  • A press photo used to identify who wears a brand of shirt ? Fails all parts of WP:NFCC Peripitus (Talk) 10:17, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. Following points of WP:NFCC are respected: (1) There is no free equivalent. This point has already been made about Image:Charles_J._Haughey.jpg; (2)and (3b) The image is a cropped as possible and low res, so unlikely to replace the original market role of the original media; (4): previously published on the BBC website, with no copyright indication; (5), (7) (8)and (9): visual illustration of the article; (6) and (10): fair use rationale presented. Pending the end of this discussion, I removed the controversial image from the page. Racconish (talk) 10:48, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Fails WP:NFCC2 (we don't ordinarily use news images without an extremely good reason) and WP:NFCC8 (readers can understand who wears a shirt without seeing a picture of it). Calliopejen1 (talk) 15:27, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

  • Replaceable fair-use image - fails WP:NFCC#1. As the subject is still alive it is possible to create a free replacement....however hard this is I've been reminded that he recently died... I will have a look as it seems unlikely such a well known author was not photographed extensively by people who don't make money from the exercise - Peripitus (Talk) 11:16, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

If you think Michael Crichton is alive and living, you should seriously start reading the newspapers or watching the news. Count Blofeld 11:18, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete He is dead, but I find it hard to believe that no one has a photo of Crichton that they would be willing to license freely. One of the missing-image boxes might generate an upload. It is also hard to ask permission to freely license a photo if we already are using a non-free one. I couldn't find any possibilities on flickr, but there are other places to request from. Several possibilities to contact and request free licensing: Harvard Gazette (unlikely but possible), skeptic.com (seems like a good chance of getting a CC license because they already have a vague statement granting permission for use at the bottom), random apparent amateur photographer (who knows). Calliopejen1 (talk) 18:55, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Here is an image from Flickr, which is already licensed under the Attribution-NonCommercial CC license [http://flickr.com/photos/ilovechin/3011971210/sizes/o Michael Crichton by Chee Chin]. mohit.ed (talk) 01:53, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

I disagree. The caption you have removed was explaining the relationship between the image and the text:"The white open collar Charvet shirt has become part of Bernard-Henri Lévy's visual identity." The article links to a source (Weber, Caroline (September 2008). "Brains of the outfit". New York Times. Retrieved 2008-10-04.) where you can read for yourself about the "the suavely unbuttoned garment that for his fans and detractors alike has become synonymous with his name". Another source (Ireland, Doug (March 3, 2006). "The lies of Bernard-Henry Lévy". In these times. Retrieved 2008-11-16.), related to an eponymous book, says:"That unbuttoned white shirt, by the way, is an important element of BHL’s TV and public images and it tells a lot about the man. If you tried it with your own shirt, the collar would sag. But BHL’s shirts are specially designed by the famous shirt-maker Charvet, with collars that withstand the unbuttoning and never disappear under his jacket." I could quote more sources but hope you will find these convincing enough. Pending the issue of this discussion, I remove the image from the article. Thank you, Racconish (talk) 13:57, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete If it is so much a part of his identity, we should be able to get a free image. Calliopejen1 (talk) 18:57, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Point made on part of identity, which you seem to accept, justifies it's not "eye-candy" but a visual clarification of the text. It is an argument in favor of fair use, not deletion. Naturally, it would be simpler to get a free image, but there is none, as explained in the fair use rationale. You can check on  : the image is used on the flap part of the cover of the book Ce grand cadavre à la renverse, which justifies its choice. Racconish (talk) 09:45, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

  • Copyvio. Claimed as being released to public domain by the copyright holder, but, as also stated in the description, it simply is taken from BirdLife International. Note the "© 2008 BirdLife International." at the bottom of the page. See also section 3 in Terms and conditions. This illustration was originally made for Threatened birds of the World published in 2000 by Lynx Edicions in cooperation with BirdLife International. • Rabo³ • 12:34, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Of note that it appears this user has added little if any non-copyvio to wiki. I've just cleaned up his copyvio contributions to Baudo Guan and El Chocó (the latter now a redirect). A fast check suggests other things added by this user are problematic, too, though some have been modified to an extend where little (if any) true copyvio remains. • Rabo³ • 14:08, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

  • Decorative image showing a future murderer, 2 rifles and a puppy. Not really helpful to the article. Damiens.rf 13:10, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep, photo was widely published by news sources at the time as Whitman displayed obsessive attitude towards firearms, and then became the most prolific criminal sniper in known history -- very relevant, no loss of commercial viability, low-resolution, fits Fair-Use to a tee. Sherurcij 23:02, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep! I've changed my view. Since the photo was staged by the father, there may be some merit to incorporating it into the article. He obviously didn't shoot the dog. Plus, he didn't kill their pet dog Scochie either before killing his wife and the other victims at UT. He was Pre-Peta!Victor9876 (talk) 02:11, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - Image is more than decorative, it is used to illustrate a point made in the article regarding subject's early exposure to guns. Use is in congruence with rationale for illustration in Misplaced Pages articles. Wildhartlivie (talk) 03:38, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Neutral I'm torn. I think it would depend on how widely this photo was published, which isn't entirely clear. If this photo was reprinted everywhere as evidence that he was obsessed with guns as a child, it would be worth keeping. If not, I don't think it satisfies WP:NFCC8. Calliopejen1 (talk) 15:33, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

  • Strong Keep, borders on bad-faith nomination as nominator has suggested deleting almost every photo from Charles Whitman, usually saying they're "disgusting" which really isn't relevant in any way to their encyclopaedic value in showing the human, and criminal, side of the subject. Photo was published by news sources at the time, of the most prolific criminal sniper in known history. -- very relevant, no loss of commercial viability, low-resolution, fits Fair-Use to a tee. Sherurcij 23:04, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Again, prior publishing may have had permission from photograher or family member. Also, the wife still has family alive and may object. Delete. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Victor9876 (talk • contribs) 02:14, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
    • Note that this vote is placed by the four-time perma-banned troll, and former best friend of the man credited with shooting with Whitman before a falling-out led to a lawsuit against him. He is a sock of User:Subwayjack, who was banned after making death threats, legal threats, removing photographs from the article and disrupting the project to such a degree that Jimbo himself had to intervene. He routinely registers socks to get around his many perma-bans, and is a troll at best, a criminal liability at worst. Sherurcij 03:07, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - Image is more than decorative. It illustrates the subject of the article and his wife, whom he murdered in the spree, and reinforces the change in subject. Wildhartlivie (talk) 03:43, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete give me a break, bad faith nomination? This is not necessary to understand the article, fails WP:NFCC8. Calliopejen1 (talk) 15:31, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - passes NFCC#8. Whitman's wife was a murder victim, so this shows a contrast between Whitman's earlier happy life and what happened later. This is again visual evidence documenting a murder spree and significantly increases reader's understanding of what happened. It should be kept. INTGAFW (talk) 21:38, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

The image is low resolution and presented in small thumbnail. There is no valid reason for removal from article or deletion. Wildhartlivie (talk) 04:21, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep. Misplaced Pages is not censored and "disgusting" is a POV assessment of a low resolution non-graphic image the use of which does not violate usage.

  • Delete Fails WP:NFCC8 - not necessary to understand artilce. Calliopejen1 (talk) 15:33, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - this article documents a murder and shooting spree. Of course some visual evidence of what happened significantly increases a reader's understanding (that is the required standard, not whether it is "necessary to understand" - let's not let Calliopejen push the boundaries here). It passes NFCC#8 for this reason. I call upon the closing moderator to assume good faith and let us fix the rationale if it is not sufficient, but there is a good case for significant understanding if visual evidence of a crime is established by the photos in the article. Furthermore, Misplaced Pages is not censored and "disgusting" is not a valid reason for deletion. INTGAFW (talk) 21:35, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
    • Any good attorney will tell you INTGAFW, that a "Reasonable and Prudent" rule will win most arguments. The issue here is, does the displaying of dead bodies further the article, or diminish it to gory details? I could upload the photos of Whitman and his victims from the Cook Funeral home in Austin where most of the bodies were taken. However, I do not feel inclined to do so because some readers (or lookers), would take great offense to seeing the death stare, gaping mouths, positions they are in and damage done to some of the bodies.

    • Who mentioned anything about children exclusively!? But hey, you're right, in fact, we should upload a bunch of kiddie porn so people who are taking courses in Crime Classes and Deviant Behavior can see what it is all about!!! Is that what you are saying? Also, let's upload every concievable, abhorrent picture dealing with every murder case since the beginning of photography, so that people who are taking photo courses, can see how to angle and adjust the lens. Is that grown up enough for ya? I doubt it!Victor9876 (talk) 04:58, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
      • Your Straw man argument about uploading "kiddie porn" etc. is completely irrelevant and inappropriate, as is your attitude. Is Sherurcij correct that you have a personal stake or conflict of interest here? Your misguided passion seems to suggest as much. These family members you speak of reading Misplaced Pages articles about their loved ones' murders should expect some discomfort (anyway, the images are pretty poor, I can't even see definitive wounds or evidence that these people are dead). The argument for or against these images should be based on the threshhold set by WP:NFCC#8, not whether a handful of editors think they are "disgusting" or the potential for sensitive readers to come across them. I don't hear you complaining about the images at penis and vagina, which would surely make my grandma faint. — TAnthony 00:26, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete this unnecessary, undiscussed image. It is neither the subject of critical commentary per the NFC acceptable use guideline, nor is the specific subject of the image discussed in the article at all so as to have any understanding to increase (WP:NFCC#8). — pd_THOR | 21:47, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

    • Show the "Penis" and "Vagina" photos to your Grandmother, if she faints, that's a compelling argument! If you can't tell the people are dead, that's another argument against keeping them, they serve no purpose.Victor9876 (talk) 02:14, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
      • By all means, nominate the penis pics for deletion, perhaps those people can make my argument for me. The fact that you and my grandma are sensitive to a photo is completely irrelevant; those photos remain there because they are encyclopedic and violate no policy. I'm sorry if murky images of dead people make you squeamish, but perhaps then you shouldn't read articles about spree murderers.— TAnthony 02:26, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
        • I have no interest in penis or vagina pictures, that's your relevancy, you can argue that better than me, and according to your bio, totally in favor of the penis. If those photos are encyclopedic and violate no policy - why is everyone discussing it here? I didn't bring it up, I'm just participating in a discussion, while you vent your perfectionism.

  • Delete - Here is the entire quote that makes reference to the Time cover, "During her tour to Europe, Eva Perón was featured in a cover story for Time magazine. The cover's caption — "Eva Perón: Between two worlds, an Argentine rainbow" — was a reference to the name given to Eva's European tour, The Rainbow Tour. This would be the first and only time in the periodical's history that a South American first lady appeared alone on its cover (in 1951, Eva appeared again with Juan Perón). However, the 1947 cover story was also the first publication to mention that Eva had been born out of wedlock. In retaliation, the periodical was banned from Argentina for several months."

Keep.

The image reflects this featuring Alcide De Gasperi threatened by the Red (Communist) Octopus (the caption explaining this is apparently deleted deliberately - I restored it again). To say it is used "just to reinforce the information that the 1948 election was covered by the press", is incorrect and lacks understanding of the use of unique historic images.

I'm not sure what you are getting at with your question. We have articles which use low res scans of magazine covers to illustrate subjects. If an artist has depicted a subject for TIME (or any other magazine as far as that goes) and the same material is in a Misplaced Pages, and fair use rationale applies, then we use them. By your question and thinking - Shall all magazine photos be deleted from the project?? I'm not getting what your point is. JungleCat Shiny!/Oohhh! 17:37, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
That is his point. His aim is to have no non-free use images on Misplaced Pages and he'll make up any excuse to get rid of them, even if they're not valid reasons for deletion. INTGAFW (talk) 23:08, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
What Damiens.rf seems to be suggesting is that, by using the image essentially for the same purpose — graphically and evocatively depicting the perceived communist threat in the 1948 Italian general election — for which Time Magazine originally commissioned it, we may be using it to "replace the original market role" of the magazine cover, thereby violating NFCC 2. If true, this would also seem to imply a violation of NFCC 1, since it would be possible (even if not necessarily easy) for us to come up with our own original illustration of the same thing. Further up, he also seems to be suggesting that the image could be adequately replaced by plain text, which, if true, would make it a violation of NFCC 8.
Regarding NFCC 1 and 2, I would say the key question is whether we're using the image to illustrate the U.S. media's (and Time Magazine's in particular) reporting of the geopolitical situation surrounding the election, or whether we're using it to illustrate the situation itself. If the former, we're probably clear in this regard, since it's hard to show an example of U.S. media's reporting of the election without, well, showing an example of U.S. media's reporting of the election. If the latter, however, we indeed could and should replace the image with a free illustration (even if it might not be quite as evocative as Time's professionally designed one) and thus have no excuse to use an unfree one.
Alas, it's kind of hard to say, since the image seems to be slapped onto both articles with very little in the way of text connecting it to the actual content. Italian general election, 1948 does mention Time Magazine, but in a completely different section than the image is used in. Alcide De Gasperi makes no mention of Time at all (outside the image's caption); it does say, in the paragraph the image appears to be illustrating, that "the US became alarmed about Soviet intentions", but makes no direct mention of the media's reporting as either a cause or a symptom of this alarm.
That said, it may not matter much, since I have to agree with Damiens that the image appears to fail NFCC 8. Not only does the lack of discussion of the image in the text of the articles strongly suggest that its main purpose is merely decorative, but in any case, there's nothing factual in the image that would not be conveyed just as well by the simple words "Time Magazine, in its cover on 19 April, 1948, depicted De Gasperi with a red octopus (the color symbolising communism) extending its tentacles around a map of Italy." We don't need the cover itself to show De Gasperi's face (and in any case we're not allowed to use magazine covers for that). As for the octopus and the map of Italy, neither are particularly remarkably drawn — there's nothing that would distinguish them from any other drawing matching the same textual description, or indeed from the image that any reader could easily imagine in their head based on the text alone. Thus I'd have to say this image is not essential to the articles, and should be deleted. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 04:16, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
Our own original illustration? You must be joking. There is no own original illustration, and certainly not one that figured prominently on the cover of Time. The fact that it was on the Time cover makes it an unique historical image, illustrating the fears that existed at the time. You just gave an excellent reason why the image should be kept, thank you very much.
Time Magazine has made the covers freely available on their website, we do not violate NFCC 2. On the contrary, I think they are quite happy to see the cover in Misplaced Pages. They seem to understand the unique historical role their magazine played at times.
Right - there is no other image that is "quite as evocative as Time's professionally designed one", another reason why it should be kept.
With regard to the article not mentioning Time Magazine, you might have a point there, but I will take care of that, when I have the time.
The image is not used to show De Gasperi's face, another image already takes care of that, so why bring this into the discussion? That you think the drawing is not remarkable is your personal opinion and violates WP:NPOV. Separating arguments about the drawing and De Gasperi's face is a non-issue. The image is remarkable and historically significant because of the combination of the two - that is exactly the reason why it is there. Frankly, I only see some bogus bureaucratic arguments here, while ignoring the overriding general principle that this is an unique historic image, which enhances the readers understanding on the issue and the historical importance of De Gasperi. - Mafia Expert (talk) 09:43, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

  • Non-free picture used to illustrate the article of a living football player and to decorate the article on a politician. Damiens.rf 17:16, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
    • This is an image showing what a prominent politician looked like as a professional football player 45 years ago. The politician is very prominent as was his athletic career. This image depicts very prominent athletic career. No replacement is available. Image also used on second biography.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 17:21, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - non-replaceable image depicting the politician as a football player. Not just used for decoration but to illustrate the football career. If it were an early political picture perhaps a case could be made for deletion but here it is not. INTGAFW (talk) 23:10, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

  • A good portion of the important part of the image is cut off, and there is little encyclopaedic value for an image that doesn't show the reader half of what it's supposed to show them. Should be replaced with a better scan of the original image. —Politizer /contribs 23:06, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Is indeed self-promotion, but by an important composer. It's nice of him to put some of his (expensive?) pictures up here (even though his edits of the article on himself do not suggest he is completely aware of how Misplaced Pages works). I've put this image (Ewcolor) into the article, because it looks the least glossy to me. The article didn't have a picture yet, which is why all three Whitacre pictures were orphans. As far as I'm concerned, the others can be deleted. Classical geographer (talk) 08:53, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
