- Actually, there were two attempts to feature Arizona media before this one. I originally nominated this in 2005, but the image at the time was judged to be too small for FP status, and thus it failed. An unrelated attempt to feature a similar image was made by Durova's in 2008, but in that case the image failed to gain consensus. Just thought you all would like to know :) TomStar81 (Talk) 11:09, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
