  • Support great picture, waow effect! --Luc Viatour (talk) 19:37, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - This is a gorgeous picture with no adequate article to house it. The best one (Proboscis) is only a stub where the subject of the picture (this specisl type of proboscis) is not referred to. Will support if (and when) a proper article can be found or made. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:10, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - I believe it illustrates proboscis well enough to be featured. I would love to see it on more articles, though. ErikTheBikeMan (talk) 02:46, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
