- Support as nominator --Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:52, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
- Comment. Which direction are we facing? An indication in the caption (e.g., south face of Mount Everest) or something like that would be helpful. Spikebrennan (talk) 14:35, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
- South of the mountains, facing north (so south face of Lhotse and Everest, south-east face of Nuptse) [1] Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:21, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
- Also, the image on Commons is annotated. Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:22, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
- Support. -- Spurzem (talk) 11:48, 31 January 2012 (UTC) I prefer Edit 1. -- Spurzem (talk) 12:02, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support. High value picture. Looks like there is a slight CCW tilt to it (from the cloudline/horizon). --Dschwen 15:38, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
- Support One of the tilt corrected ones. Per nom. JJ Harrison (talk) 08:35, 1 February 2012 (UTC
- Comment Can I ask all of you to specify whether you prefer the original original or the fixed version currently uploaded over the top? Commons is complaining again, and the fix may have to be uploaded separately... Papa Lima Whiskey 2 (talk) 13:52, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
- Probably better to upload separately. They both look okay to me. Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:15, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
Weak SupportNeeds an improved caption. Dusty777 (talk) 16:17, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
- In-article or in nomination? If in-nomination, fixed. If in-article, soon to be fixed. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:18, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
SupportIn-nomination. Dusty777 (talk) 23:35, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support, though agree with Dschwen that it may be slightly tilted. --jjron (talk) 10:14, 2 February 2012 (UTC) Support consensus tilt-corrected version. --jjron (talk) 05:44, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
- Comment -- Tilt adjusted version added. Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:51, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support Edit-1 The correction greatly improved the picture. Dschwen made a good call on that. Dusty777 (talk) 17:15, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support Edit-1. Nice edit. —Eustress talk 18:02, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support either edit Can't tell a difference between the edits, but they are both better than the original. Very good picture. Clegs (talk) 10:39, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support any edit EV in List of highest mountains.--Redtigerxyz Talk 16:40, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support any edit. Wonderful picture with high EV. - Darwinek (talk) 12:40, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
- Comment Buried pretty far down in the article. Makes me wonder if the EV is really exceptional. Makeemlighter (talk) 00:12, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
- I put its use in List of highest mountains first for EV, as it shows two of the mountains. Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:38, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, I saw that, but I considered that usage pretty weak. Nobody else minds the EV, though, so forget I said anything. Makeemlighter (talk) 02:22, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support any edit --Guerillero | My Talk 16:28, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support edit 2 --Extra999 (talk) 09:41, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
