File:Old_mushroom.jpg

I'm currently working to reduce the number of unidentified photographs of mushrooms on Commons. This mushroom is currently unidentified, and the photo is fairly low quality. Although I could probably make a good guess of what genus it is in, that would just be a guess – and we have high quality photographs of positively identified mushrooms in all of the potential genera this may be in. Because it is unidentified and shows no unique features of the mushrooms (or of anything else) it is out of scope.

To quote Commons:Project scope: “We hold many high quality images of species-identified birds, and there is no realistic educational use for a small, blurry, poorly composed snapshot of an unidentified and unidentifiable bird. Of course, there is always room for another educationally distinct image, for example illustrating some aspect of bird behaviour that we do not currently cover, even if the image is perhaps not of the highest quality.” Kgorman-ucb (talk) 19:34, 21 September 2011 (UTC)

Delete. Image is unused and unlikely to be used per discussion above. Description offers no information other than "Old mushroom" and the uploader is retired. Furthermore, use of the GFDL 1.2-only license means that re-use options are severely limited. Kaldari (talk) 21:11, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
