  I've changed your vote template to a regular {{Support}} as the {{SSupport}} template is not listed as a valid template in the FPC voting guidelines and not recognized by FPCbot when preparing vote counts for human confirmation. The optional parameter can be used on the vote templates to alter the vote test from the default, e.g., {{tl|Support|Strong support}}, thus allowing you to write what you want and FPCbot to do its work, which both you and the vote confirmer happy! --Slaunger (talk) 23:04, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

• I think that's a myth actually. For example, the bot got this one correct Commons:Featured_picture_candidates/File:AgamaSinaita01_ST_10.jpg. The recent bot-confusion nomination of a bee on a flower was caused by a nomination where someone blanked an old nomination page for a renomination, and was nothing to do with the strong support vote. --99of9 (talk) 11:28, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

•  Oppose Probable hard work to make this object, and great photographical result. But it is really unappealing to me, and I cannot see the difference between this one and the other one, above. At the end, as a non specialist, I have the impression that we always feature the same cm3.--Jebulon (talk) 22:34, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

  "I have the impression that we always feature the same cm3" ... I think you need a new monitor or/and new eyeglasses!? ;-) --Alchemist-hp (talk) 23:52, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

  @Jebulon + @Tomascastelazo: Please take a look here and here. Now (I hope!) you know why ... It is similar with birds, insects, fungi, ... --Alchemist-hp (talk) 00:28, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

  Nice advent calendar, indeed... No kidding, I understand very well (I have only an idea) how these chemical results and pictures (35 photos in focus staking ? Wow !)are difficult to do, I just want to say that it is not visually appealling to me. The current page has two nominations, (they will surely pass as FP then I feel more free to give a discordant opinion) but i'm not able to distinguish one from the other, sorry for your great friend, not absolutely unknown by me.... Oh, by the way, I'm not an absolute fan of birds, insects, fungi,...--Jebulon (talk) 16:49, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

  @Jebulon: I understand your other reasons, but only not this one: "I have the impression that we always feature the same cm3". Please have a look only to the current both cubes. It is typical for the Lutetium to see a lot of the very small holes. Thulium hasn't it! You see it only in a high magnification and the right light.
