  • Will this even remain in the articles once the building is completed and an updated image is uploaded? And FWIW, the description page needs English descriptions for en:wiki, and ideally this should be geocoded as well. --jjron (talk) 17:06, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yes, it sure would stay. Oakley77 (talk) 18:19, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • Um, where? It would definitely go from List of Olympic venues in ice hockey, and would also go from the infobox in its home article Bolshoy Ice Dome. Given that's a 100 word article, there's not a lot of room for more images, and unless there was a section on construction (which there's not now) it would lack EV. In fact given this dates from April 2011 I suspect it's already rather outdated in terms of what the place now looks like. I realise this is rather second-guessing the whole process, but they do seem valid concerns. --jjron (talk) 02:34, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • OK, a quick Google image search indicates external construction at least is now finished and indeed this is well and truly out of date. Refer to note above about there needing to be a construction section in the article IMO for this to have sufficient EV. --jjron (talk) 02:39, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose While this image has some EV, its composition is cluttered and it doesn't illustrate its subject very clearly. Nick-D (talk) 11:01, 11 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
