Image:Shot-01-022.jpg (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by KALA654 (notify | contribs).

• Unfree photo of a living person. Was already marked as rfu, somebody removed the tag and added a fair use rationale which is not consistent with Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. (It is entirely possible to create a free replacement, M.I.A. is giving lots of concerts and there are already photos of her on Commons. — High on a tree 05:18, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Fair use screen cap for living actor, replaceable with free use, adds nothing encyclopedic to page — Ejfetters 06:26, 6 August 2007 (UTC).

Image:EurekaFlag602.png (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by Pengo (notify | contribs).

• A vector version of this image is also available OsamaK 07:51, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep above reason is not a valid reason to delete. Vector is based on PNG, so keep original for reference. —Pengo 08:05, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Flag should be SVG. So SVG is enough.--OsamaK 10:54, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as per Pengo --Knulclunk 16:00, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. SVG is the best for flags and they should be SVG. and why "for reference" we can see "PNG version was Image:EurekaFlag602.png" That's enough ;). DELETE. --OsamaK 13:46, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Earthlights_dmsp_small.jpg (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by Dcoetzee (notify | contribs).

• Unused, Image:Earthlights dmsp.jpg is enough. OsamaK 10:52, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• I originally uploaded it because the original image had poor contrast (I don't know why I resized it), but evidently the authors of the article using it chose to remove it, so whatever. Dcoetzee 11:36, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - orphan, the big one is fine. ALTON .ıl 02:10, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• User claims to have created himself and releases it as such, but the image is merely 2 copyrighted promo images with no source, copyright status, or fair use rationale. Apparent copyright vio. — Ejfetters 10:58, 6 August 2007 (UTC).

• Delete - for reasons above. ALTON .ıl 02:02, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Whitney-bobby.jpg (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by The Real One Returns (notify | contribs).

• Tagged as PD, but is almost certainly not - uploader wrote "Personal scan" as a source, quite obviously a personal scan of a commercial immage. Fair use should not apply, as we have other photos of both individuals. —  _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk}  11:00, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - for above reasons. ALTON .ıl 02:14, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - From how it's placed in the articles, it simply enhances the accompanying text. Jtpop 06:45, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Jtpop, the use of fair use images should be such, that without them a reader's understanding of the article text would be impaired. Simple illustration is not a valid excuse for fair use. Anrie 08:22, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Non-free, NFCC #1, etc. Jheald 10:37, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:WikiFunctions2.png (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by Kingboyk (notify | contribs).

• No enough info, I think that's .NET. it copyright. OsamaK 11:48, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Its a object diagram of components of User:kingboyks Wikifunctions 2. This has now all been merged into WikiFunctions.dll. It is not copyright to MS or anyone, as the components are those of kingboyk's, but it may be an un-needed image due to the merge. Reedy Boy 12:13, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. It incorporates GUI design from Microsoft Visual Studio, unless someone can convince me that those icons and stuff are not copyrighted. howcheng {chat} 16:49, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Mirusuvil_victims_burial.jpeg (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by Taprobanus (notify | contribs).

• Unnecessary non-free image showing a burial site of the exhumed bodies, used to illustrate the information that such site existed. It doens't help on the reader's understanding of the article in a way that words alone can not. Abu badali ^(talk) 14:24, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Because in this massacre and mass grave case, the alleged perpetrators denied ever commiting these crimes. The fact that the bodies were found and reburied illustrates the finality of the massacre and the subsequant mass grave although the court case still pending as is usual in Sri Lanka. Thanks Taprobanus 20:56, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, a picture is worth a thousand words. I fail to see how you could replace all the little details in an image efficiently with text. Mathmo ^Talk 22:39, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • luckily, we don't have to. As not every "little detail" on this image contains encyclopedic information. --Abu badali ^(talk) 13:01, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • I wish I'd stop seeing encyclopedic being misused so often on wikipedia, did you know that half the results on google for encyclopedic are to do with wikipedia? Anyway, getting back on track.... encyclopedic is defined as "comprehensive" also "broad in scope or content". If anything, this seems to be the opposite of what you were trying to say. Because you were wishing to instead narrow down the scope and content of the article, making it less comprehensive. Mathmo ^Talk 20:49, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • You may want to propose the removal of the term "encyclopedic" from our policy. --Abu badali ^(talk) 23:04, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as per Mathmo Harlowraman 00:00, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. We don't need to see a picture of a grave to understand that one exists. And if it's still there, then this is a replaceable non-free image. howcheng {chat} 18:05, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Image deleted. Does not add significantly to the article and is replaceable with a free image. -Nv8200p talk 02:15, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Chrd_with_mirusuvil_victims.jpeg (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by Taprobanus (notify | contribs).

• Unnecessary non-free image showing some people meeting, used to show "the reaction ofthe civil society of Sri lanka" towards a massacre. It's not necessary for the understanding of the topic. Abu badali ^(talk) 14:26, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Because the image illustrates the civic society's role including buddhist monks (apparently belonging to the majority Sinhalese ethnic group) being involved in assuring the case was heard and the victims compensated. Considering the conflict is between the majority Sinhalese and minority Tamils, it is an impartant picture. Thanks Taprobanus 20:53, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as per Taprobanus Harlowraman 00:00, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. It's a useful image, but not a necessary one. The idea that Buddhist monks were involved in the effort is adequately explained via text. howcheng {chat} 18:08, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Used in multiple user boxes. No reason to delete. --Knulclunk 16:04, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• We can replace it with text in all user boxes. that's easy in HTML.--OsamaK 18:26, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm bad in HTML ;), but what do you think about this--OsamaK 18:31, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
