Speaking only for myself as a Misplaced Pages user, it's a little muddled and unclear here exactly who is advocating for removal of Scott Brown's photo. Hekerui?
Someone else? I do think, whomever the advocate of removal is, that their timing and motivation seem a bit questionable right before a potentially close
political election.....Frank M. DiGiovanni

*CV: Speculation as to whether or not Senator Brown submitted either version of this image to the mass.gov Web site, is immaterial to the matter at hand. While it is true that the second version of this image does not appear on Senator Brown's official mass.gov Web site, the original version of this image does. A debate over the copyright status of an image that actually appears at the official site of the Massachusetts government is, perhaps, worth having—but given that there is a highly-controversial election involving the Senator within the next few days, usage of the original version of this image would seem undeniably consistent with "Fair Use" principles and the image should ''not'' be deleted prior to the election itself on 19 Jan 2010. Reverted to the original image, so as to mitigate Misplaced Pages controversy prior to said election. ] (]) (]). <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added 22:20, 14 January 2010 (UTC).</span><!--Template:Undated--> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

*'''Delete'''. Macslacker's arguments lack merit.
::(1) "A debate over the copyright status of an image that actually appears at the official site of the Massachusetts government is, perhaps, worth having...." It's worth having only if there's some evidence that the image was created by a state or local agency and that the term "record" in the Massachusetts law refers to photographs, as opposed to the obvious public records like "minutes of local board meetings, town meeting documents, warrants, street lists, municipal financial documents, etc." If Macslacker has any substantive information that would refute the points made by Hekerui, s/he should have presented such information here.
::(2) "sage of the original version of this image would seem undeniably consistent with 'Fair Use' principles...." Whether or not it's generally ] under U.S. copyright law, it can't be used here if use would violate Misplaced Pages policy. The applicable policy states: "'''No free equivalent.''' Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available, or could be created, that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose." (from ]) The man is campaigning for the Senate and is being photographed constantly, so of course there are free equivalents, such as .
::(3) "iven that there is a highly-controversial election involving the Senator within the next few days...." Irrelevant. If use of the image would violate Misplaced Pages policy, as it clearly would, we can't just use it anyway on the rationale that the violation will be for only a few days and we really really want to do it.
:I note also that our article on Brown's opponent, ], is illustrated by . It's not her official Attorney General photo (which you can see on the Commonwealth's website ); instead, like the free image of Brown that I linked above, it's a photo taken at a public event and uploaded with proper licensing to Misplaced Pages. ]<small>&nbsp;]&nbsp;]</small> 07:54, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

*'''Delete'''. Clearly a professional studio photograph. Unless evidence is emailed to OTRS stating that anyone may use this image for any purpose, then it must be deleted since there is already a free equivalent available. --] (] - ]) 14:49, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

  • This image is so similar to the original Dark Side of the Moon cover image that its presence here is unwarranted.

  • Non-free image of an existing musical group. While I understand that this a promotional photo, which they may be happy for us to use, we don't host non-free images where a free replacement could be made (see WP:NFCC#1) Peripitus (Talk) 05:34, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
  • Delete Replaceable fair use image of an active group. --Apoc2400 (talk) 00:21, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
  • No free or public domain images have been located that portrays the whole group as is necessary for identification of band members. If you can find an image to replace it with that displays all band members than I would agree with this deletion request but I have not been able to locate one. THDju (talk) 22:16, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
  • Delete To the above commenter, replaceability means not just whether an existing free image can be found, but whether a free image could be taken that conveys the same information. The answer to that is yes, because the band still exists. Therefore, the image is replaceable. --Mkativerata (talk) 00:45, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
  • I appreciate the clarification Mkativerata. I have emailed the band asking them to release the photo under CC. Once I get a response I will go thru the OTRS process that another user so graciously explained to me. I will keep this board posted. THDju (talk) 22:43, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

  • The currently uploaded image is not in the source and the previously uploaded image with a source has no evidence of being a "public record created by the Massachusetts General Court", especially since it's not a "record". The image is likely owned and was submitted to the MA website by Brown himself. Hekerui (talk) 18:05, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
    Speaking only for myself as a Misplaced Pages user, it's a little muddled and unclear here exactly who is advocating for removal of Scott Brown's photo.  Hekerui?
 Someone else?  I do think, whomever the advocate of removal is, that their timing and motivation seem a bit questionable right before a potentially close
political election.....Frank M. DiGiovanni
  • CV: Speculation as to whether or not Senator Brown submitted either version of this image to the mass.gov Web site, is immaterial to the matter at hand. While it is true that the second version of this image does not appear on Senator Brown's official mass.gov Web site, the original version of this image does. A debate over the copyright status of an image that actually appears at the official site of the Massachusetts government is, perhaps, worth having—but given that there is a highly-controversial election involving the Senator within the next few days, usage of the original version of this image would seem undeniably consistent with "Fair Use" principles and the image should not be deleted prior to the election itself on 19 Jan 2010. Reverted to the original image, so as to mitigate Misplaced Pages controversy prior to said election. Macslacker (talk) (contribs). —Preceding undated comment added 22:20, 14 January 2010 (UTC).
  • Delete. Macslacker's arguments lack merit.
(1) "A debate over the copyright status of an image that actually appears at the official site of the Massachusetts government is, perhaps, worth having...." It's worth having only if there's some evidence that the image was created by a state or local agency and that the term "record" in the Massachusetts law refers to photographs, as opposed to the obvious public records like "minutes of local board meetings, town meeting documents, warrants, street lists, municipal financial documents, etc." If Macslacker has any substantive information that would refute the points made by Hekerui, s/he should have presented such information here.
(2) "sage of the original version of this image would seem undeniably consistent with 'Fair Use' principles...." Whether or not it's generally fair use under U.S. copyright law, it can't be used here if use would violate Misplaced Pages policy. The applicable policy states: "No free equivalent. Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available, or could be created, that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose." (from Misplaced Pages:Non-free content criteria#Policy) The man is campaigning for the Senate and is being photographed constantly, so of course there are free equivalents, such as this one.
(3) "iven that there is a highly-controversial election involving the Senator within the next few days...." Irrelevant. If use of the image would violate Misplaced Pages policy, as it clearly would, we can't just use it anyway on the rationale that the violation will be for only a few days and we really really want to do it.
I note also that our article on Brown's opponent, Martha Coakley, is illustrated by this photo. It's not her official Attorney General photo (which you can see on the Commonwealth's website here); instead, like the free image of Brown that I linked above, it's a photo taken at a public event and uploaded with proper licensing to Misplaced Pages.

  • Delete. Clearly a professional studio photograph. Unless evidence is emailed to OTRS stating that anyone may use this image for any purpose, then it must be deleted since there is already a free equivalent available. --Tom (talk - email) 14:49, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
