Comment This certainly a well executed image, however, I am still struggling with the idea of these simple images having wow. Saffron Blaze (talk) 17:00, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support I don't know, it does wow for me. And I find it well illustrative. Tomer T (talk) 17:52, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I am at risk of being a hypocrite for liking this so much then :) Saffron Blaze (talk) 18:13, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - I like your linked picture too. Nice composition. Colin°^Talk 21:05, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose It doesn't illustrate a brick. It doesn't illustrate a brick wall. It is too abstract and flat. It doesn't show a classic bond (pattern). The articles have an abundance of pictures, none of which stand out as being the one for the lead. This is a rather ugly, garish and unweathered grid of bricks with mortar. The misnamed File:Concrete wall.jpg is a better photo. I'd be tempted to remove this recent insertion from both articles, but I suspect doing so during an FPC might be viewed as disruptive.

Oppose No Encyclopedic value that I can see. Brick has 30+ pictures already, and this one does not add anymore EV then the others, (They are all pretty much a picture of the same thing) I don't know of anyone who hasn't seen a brick wall, so... it's not really that informative of a picture. I just don't see any EV here. Dusty777 21:15, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Well-executed, but meh, and doesn't really show a brick wall, just a pattern of bricks with no sense of scale. Clegs (talk) 10:13, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose low EV. Sanyambahga (talk) 17:09, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose - I would vote keep, apart from the fact the image lacks any adequate description, therefore failing (7) of the assessment criteria. I would like to know more about where the wall was located and some information about the type of brick. Apart from failing (7), it meets every other part of the criteria. It is an excellent illustration for the Brick article, because it shows a wide variety of handmade(?) bricks, of a variety of colours and a non-standard (but illustrative) bond. The lighting allows one to see that the mortar is recessed. Sionk (talk) 11:53, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
