  • Delete. The article already has a likeness of Malcolm Fraser at a similar age, and there is no discussion of this image in the article. Kevin (talk) 09:41, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Criteria claims this is a historical photo, yet there is no discussion of the photo on the article. Other similar photographs already exist on the article and this currently serves no purpose but decoration. Shell 10:30, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

  • This copyrighted picture from a news agency, showing men shanking hands, does not really help us in understanding the text about the important event it shows. Damiens.rf 13:46, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - I have boldly removed this image from 3 articles which did not have fair-use criteria on the description page. I believe a case could be made for inclusion on Boris Yeltsin since the section it appears in is dedicated to describing these men and their influence. I believe the picture, including the recognition from Yelstin and the official surroundings convey an understanding of the position these men came to hold in a way that the article alone could not. However, I would strongly suggest that someone with better knowledge of this particular meeting and its significance update the fair-use rationale to better explain its use.

  • Uploading non-notable pictures form news agencies to illustrate articles about the image subject (and not about the picture) is like kicking a dead horse. Damiens.rf 13:48, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
I'm a bit confused. What reason are you offering for deletion (from policy)? The horse in the picture is used to illustrate an article about said horse.... Fritzpoll (talk) 14:27, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Associated press will be glad to allow you to use this picture to illustrate an article about said horse, as long as you agree to pay a small fee. What's "fair" about using it freely? --Damiens.rf 14:40, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
In fairness, Damien, where in your nomination does it say that's why you nominated it? I was asking a genuine question, since my mind-reading powers are acting up today Fritzpoll (talk) 14:48, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
"non-notable pictures form news agencies to illustrate articles about the image subject ". I.e., our use is not transformative. It's competitive. -Damiens.rf 15:10, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Where on earth is there a statement by this image stating that we must "pay" for its use??? "Uploading non-notable pictures????" An image which identifies a dead horse during its life and racing career which is discussed in the article is non notable?? It is without a doubt perfectly appropriate and generally acceptable on here. The Bald One 14:57, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
A "Notable picture of a horse" is not the same as a "Picture of a notable horse". --Damiens.rf 15:10, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
And you think this image is not a "notable picture" of the horse? What is then? One standing up on his hind legs and flashing a large wide grin at the photpgrapher? The Bald One 15:15, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Yes, as far as I can tell, this picture is not notable. A notable picture would have be commented about by reliable sources. Winning awards also helps the case. --Damiens.rf 15:35, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

  • This copyrighted picture from a news agency, showing men shanking hands, does not really help us in understanding the text about the important event it shows. Damiens.rf 13:51, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - no critical commentary about the photograph or any historical significance in the article. Unlikely that a simple photo of someone receiving the award is significantly different than text describing the event. Shell 10:46, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

  • Image copied from a news source, not used for commentary about the image itself (because it's not notable). Important Notice: If you plan to argue about "irreplaceable images" or "deceased individuals", you probably haven't understood the reasoning behind this nomination, or the workings of WP:NFCC. Damiens.rf 13:57, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • I wouldn't worry about me not understanding the NFCC. The image is not taken from a news source, but from the personal photos belonging to the family, who released the image to the BBC as part of their campaign to clear Gordon's name. As such, the image has no commercial value, and its use here could be argued to be beneficial to the copyright holder (probably Gordon, alternatively, one of the couple's children) in publicising the case. This article contains a significant amount of biographical/character information on Carol (with her being the second person, after Gordon) and so if a non-free image of deceased individual can be justified on a biographical stub, it can be justified here. J Milburn (talk) 15:11, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment: I understand that this might be a personal photo, but my goodness, that's just a horrible image - its pixelated and blurry to the point that I wouldn't be certain it actually does even a decent job of identifying the subject. If these were release by the family, is there any chance we could find an archived copy that at least does her some justice or are they all of this low quality? Shell 10:50, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. Meets WP:NFCC. Until better quality image is found. Ty 01:46, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

  • It would be nice if you weren't so patronizing to other users; people interpret NFCC differently. On the subject of the image itself, it meets all criteria of the NFCC; most importantly, it heavily adds to the article. I've tweaked the caption, too. Maxim (☎) 14:24, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
    • I would be highly interested in an interpretation of fair use law that would allow us to freely use copyrighted images from news agency. (And of course, I don't see how an interpretation of NFCC that is more permissive than the fair use law could be of any use). --Damiens.rf 14:53, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Damiens.rf 14:14, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Completely inadequate nomination. Image has a full rationale and caption on the image within the article identifying the women on her 114th birthday which a free alterative cannot provide as it doesn't exist and this is both encyclopedic, beneficial to the reader and genrally acceptable on here.
Keep She is dead, it is unlikely any more pictures will be taken of her, we can have a non-free image of her since she is dead. MBisanz 14:40, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Oh, not! You really argued about "irreplaceable images" AND "deceased individuals"! Here comes one more off-topic deletion discussion! Please, please, please, please explain how is it fair to freely use an image a news agency spent money for taking and asks money for reusing? And explain how does the woman's death or the lack of an alternative ever help our case? --Damiens.rf 14:45, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
We've been over the subject of fair use many times before, using an image to describe a dead person from a news agency would be fair use because we are using it in an educational, encyclopedic setting. We are tagging it as non-free so other people will know that and attempt not to use it in a manner that would harm the economic interests of the copyrightholder. MBisanz 14:50, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
But we are harming the copyright owner. If the biggest free website on the net uses it, its news value decreases. Thus, the incentive to buy a license for it for a commercial news outlet that wants to report about that lady is lessened. We are in direct competition here with anybody else who might want to commercially report about the case. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:55, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
What are you talking about? All of the main global news agencies used this image to illustrate her. Clearly they didn't all take the image. It is used commercially and likely to have been sene my millions of people so if you are under the delusion that is it somehow a private image in which the creator charges an exorbitant fee to the user than you are sorely mistaken, If you are under the impression that fair use images cannot be used because for some reason we have to pay for them you are going to find several hundred thousand images to try to delete. The Bald One 15:00, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
If they use our image, they are violating the copyright, the same as the person who uploaded it from the news agency would if they attempted to use it for a commercial purpose. Regardless of our actions, commercial use would be impermissible. MBisanz 15:00, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Exactly. The Bald One 15:01, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete This is a copyright violation, plain and simple. The AP charges for the use of its photos. We cannot use the AP photo without paying. This is not a transformative use of the photograph. Furthermore, it is not necessary to the reader to see what she looks like. Calliopejen1 (talk) 16:06, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. WP:NFC#Unacceptable use images #6. howcheng {chat} 17:59, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy keep Uploader is making a WP:POINT nomination, as s/he is acknowledging with the "important notice" that this passes the fair use criteria, which it unabashedly does. WP:IFD isn't a place to challenge the rightness of our fair use policy. Nyttend (talk) 01:27, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
    • Procedural note (for this and all below where Nyttend has made the same point): Speedy keep is out of the question. There are a dozen or so NFC criteria, and an image has to pass every one of them. The nominator was merely trying to forestall a misunderstanding by pointing out that it's not this one NFCC that is broken but another. Fut.Perf. ☼ 06:58, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
      • No it isn't: the nominator is challenging the very notion of fair use, saying that the idea of having a fair-use picture for identification of a dead person is invalid. This is at odds with common practice, as can easily be seen: the nominator's concern is with the idea of using pictures produced by someone else's money without paying for them, not with the idea that it's okay under certain circumstances that this image doesn't fulfill. That concern is properly taken up at other places, such as the policy village pump. Nyttend (talk) 11:33, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Note: A different image was uploaded to replace this one at Yone Minagawa. The rationale says the image has "appeared in numerous other newspapers" but that "the original photographer is not mentioned". The rationale further speculates that our free use "is believed to not affect the copywright holder". The source given is a direct url to a jpg file (what's technically invalid) in the daylife.com domain. Some research shows that the page displaying this image on daylife.com credits this image to "AP Photo by Kyodo News". Should a new IFD be created, or can we just make Image:Yone_Minagawa3.JPEG join this nomination? --Damiens.rf 13:31, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
    • I've added a note at the top. In any case, at least one of these will have to be deleted again per WP:NFCC#3, even if the other is kept.

The event was surely unusual, but this picture doesn't really helps one to understand the situation. I'm not arguing for it to be replaced by another picture.

All images of films are copyrighted; that is why we have the fair-use policy. There is nothing objectionable to using this image in the Supercouple article. How does it not help us understand the article? That section is discussing film supercouples. It mentions supercouple Jack and Rose, who happen to be a part of the highest-grossing film ever. The image displays these characters, who are being discussed/addressed within the article, which is no different than the many other copyrighted images of fictional characters accompanying content being discussed in regular, good or featured articles on Misplaced Pages. If this image were just for show, I would see your point. But it is not just for show, and thus I do not see your point. Furthermore, it is the only image within that section, and is the only image in that section for a reason, given this fictional couple's impact. Flyer22 (talk) 16:44, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
This image of fictional characters is no different the showing the happy image of Bianca and Maggie in the Gay and lesbian section of the Supercouple article, who are also being addressed/discussed. The use of these images are in complete correspondence with Misplaced Pages's image policy. Flyer22 (talk) 18:26, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
I also added more to this image's caption, which further relates directly to the text. And must state that this couple is not exactly "happy" at this moment in the film (they were happy right before that moment, sure). Flyer22 (talk) 21:43, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

All images of magazines are copyrighted; that is why we have the fair-use policy. There is nothing objectionable to using this image in the Supercouple article. How does it not help us understand the article? That section is discussing celebrity supercouples. It mentions the couple's child Shiloh, and how that child was featured on the cover of Hello! magazine. The image displays the child and that fact, who is being discussed/addressed within the article along with her parents. Featuring an image in this way is no different than the many other copyrighted magazine images that accompany content being discussed in regular, good or featured articles on Misplaced Pages. If this image were just for show, I would see your point. But it is not just for show, and thus I do not see your point. Flyer22 (talk) 16:44, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. See More Demi Moore for a valid use of a magazine cover. howcheng {chat} 17:58, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. I do not see how the use of that image is any different than the use of a magazine cover in this case, and I can also point out a few examples of my own. Showing images where the content being discussed can be easily conveyed by just words is when fair-use policy is not applicable. In this case, there is no way that a reader can easily guess what the cover Shiloh appeared on looked/looks like. The image is therefore providing the reader with the knowledge of the content (notable content) that took place at that time that cannot be attained by simply using the imagination. Not to mention, that section mentions nothing of Jolie and Pitt appearing on the cover with the child, though that can be arranged. The use of this image is in complete correspondence with Misplaced Pages's image policy. Flyer22 (talk) 18:20, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
    • Firstly, please don't preface each comment with "keep"; it creates the illusion that there is more support than actually exists. Secondly, More Demi Moore is an article about about the magazine cover itself: This Vanity Fair cover in and of itself became infamous and led to a number of parodies, including the film poster for Naked Gun 33⅓ which then led to a lawsuit Leibovitz v. Paramount Pictures Corp. Is this Hello cover anywhere near equivalent? If it is, then you are free to add more information to the Supercouple article but you have to talk about this specific magazine cover and that commentary must be cited to reliable sources. howcheng {chat} 18:27, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
      • Firstly, I was not trying to give the allusion of anything. I did not feel that I had properly voted. Secondly, are you kidding me? People paid more than $4.1 million for the North American rights, while British magazine Hello! obtained the international rights for roughly $3.5 million; the total rights sale earned up to $10 million worldwide, and became the most expensive celebrity image of all time. That is in this article and is discussed in this article. This image is extremely notable. I would even say more notable than that Demi Moore image you cited, since it became the most expensive celebrity image of all time (though it is not anymore). Pitt and Jolie giving the money received for publicly publishing the image to charity is also mentioned in the article. It almost makes no sense not to have an image in that section about this super image that is discussed in that section. Sure, the Pitt and Jolie articles do not feature it, but that would be overkill, anyway, and it is completely justifiable that this image is included within this article. Flyer22 (talk) 18:38, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
        • Okay, I see the part about this in the Angelina Jolie article has been updated; now the most expensive celebrity image is something else (which is why I tweaked my above comment), but is still about Pitt and Jolie. I will now have to tweak that part of the Supercouple article. But all in all, this image is still notable and is still discussed in this article. Flyer22 (talk) 18:52, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

  • Image copied from a news source, not used for commentary about the image itself (because it's not notable by itself). Important Notice: Yes, the image is probably irreplaceable, and yes it probably shows an "historic event".

  • Delete: WP:NFC#Unacceptable use images #6. howcheng {chat} 17:57, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep: the bit Howcheng cites is intended as an example of what isn't appropriate in general. As there's no way of creating new pictures of this event, it's irreplaceable, and fulfills the fair use criteria. Nyttend (talk) 01:13, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
    • News photos are generally not re-creatable because news events only happen once. Once an airplane crashes, it can't crash again, so duh, no free replacement will be forthcoming. However, that does not give us license to violate the BBC's copyright. There are four factors for determining fair use under U.S. law, one of them being the purpose of the work -- to meet this, you can use the work in a transformative manner, or you can use it for educational or non-profit purposes. The latter two are irrelevant here because they are incompatible with the Foundation's goals (and regardless, they would probably be rendered moot because Misplaced Pages is one of the top ten sites on the Internet, meaning our "small" infringement reaches a wide audience). We are not using this in a transformative manner, so there's no way we come even close to this criterion, and there's no way this would qualify as fair use, even if our NFCC weren't intentionally more restrictive than what the law might allow. howcheng {chat} 02:33, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. I understand the nominator's rationale, but I strongly disagree with it. As Nyttend says, there is no way a free image could ever be prepared for this historical event. As the uploader, I stand by my original judgment that this photo qualifies as fair use. --John (talk) 03:36, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep. I find it absolutely stupefying to read that a picture of an event does not help us to understand the text. Texts and images complement each other and are each able to communicate aspects that the other medium cannot. If that were not the case, there would be no need for pictures, anywhere, ever. We would just have texts. Meets WP:NFCC. See also WT:NFC#Press agency photos. Ty 02:23, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

    I good-faithly fail to understand your good-faith argument for keeping the image. --Damiens.rf 21:30, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. Ones good faith in the nom's diligent research before nominating the image is severely stretched, when he describes it as "two men chatting", when a) Atta was refusing to "chat" (see the video here and b) the person in the white top is Liz Jackson, who is a woman. Images of events do help us to gain a greater apprehension of that event. the nom states this is an important event. Image meets WP:NFCC. See also WT:NFC#Press agency photos. Ty 02:51, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. Can be replaced with: "Liz Jackson" tried to interview Atta's father. She met him in the street, but he declined talking to her. This conveys exactly the same amount of information, or rather: a lot more. The photograph contributes nothing at all, since it's so small and blurry one can't even distinguish what it shows. Plus, the scene of the attempted interview isn't even discussed further in either of the articles in question, so it's clearly not of crucial significance to the understanding of the whole article.
