- Info created by Buster Keaton and Edward Sedgwick - uploaded to commons by SDudley - nominated by SDudley -- SDudley (talk) 00:25, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
- Support This film was Keaton's first at MGM, one of his final two directed features, and regarded as one of his best features. It entered the American public domain this year on January 1, 2024. Its contemporary from earlier in the year Steamboat Bill Jr. entered the public domain in 1956 when its copyright was not renewed. The fact of this film entering the public domain 68 years later exhibits the long length of copyright term. Plus I personally find this film to be quite funny and an artistic triumph by Keaton. -- SDudley (talk) 00:25, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
- Support Probably Keaton's last great film (although his career would continue for quite some time). Definitely worthy of FM. -- Abzeronow (talk) 00:33, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

- Comment One question, though: How is lassi unique to Dhaka? I drank it all over North India, and I've had it in the UK and the U.S. When you say it's a "unique heritage," does lassi originate in Dhaka? It was all over Delhi in 1977. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:56, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Ikan Kekek Lassi is believed to originate from Punjab, India even 200 years before christ. Bangladesh was a part of the greater India before 1947 and thus lassi is familiar in Bangladesh also. In Bangladesh, we pronounce it "Lacchi" instead of "Lassi" and I heard some food lovers saying that the Lassi of Dhaka tastes different than that of Punjab or other parts of India. It was the British empire that spread lassi all around the world, that's why lassi can even be found in some western countries. Dhaka (basically old Dhaka) is preserving some of the culinary heritages till now, including lassi, bakarkhani and kacchi. The shop where this video was shot, is preparing Dhakai Lacchi in the same recipe for the last 100 years. Wasiul Bahar (talk) 18:33, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks. So lassi is not a unique heritage of Old Dhaka. I will delete that sentence. Could you please delete the equivalent remarks in Bengali? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:36, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

- Neutral Interesting content and the quality of the video is fine. Throughout the video though, there's a lot of unsteady hand movement and an awkward crop. A tripod would have been great. -- Sea Cow (talk) 13:27, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

Closing a featured media promotion request[edit]
The bot[edit]
Note that the description below is for manual closure, this is mostly not needed anymore as there exists a bot (FeaturedMediaBot) that counts the votes and handles the process below. However after the bot has counted the votes a manual review step is used to make sure the count is correct before the bot again picks up the work.
Manual procedure[edit]
Any experienced user may close requests.
- In Commons:Featured media candidates/candidate list click on the title/link of the candidate media, then [edit].
Add the result of the voting at the bottom (on a new line with a space first)
(for example see Commons:Featured media candidates/File:Tverskaya Street in Moscow, Russia (May 1896).webm). See also {{FMC-results-reviewed}}.
{{FMC-results-reviewed|support=x|oppose=x|neutral=x|featured=("yes" or "no")|category=xxx (leave blank if "featured=no")|sig=~~~~}} - Also edit the title of the candidate media template and add after the media tag
featured or not featured
For example:
=== [[:File:example.ext]] ===
becomes
=== [[:File:example.ext]], featured === - Save your edit.
- If it is featured:
- Add the media to the list of the four most recently featured media of an appropriate category of Commons:Featured media, list as the first one and delete the last one, so that the number is four again.
- Also add the media to an appropriate subpage of Commons:Featured media, list. Click on the most appropriate link beneath where you just added it as one of the four media.
- Add the template {{FM_promoted|featured=1}} to the media description page.
- If it was an alternative media, use the subpage/com-nom parameter: For example, if File:Foo.webm was promoted at Commons:Featured media candidates/File:Bar.webm, use {{FM_promoted|featured=1|com-nom=Bar.webm}}
- If the media is already featured on another wikipedia, just ignore that and add the template.
- Add the media to the current month's FM log of featured media, add {{Commons:Featured media candidates/File:example.ext}} to the bottom of the list.
- Add == FM promotion ==
{{FMpromotion|File:example.ext}} to the Talk Page of the nominator AND {{FMpromotedUploader|File:example.ext}} to the talk page of uploader.
- As the last step (whether the media is featured or not; including {{FMX}}ed, {{FMD}}ed and withdrawn nominations), open Commons:Featured media candidates/candidate list, click on [edit], and find the transclusion of the nomination you've just finished closing. It will be of the form:
{{Commons:Featured media candidates/File:example.ext}}
Copy it to the bottom of Commons:Featured media candidates/Log/April 2024), save that page, and remove it from the candidate list.
Archiving a withdrawn nomination[edit]
- In Commons:Featured media candidates/candidate list click on the title/link of the candidate media , then [edit].
In the purpose that the FMCBot will not mark withdrawn nominations with a "to be reviewed" template and put them in Category:Featured media candidates awaiting closure review just like if they were on the usual list, put the following "no" template:
{{FMC-results-reviewed|support=X|oppose=X|neutral=X|featured=no|category=|sig=--~~~~}} - Also edit the title of the candidate media template and add after the media tag
not featured
For example:
=== [[:File:example.ext]] ===
becomes
=== [[:File:example.ext]], not featured === - Save your edit.
- Open Commons:Featured media candidates/candidate list, click on [edit], and find the transclusion of the nomination. It will be of the form:
{{Commons:Featured media candidates/File:example.ext}}
Copy it to the bottom of Commons:Featured media candidates/Log/April 2024), save that page, and remove it from the candidate list.
