- Closing with the following conclusions:
So, it's only been a day since the Featured Image Nominations page was created, and already, people are misusing the Reason section, putting their image just because "it's iconic" for instance, also leading to some people thinking that it's all about how good it looks, therefore leaving a lot of submissions being incompetent. And for this, I'm having some serious doubt around the page regarding its submissions. (By the way, I don't mean to mock anyone through their submissions. Even then, I apologize. Thanks for understanding.)
Due to this, I have set up this RfC. I think we may need to further clarify and prioritize the section's use, and possibly change its name to fit in the topic. I have a few names at the moment: "Source:", "Origin:" and "Rarity:".
Either way, I hope something will be done about this regardless. Thank you. Doctorine Dark (talk) 12:51, 7 January 2023 (UTC)

Oppose If it was just rarity, we would only have logos like TAT and such on there. And that would be boring. (• USER TALK! •) 22:51, 7 January 2023 (UTC)

Support I personally think people need to learn how to use the section properly rather than rename it Luke2505 (talk) 00:14, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
