Picture peer review is a staging area for potential Featured Picture Candidates (FPCs) and a place where you can have images evaluated as a Valued Picture Candidate (VPC).

You may elect to have your nomination undergo Peer Review as a "spot check" before making a formal FPC nomination, have it evaluated for Valued Picture status, or receive both Peer Review and Valued Picture evaluation.

You may elect to have your nomination reviewed as a potential Wikipedia:Featured Picture, or simply seek opinions on it. You can do this as well as, or instead of, having it evaluated for VP status.

Note: "peer review" usually implies a group of authoritative reviewers who are equally familiar with and expert in the subject. The process represented by this page is not a formal academic peer review in that sense. Images that undergo this process cannot be assumed to have greater authority at FPC than any other.

Valued Pictures are images that add significant value to Wikipedia articles, either by illustrating article content particularly well, or by being a hard to obtain free use image of the content being illustrated. They may possess many of the characteristics of a Featured Picture, but have a greater emphasis on high encyclopaedic value over technical quality. For the criteria against which VPs are judged refer to the Valued Picture Criteria.

For promotion, if an image is listed here for at least seven days with three or more opinions in support (excluding the nominator) it can be added to the Wikipedia:Valued pictures gallery. Note that promotion is ultimately at the discretion of the closer. For example anonymous votes are generally disregarded, as are opinions of sockpuppets.

Please ensure you have read and understood the VP Criteria and/or FP criteria prior to nominating. For general advice on editing pictures see Wikipedia:How to improve image quality.

To create a Picture Peer Review and/or Valued Picture Candidate nomination, follow these three steps:

Step 1: Create a new subpage named   Wikipedia:Picture peer review/ExampleName replacing ExampleName with an appropriate title:

type=create

width=70

break=no

buttonlabel=Create new subpage

default=User:Jjron/VP Trial/

preload=User:Jjron/VP Trial/PPR-VP Preload

editintro=User:Jjron/VP Trial/PPR-VP Editintro

Step 2: Fill in the requested data, including your reasons for nominating, and click Save page.

Step 3: Transclude the newly created subpage to the TOP of the Picture peer review list ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Picture_peer_review&action=edit§ion=2 direct link]).

{{-}}

;If the image is nominated for Picture Peer Review only:

• Place comments addressing FPC criteria or suggesting improvements and opinions in the Peer Review Comments section of the nomination only.
• Do not place anything in the Valued Picture Candidate Opinions section on images nominated for PPR only.

;If the image is nominated for Valued Picture Candidate only:

• If you approve of a picture, write Support followed by your reasons in the Valued Picture Candidate Opinions section.
• Unlike processes such as FPC, there are no Oppose votes at VPC; any Oppose votes will be removed. You may however be able to provide a comment in the Peer Review Comments section if you disapprove, or wish to suggest improvements.
• There are no delist nominations at VPC. However, at times a nominator may suggest an image that they feel should replace a current VP in order to avoid duplication, e.g., a similar image of higher quality or better composition. In that case they will make a nomination, but be clear that they are proposing a replacement for an existing VP. In this case opinions should start with Replace rather than Support, followed by the reasons.

:* Note: to change your opinion, strike it out (with ...) rather than removing it.

;If the image is nominated for both PPR and VPC:

• Provide PPR comments in the Peer Review Comments section as described above.
• Provide VPC votes in Valued Picture Candidate Opinions section as described above.

The PPR archive contains all opinions and comments collected on this page, and also nomination results.

Please remember to be civil, not to bite the newbies and to comment on the image, not the person.

The criteria for Valued Picture Candidates are based on those for Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates; for the specific criteria against which FPCs are judged, see Wikipedia:Featured picture criteria.

The key difference is that Valued Pictures place primary emphasis on the picture's encyclopaedic value to Wikipedia. Thus standards for this are higher at VP (e.g., the image must have been in its article for at least one month, and it must be a significant addition to its article). By contrast Featured Pictures place higher emphasis on 'technical quality'.

Note: an image cannot be both a VP and an FP. Therefore you cannot nominate an existing FP at VPC. You may nominate existing VPs at FPC, but if a VP is promoted to FP, it will have its VP tag replaced with the FP tag, and will be removed from the VP Gallery.

The criteria for VPCs are:

1. The image is encyclopaedically valuable to Wikipedia and has been suitably illustrating an article for at least one month. Images that only make a minor contribution, such as a gallery image, would not be considered to have high encyclopaedic value.
2. The image is accurate and has an appropriate caption in its article.
3. The image is of a suitable size for its purpose. In general this means it should have acceptable resolution at image page size.
4. The image is of acceptable technical quality, without excessive digital manipulation. Technical quality covers such things as composition, lighting, colour balance, and sharpness. In general the image should have acceptable quality at image page size.
5. The image has a free license.

Note: to view an image at image page size, click on the thumbnail version displayed in the nomination on this page.

8. Update the picture's tag by adding {{ValuedPicture|image_name}} (replace image_name with the nomination page name, i.e., the image_name from Wikipedia:Picture_peer_review/image_name).
9. If an edited or alternative version of the originally nominated image is promoted, make sure that all articles contain the Valued Picture version.
10. Notify the nominator by placing {{subst:PromotedNominationVPC|Image:Image.ext}} on the nominator's talkpage. For example: {{subst:PromotedNominationVPC|Image:Blue morpho butterfly.jpg}}
11. If the image was created by a Wikipedian, place {{subst:PromotedCreatorVPC|Image:Image.ext}} on the creator's talkpage. For example: {{subst:PromotedCreatorVPC|Image:Blue morpho butterfly.jpg}}

This is added to the image page of the promoted image.

Option 1:

{{imbox

| type = notice

| image = Image:Large format camera lens.jpg

| text = This is a Valued Picture, which means that it has been evaluated at Picture peer review and is considered to be of high value to the English Wikipedia, adding significantly to its article.

{{PAGENAME}}

}}

Option 2 (shamelessly stealing the Commons VI seal):

{{imbox

| type = notice

| image = Image:Valued image seal.svg

| text = This is a Valued Picture, which means that it has been evaluated at Picture peer review and is considered to be of high value to the English Wikipedia, adding significantly to its article.
