Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Photonic Alphabet
- Reason
- The FAA Phonetic and Morse Chart, showing each of the 26 letters of the English Alphabet and the numbers 0-9, along with their Morse code signal and their phonic pronunciation. Its an interesting find, and illustrates how a letter or number can be translated into Morse code and how each letter is pronounced by radio technicians. This is an svg image, so it should be easy to resize if size is an issue.

- Comment - Very similar to this, which failed. There is even a tabular version of this image in the article (it lacks the dots and dashes, but they're easy enough to add to the table: • • • • | • • | — — | — — — | — — !) ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 03:44, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose per Wadester16, no need for an image here at all Noodle snacks (talk) 13:40, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose. A number of the pronunciations do not appear to be correct. Papa does not rhyme with Oscar. Tang-go? See-air-rah? Rmhermen (talk) 17:57, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, the pronunciations really need to be given in accurate IPA. Respelling really is an incredibly poor method. Thegreenj 00:40, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose This is one of those images on Wikipedia that should be in Images for cleanup in the subcategory of Images that should not be images. The information in this image would do best if it was to be recoded as wikitext. ZooFari 21:36, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

- Oppose It would be better if this was wikicoded and made into a featured sound by turning it into a spoken article. - Mgm|(talk) 12:03, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
