(https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia&oldid=904284232, 02.07.2019) --- ### Featured picture candidates - Bildqualität - Bildwert - bedeutende Werke - künstlerische Leistung - illustratorische Relevanz - **historische Relevanz** ---- "The historical method values very early illustrations of scenes and events over later ones. Hence, a work of poor quality depicting a contemporaneous historical event can be nonetheless important, even if the artistic merit is relatively low. Likewise, scans or photographs of important documents – which may not be at all artistic – nonetheless may be highly valuable if the documents are historically significant. The reason for the image's historical importance should be briefly stated in the nomination, for those reviewers unfamiliar with the subject."
