Wikipedia:Picture peer review/UofS Lily

University of Saskatchewan lily[edit]

I think this is a worthy candidate for Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates because of its significance to the University of Saskatchewan, and the city of Saskatoon where the campus is located. The flower is registered with the Royal Horticultural Society in London, and bears the colours of the institution: green, white and gold. It was purposely bred and propagated for the university's centennial year in 2007. The lily has been planted in flower beds around the campus and will become an heirloom flower for many people in the city of Saskatoon for years to come. I have placed this image in the main University of Saskatchewan article.

Hmmm... are you sure it's really relevant to the article? I mean, does this actually help a reader learn more about the university itself? To me, it seems of secondary encyclopedic value—it's an interesting subject, but it doesn't really tell me more about the article it illustrates. Thegreenj 18:30, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
