Liquid chlorine sealed in a quartz ampoule and then in an acrylic cube (edge length 5cm).
Reason
Unused, replaced by File:Liquid chlorine.jpg and File:Liquid chlorine in flask.jpg, both of which depict the element better IMO.

  • Comment It is always worth checking out any rationale when an image is removed from an article. In particular, it is commonplace for editors to have some pride over the images that they have taken the time to acquire. Article illustration quality can, and does suffer for it, so keep an eye out. Here is the relevant diff for this image. It is important to note that the replacement image was created by materialscientist. I'm personally neutral in this particular case, the replacement is better at thumb size at least. JJ Harrison ( talk) 01:14, 14 January 2012 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Technically well done, much better than the other two pictures: illustrates the subject just as well, does not contain distracting elements, and is properly exposed. Clegs ( talk) 10:38, 14 January 2012 (UTC) reply
  • I'm not arguing against the technical aspects, but EV. An image not used anywhere has no EV, by FP definition. Both images in the article now, though technically inferior as pictures, have higher EV, and the current image cannot be inserted willy-nilly when the subject is usually a gas (i.e. it's liquid form is not as common).

  • I've asked Alchemist to weigh in here. I'd like to see what he says about the relative value of these three photographs. Chick Bowen 05:29, 16 January 2012 (UTC) reply
  • Keep What we are see at the other two images? What is relevant? My opinion: we must see a yellow liquid: chlorine. The current FP image has the best quality and the best description! It shows us an valued educational sample! This image: File:Liquid chlorine.jpg has the false color for the liq. chlorine: grey-yellow, and low description. This image: File:Liquid chlorine in flask.jpg has a very bad quality. It is very noisy, disturbing background and has a very low description. I have no problems if my image isn't more an FP Image, but the comparison with the other two images isn't a comparison for me. -- Alchemist-hp ( talk) 21:02, 16 January 2012 (UTC) reply
