- Strong oppose because of technical inaccuracy: slide valves do not move "click-clack", they have a sinusoidal movement, coming from the eccentrics on the axle. --Janke | Talk 15:25, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose The caption is not clear; you would have to read the articles that this appeared in to understand it. Eye-catching but not really Wikipedia's best work. --Gabycs 00:04, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- Comment: Why this complaining about captions lately, on this page? Usually there's a different caption in the article, e.g. here in this case on the steam engine page: "An animation of a simplified triple-expansion engine. High-pressure steam (red) enters from the boiler and passes through the engine, exhausting as low-pressure steam (blue) to the condenser." That's good enough for a caption - but the other technical issues remain. --Janke | Talk 05:16, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose, poor caption, technical inaccuracy. We need to crack down on FP noms with bad captions. Too many have slipped through. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 22:47, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- Support: This is an interesting image. Fits all criteria (to the best of my knowledge). ~Steptrip 02:24, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
