The community is already discussing this matter Andreas.
What you are doing is, since your "vote" is not going the way you want (the picture, apparentely, will remain as a FP) you are canvassing votes here, so people can go there are vote to delist the image.
That, my dear, is pure canvass, and is not allowed in any project.
So, again, stop do that. _____ *Béria Lima* Wikimedia Portugal http://wikimedia.pt/ (351) 963 953 042

Andreas,
Again: Stop canvassing your POV!!! This list (and Commons-l) are not for that. That is my last warning
This list was set up to discuss systemic issues in Foundation projects. In the opinion of several contributors here, this specific issue is profoundly symptomatic of the issue this list was set up to discuss.
This includes Commons selecting images for featured status on the basis of comments like "I like her big tits", rather than artistic merit, and then featuring them on the main page. Or creating categories like "People using vacuum cleaners".

In my view, it's a basic community competence issue.
