- Oppose - Nice image, but unfortunately, this image does meet the minimum size of 1500px in each dimension ( featured picture criteria). Especially considering we have obtained many satellite images of very high resolution, I don't think we can make an exception here. Thank you for submitting :) Jujutacular ( talk) 14:07, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
- Although it's slightly below the recommended size of 1500×1500, this image is unique to most satellite images. You can see the national airport and roads, which you can't in any current featured satellite images. Nauru, being a small country in the middle of nowhere, also has barely any satellite images taken of it.

- I don't know, it's pretty clear in Google Maps... Can zoom in much closer, and see more detail... gazhiley 14:47, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

- Oppose definitely not up to snuff with modern publicly available satellite images. Plus the source say's it's aerial and not satellite, so it's even worse. — raeky t 16:22, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
