File:Venus de Tamtoc 2.webm[edit]

OOS digital fantasy woman. (Compliments on your work, but IMO not realistically useful for Commons.) Relationship to pre-Columbian sculpture is minimal at best. Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 17:02, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, thanks on the compliments. I based the body proportions and shape to the pre-contact statue known as Venus of Tamtoc, including the sacred scarifications. The original statue is nude. There is relationship based on all that except the head and feet.
Would a video of the comparison of the dimensions be accepted? The original documentary I did about her is in YouTube. Should I upload the entire documentary?
I understand your preoccupation, although unlike Wikipedia I thought Wikimedia was not about gathering consensus around an image’s claim —- or sources for said claims.
If a painting is said to portray, say Joan of Arc, and she wouldn’t fit into the image of someone’s idea of Joan of Arc… would that painting also be deleted? I ask sincerely, because I’ve been uploading paintings and drawings as well. Miguel Angel Omaña Rojas (talk) 01:19, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep did you even read the description? This is a recreation of an ancient statue, not a “digital fantasy woman”. It would be nice to have a comparison image of the actual statue, but if there’s a concern here it’s accuracy rather than “it’s porn lol” Dronebogus (talk) 12:29, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I certainly did read the description before making this nomination. I am familiar with the pre-Columbian statue (and you can be as well by doing a search for photos), after which you can make up your own mind as to if this can legitimately be considered an educational archaeological reconstruction or more of a digital fantasy woman with a few details vaguely influenced by the pre-Columbian art. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 16:42, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    It appears to be an accurate recreation. I mostly object to your characterization of it as an “OOS fantasy woman”, which in this context (a good faith contribution To an in-scope topic) is a vague non-rationale that also seems like you’re insinuating a sexual ulterior motive as a reason to delete.

  •  Delete per nom. Video doesn't even show a statue, but a moving woman, appearing as if alive. --P 1 9 9  ✉ 15:29, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
