that the photo has documentary value and encyclopedic value. LexKurochkin (talk) 07:00, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Excuse me, but do you believe to know better than me where I was? it was not in the city of Kimotong, but a remote village in the province. And that's precisely why we went there. It was not a photo tour behind a mall in Juba. There is no shops, no current, no telecom, no transport or something like that in the area. The closest water well could be 1 hour away by foot. Telling this wiöl surely make no difference and people will believe whatever they want, but whatsoever. Poco a poco (talk) 07:24, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

180 km without any transport means (or public transport options) and with no asphalt roads (a 4x4 is required) is not what you may think of (definitely not a 1 and a half hours smooth drive). In fact, wit a 4x4 we couldn't drive often faster than 30 km/h Poco a poco (talk) 07:26, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Coming back to what matters, Poco a poco, having lived in Africa for more than 17 years, I am the best person to understand the mindset of black Africans. My biggest problem is that you're photographing a naked black woman, probably the most discriminated group in the world. White people will never understand black people, and that's okay. Looking at this picture makes me feel ashamed to be black. I should just stop talking now. Wolverine XI 11:18, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And I believe in the motto of Wikipedia, where every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That's what Wikipedia is about. I don't understand why an affected party of an issue should be the best person to talk about it. Most people in those remoted villages of South Sudan walked around naked, that's how things are there, and they love scarification too and show it proudly. We were all the time with a lot of local guides who know the area, the people and the customs. --Poco a poco (talk) 15:17, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Note: I tried something with the sky that I haven't attempted before, pulling a cloud from another shot taken at the same place at the same time from roughly the same direction. I don't know if that's too much retouching for FPC, but erring on the side of disclosure (it didn't affect the bird itself -- just improved the background a little). all by — Rhododendrites talk |  23:36, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

All of the out-of-focus twigs, distracting leaves, bird/bug-specks in the background, etc. that you've photographed -- you've never removed them? Pay no mind to extraordinary feats of AI-enabled sharpening, AI-based denoising, selective tone adjustments, and all other manner of post-processing, but add a cloud (a cloud in the sky at that place and at that time, even) and all of a sudden I've crossed a bright line? I'm not saying it shouldn't matter -- I know it'll go against some people's sensibilities, which is why I highlighted it in the nomination statement, and anyone is free to oppose if they wish -- but this Arbiter of What's Acceptable stuff is too much. — Rhododendrites talk |  21:51, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Technically, any panorama which includes sky and clouds will have several spots in the sky where parts are from other neighboring photos, so in fact replaced and often tweaked/reshaped by the processing program to look nice. I can guarantee that the sky never looked exactly like in this image, because it is a product of the program that stitched the panorama. We accept that without question because they are declared as panoramas and we know they are "manipulated". As long as the alteration is openly declared in a very clear manner (which has been made here), I see no problem with entering such photos here at FPC. It's just a matter of classification, and in each case votes can decide how much they are willing to tolerate in an FPC. Ideally it would be great if the original was found in the file's upload history so that we can see each step, I think that would help people decide how they are going to vote. In this case, I suspect there is no great difference. --Cart (talk) 22:17, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      • For good measure, I've uploaded the version before the sky adjustment and reverted.

  •  Oppose I agree with Charles that heavy-handed manipulations (like sky replacements) applied to images which will be used in a context where the audience can expect a realistic depiction of the subject shouldn't be featured here. As image manipulations seem to come up more often these days, there might be a need for a more in-depth discussion about what's ok and what's not. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 04:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • A discussion has been opened on the FPC talk page. --Cart (talk) 12:07, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • The "heavy-handed manipulation" didn't change the subject at all, so if the point is to ensure a photo of a martin looks like a martin that's irrelevant here. If it's to ensure a martin could be seen in front of a realistic background, the fact that it's the same sky from the same place/time would seem pretty realistic. So what's left is an arbitrary line whereby using AI to manipulate an image's noise/sharpness, stitching images, using content-aware fill, outright removing pieces like disturbing plants and smears, etc. is acceptable and this is not. I would feel less strongly about this if people just said "it offends my photographer's sensibilities in ways that a wide range of other manipulations and 'unrealities' do not" rather than act as though this is unrealistic but the rest of what we see at FPC is completely realistic. — Rhododendrites talk |  13:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
Hi TOUMOU, I see that Rhododendrites has helped you with the categories and fixing the description, thanks for that. Documentation of the photo is just as important for FPC as a good image, so take a look at the changes that have been made on the file page. Good information on the file page will always improve your chances of getting a photo promoted to FP, since info makes it more valuable to the Wiki project. Therefore, would you please add the location to the photo too. If you don't know it, please ask the photographer Skander zarrad. I have fixed the gallery link for you. You need to specify both the right page and the section. When you nominate an image here, you become sort of a "temporary caretaker" of that photo, and it's up to you to make sure everything is fixed and correct. Best, --Cart (talk) 10:57, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tanner at work, Medina of Marrakesh
Nice photo! Are you sure he is a tanner or has there been a simple mix-up in the translation? A tanner is someone who process the raw hides into leather, a very hazardous and revolting job. After that the leather goes to a currier who dyes and prepare the leather before it can be made into different things by a leather worker. Traditionally, such craftsmen are called "saddlers" even if they make other things from leather than saddles. Perhaps he performs all three professions and we only see one of them (leather working) here in the photo. Love the cat! :-) --Cart (talk) 17:46, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments about profession depicted
  •  Comment Hi IssamBarhoumi, what a great photo! However, what he is doing is a bit mislabeled. What he is doing is not engraving, but it is very common for people outside the handicraft trade to know the difference. ;-) Engraving is when you cut away material to make patterns (no hammer involved for engraving metals). What he is doing is called chasing, part of the repoussé and chasing techniques used by copper, silver and goldsmiths. Chasing is when you hammer in a pattern into the material, and repoussé is when you hammer out patterns from the backside of the material. I have fixed up the description and the categories for you, but would you mind if the file was renamed too so that is showed the right profession. I'm so happy that we finally have a really good photo for the wiki articles and chasers on Wikidata. Coppersmiths often use many different techniques to make the patterns on their work, and the right terminology for all of them is not easy. Best, --Cart (talk) 15:25, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Hi -- Cart I will rename the file and inform you when done --IssamBarhoumi (talk) 15:55, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Are you certain that the white balance is right here? It seems a bit yellow. Yann (talk) 10:27, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This fragment of the decoration of the palace of the Persian king Darius the Great, is an element taken from the frieze of archers found in the Achaemenid palace of Susa. The work of wall art is made up of glazed bricks with reliefs, of which unfortunately the shine of the enamels used has now decomposed under the effect of time and humidity, which explains why it cannot be very specific regarding the standards of the images presented, best regards.--Pierre André (talk) 16:22, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Young Laarim woman with extensive scarification, Kimotong, South Sudan.NSFWTAG
I checked the case using Google and Wikipedia. The place is some 180 km from Juba, the capital town, it is definitely not a city like London or Tokyo, but it is a town of 490 000+ population, it has airport, banks, schools and university, telecommunication company, TV and shops of electronics, churches of several confessions, etc. There is a school and a clinic in Kimotong. So, I do not think that they are so innocent to not understand the consequences of photography. And I agree that the photo has documentary value and encyclopedic value. LexKurochkin (talk) 07:00, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Excuse me, but do you believe to know better than me where I was? it was not in the city of Kimotong, but a remote village in the province. And that's precisely why we went there. It was not a photo tour behind a mall in Juba. There is no shops, no current, no telecom, no transport or something like that in the area. The closest water well could be 1 hour away by foot. Telling this wiöl surely make no difference and people will believe whatever they want, but whatsoever. Poco a poco (talk) 07:24, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I did not pretend to know the place better than you, as I said clearly, I just used Google and Wkipedia. I tryed to understand. And, actually, you told us your vision of the place only in this particular post. LexKurochkin (talk) 08:54, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can you ask the same to those people?--Shagil Kannur (talk) 06:22, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think, yes, considering my other comment. Actually, there are not too many places of that grade of innocence nowadays. May be somewhere deep in jungle, but not only 180 km from their capital. LexKurochkin (talk) 07:03, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
180 km without any transport means (or public transport options) and with no asphalt roads (a 4x4 is required) is not what you may think of (definitely not a 1 and a half hours smooth drive). In fact, wit a 4x4 we couldn't drive often faster than 30 km/h Poco a poco (talk) 07:26, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There are of course different degrees of innocense, but i seriously doubt that she is aware of how people with a scarification fetish will use this photo. --Cart (talk) 14:03, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To oppose on the grounds that the person depicted is 'innocent' is patronising. Seems a high quality, respectful, documentary image to me. Part of a very valuable and impressive set of images from Poco. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:20, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And Real Madrid fan? you're good ;) At least we have that in common Poco a poco (talk) 03:58, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm still new to the game, having only started to support Real Madrid in October or November of 2021. Coming back to what matters, Poco a poco, having lived in Africa for more than 17 years, I am the best person to understand the mindset of black Africans. My biggest problem is that you're photographing a naked black woman, probably the most discriminated group in the world. White people will never understand black people, and that's okay. Looking at this picture makes me feel ashamed to be black. I should just stop talking now. Wolverine XI 11:18, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And I believe in the motto of Wikipedia, where every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That's what Wikipedia is about. I don't understand why an affected party of an issue should be the best person to talk about it. Most people in those remoted villages of South Sudan walked around naked, that's how things are there, and they love scarification too and show it proudly. We were all the time with a lot of local guides who know the area, the people and the customs. --Poco a poco (talk) 15:17, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
