~~Support~~Vote updated to Replace below Again, excellent. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs} 06:04, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
~~Support~~- So cute - DreamSparrow ^Chat 09:25, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
This image is similar but superior to an existing FP, so replace File:Yellow-faced Honeyeater nov07.jpg with this image. Support if that is not possible. MER-C 12:56, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Unsure. Different poses do have different information. It is one of those GDFL ones, though. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs} 17:57, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  - The nominated image displaced the existing FP in the article. MER-C 18:40, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    - Oh. Then Replace. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs} 19:25, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Replace old Featured Picture. Only 1 image should be featured for this bird. Both are lovely photographs though. Mattximus (talk) 01:11, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@MyDreamSparrow and JJ Harrison: Are the two of you alright with "Replace?" As things stand, I'm not 100% sure we have a clear quorum yet. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs} 14:01, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Mydreamsparrow and JJ Harrison: Trying this ping again... Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs} 14:03, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Fine with me. Sorry I'm not well trained to look at Wikipedia's new-fangled notifications yet! JJ Harrison (talk) 18:55, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not Promoted --Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 04:08, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Armbrust, looking at the above I see 5 users who favor "replace", 4 users in bold letters and 1 user (the nominator) in their answer "Fine with me" to Adam's question: "Are the two of you alright with Replace?". So I see consensus to replace. I don't understand the no promote? Bammesk (talk) 01:54, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- See "How to comment for Candidate Images" in the lead of WP:FPC. "Replace" isn't an option. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 02:44, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - Ok. "Replace" implied "delist" (replacement can only happen after a delist), so the intent of the participants was "delist and replace", but the participants didn't express their intent in the proper format. I suggest moving the nom to the section: "Older nominations requiring additional input from users" and then pinging the participants asking them to express their intent in the proper format. Not promoting, at this point, effectively ignores the intent of the participants. Bammesk (talk) 03:23, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - But replace requires the nominated picture should be featured, no? I may renominate these as D&R when participation next picks up. MER-C 07:22, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    - Bammesk The problem is that in a "candidate nomination" delist & replace isn't a valid option either. You either support or oppose the image being promoted (including their weak variants).
      MER-C The D&R process isn't, IMO, really there to replace images with a completely different one. This was discussed in December 2013, but nothing came of it. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 16:08, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      - I think it's reasonably clear that the voting participants were of the view that the image should be promoted. I think whether the other image should be delisted ought to be separate issue and a corresponding delist nomination. Similar story with the oystercatcher image. JJ Harrison (talk) 09:26, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        I've gone ahead and renominated both images. If the result is promote, then I'll replace the other usages and nominate the older images for delisting. MER-C 03:31, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
