Loosely speaking, examples on the left are "Bongard Problems that can be self-similar". However, Bongard Problems with images of themselves deeply nested in boxes or rotated/flipped are not here considered "self-similar"; the Bongard Problem must use itself, as-is (allowing downward scaling and allowing infinite detail, ignoring pixelation--see keyword infinitedetail), as a panel.

Bongard Problems fitting left evidently come in three categories: 1) the Bongard Problem could only appear on its own left side, 2) the Bongard Problem could appear on its own right side, or 3) the Bongard Problem could appear on its own left or the right side. See BP987.

Meta Bongard Problems appearing in BP793 that are presentationinvariant necessarily fit left here.

All examples here are in the conventional format, i.e. white background, black vertical dividing line, and examples in boxes on either side. (A more general version of this Bongard Problem might allow many formats of Bongard Problems, sorting an image left if a self-similar version is possible having the same solution and format. This more general version would no longer be tagged presentationinvariant, since sorting would not only depend on solution, but also format.)

It would hint at the solution (keyword help) to only include images of Bongard Problems that, as it stands, are already clearly categorized on one side by themselves. (That is, images of Bongard Problems that belong on one of the two sides of BP793.) It is tricky to come up with images that are categorized by themselves as it stands but that could NOT be recursively included within themselves. EX7967, EX7999, EX7995, and EX6574 are some examples.

See BP987 which narrows down the left-hand side of this BP further based on whether or not the BP could contain itself as a panel on both sides.

Left examples have the keyword "infinitedetail" on the OEBP.

Image files on the OEBP do not really have infinite detail. For a panel to be intuitively read as having infinite detail, there usually needs to be some apparent self-similarity, or perhaps a sequence of objects following an easy to read pattern getting smaller and smaller with increasing pixelation.

Usually in "infinitedetail" Bongard Problems, not only is it a puzzle to figure out the solution, but it is another puzzle to find self-similarities and understand the intended infinite detail in each example.

BPs tagged with the keyword "infinitedetail" usually feature pixelated images that give the closest approximation of the intended infinite structure up to pixelation. This means they should be tagged with the keyword perfect, but should not be tagged with the keyword pixelperfect.

Just because a Bongard Problem has "infinitedetail" does not necessarily make it infodense. Some fractal images might be encoded by a small amount of information (just the information about which places within itself it includes smaller copies of itself) and may be recognized quickly.

Left-sorted Bongard Problems have the keyword "visualimagination" on the OEBP.

Many things might be called "creating a picture". For example, drawing a path in a maze. However, use this keyword to indicate a Bongard Problem requires the solver to create something totally new "on a separate piece of paper" (whether mentally or physically), beyond just annotating the existing picture.

A "visualimagination" BP will likely be hardsort.

"Visualimagination" BPs are abstract.

"Visualimagination" BPs are are often about deciding whether some potential thing exists. (See BP634 for Bongard Problems featuring the concept ofexistence.) One can demonstrate it exists by constructing it.
