Oppose - If you're nominating an image to represent the artist, please choose one which is the most representative. The greater the number of articles nominated/featured, the less EV each individual image has. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:48, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Where did you find this rule? please show me and link it. Paintings and photos evaluate here individually not for each painter just one work! Alborzagros (talk) 15:55, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Crisco didn't say that each painter can only have one FP. The FP criteria require that a potential FP "[a]dds significant encyclopedic value to an article and helps readers to understand an article". If it's "just another picture" or is not particularly representative of the artist's style (or both) it wouldn't meet this criterion. Josh Milburn (talk) 18:41, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Precisely. Where no article on the painting exists, generally scans of an artist's work do not have EV in and of themselves, but as representations of the artist's style (exceptions are possible, of course, like where a work depicts a historical battle or something, but that doesn't apply here). One painting is sufficient for such a purpose. As J. Milburn says, WP:FP? requires an image to "Add significant encyclopedic value to an article and helps readers to understand an article."; "significant" is negated when there are multiple images showing much the same thing. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:59, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Crisco 1492 _ Please show me rule in [1] and type or highlight where is written. Alborzagros (talk) 06:42, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've already quoted the rule. If you are unable to accept that, that's not my problem. Down below, J. Milburn has already explained my position as well. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:56, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks I didn't mention the text in quotation mark (above) is from WP:FP. I thought that is your words. any way ... This painting Adds significant encyclopedic value to article, Jean-Honoré Fragonard (painter) and helps readers to understand that article. HOW? Blow the painting in the article we can see this words:«Blind Man's Bluff, 1760, Toledo Museum of Art, Toledo, Ohio» then now we can find out that:

One of Fragonard's painting is about Blind Man's Bluff.
The painting is drawn in 1760.
It has been maintained in Toledo Museum of Art in Toledo, Ohio. So reply my question:

Don't three items above add significant encyclopedic value to painter's article?
Don't three items above help readers to understand painter's article?

Oppose per Crisco and per my comment below. Mattximus (talk) 13:16, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Gallery images are usually thought not to have sufficient EV. Samsara 20:45, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
