Oppose,It has no a historical value, and most of the picture is blurred out — موسى ( talk) 12:05, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- I struck the vote, editor has less than 100 edits, see instructions on top of this page. Regarding the oppose rationale: we don't go by "historical value", we go by Encyclopedic Value (or EV), see FP criteria. We have an article on this, it's notable, it's the lead image, that is EV.

- Comment – After digging around a bit, I found that this drawing or painting apparently originated in
Christian Nubia around 1,000 years ago. It doesn't seem to have much EV for the
National Museum in Warsaw, and isn't featured in that article. –

- "Niche audience" is not a valid critique of any featured content (FA, FL, FP), that's not the measure in
FP criteria, or any featured content criteria.

- Au contraire, mon ami, it relates to EV. Besides which, my comment is a comment, not a vote. Thoughts are free, you know. – Sca ( talk) 16:00, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
- Yes I know, you made a comment, so did I. FP criteria defines EV based on article usage only. We are an encyclopedia, we generate content solely based on notability. We don't generate content based on the interests of an audience (we are not a journal). Encyclopedias exist to satisfy specific inquiries, not interests of an audience.
