Delist and replace: Clearly, because it's the proposed replacement that's being used, and text outside of the graphic is typical. I would suggest that voting delist and not replace at this stage is counter-productive, because it just means no conclusion is reached, instead of succeeding in the primary goal, to swap the star to the new one. Opinion on delisting alone can be made at any other time. Maedin\talk21:22, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
It's not my primary goal to "swap the star to the new one"- we shouldn't give images an easier time just because we're delisting another, similar image. I'm not convinced I would support if the replacement was being nominated anew, so I'm not going to support at this time here. J Milburn (talk) 21:34, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
I kind of see your point, but I think it's illogical (at least in this scenario) to maintain an opinion which will give an unsatisfactory result, than to change it and achieve something, with a view to further movement if need be. I suspect that this image will not be delisted at this time. Neither will it be replaced. So we've already achieved nothing. You may wish for it to be delisted, and can state it as a preference, but if "the power station graphic" is going to remain an FP, might it not as well be the one actually being used? I don't see how a "replace for administration sake, but prefer a straightforward delist" would be a problem. If it does end up being replaced and not delisted, a new delist nom can always be forthcoming, anyway. Well, just a suggestion, :) Maedin\talk21:45, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
So far, we have three people who want it delisted, two who want it replaced. The picture will likely not be in use at the end of the discussion. It will almost certainly be delisted (and, frankly, if it's not in use at the end of the discussion, even if a load of people have shouted keep, it should be delisted...). I consider it highly unlikely (and probably outside the remit of this venue) that the image will be "replaced and not delisted". My vote doesn't make this any less likely to be delisted, just less likely to be replaced. J Milburn (talk) 10:35, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
