A self portrait of Vincent van Gogh, a quality and fine pic. Seems like he had a passion for self portraits. There are over 35 of them. May be someone with body dysmorphic disorder.

Oops!! Me thought it was with a bit lower quality version. He have so many of them..--The Herald 15:05, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support — Yeah, old Vincent painted a lotta pix of himself, many with that haunted look.

  • I don't think the people at the article care. I think we should get consensus first to keep it in the article lead, then nom, because I suspect, if we don't, FP or no it won't be used outside of galleries soon enough. Adam Cuerden (talk) 12:40, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@The Herald: Today is 15 December. Should I un-suspend the nomination? Armbrust The Homunculus 15:10, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Armbrust: Yep, go ahead. But which day will be the closing date?? 13 days from today or 22nd (10 days, as we had three days of voting from 12-14 Nov earlier) --The Herald : here I am 16:23, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I see, you already unsuspended it. Modified the expiry date, as this was suspended just after 2 days in its first voting period. This will end 8 days, after your WP:FPC edit. Regards, Armbrust The Homunculus 13:44, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
