Image:WaPo Bubble Bench.png (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by Frothy (notify | contribs).

There's a huge rationale written for this non-free image, but it still fails to explain how we're not competing with (at least) washington post's website by copying their image to ours (WP:NFCC#2), and why is this image necessary understanding that there was "a large number of unsold condominiums during the bubble" WP:NFCC#8 (it's surely a good illustration, but hardly something that passes the "minimal use" requirement. Damiens.rf 19:11, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If the bench is still there, this image is replaceable. Since it's a recent article, I'd wager that's true. Delete. Cumulus Clouds (talk) 20:24, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Beautiful image copied from new source Washington Post Damiens.rf 19:20, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Now when you say "copied", presumably you mean to say "properly cited and attributed with a Fair use rationale". Palm_Dogg (talk) 20:40, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  - Or maybe an "unfair use rationale". --Damiens.rf 23:10, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    - OK, I'll bite. How is it unfair? What do I need to do to fix it? Palm_Dogg (talk) 09:20, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      - It's unfair because we're using their work for free to compete with them. To "fix it", we should stop using this photo as soon as possible (since paying a license fee is not an option for Wikimedia Foundation). --Damiens.rf 16:19, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        Let me rephrase: was there a policy change where Wikipedia no longer uses any PD pictures and I just didn't get the memo? Palm_Dogg (talk) 03:00, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        The policy, as far as I'm aware, is that we only use PD or freely licensed images (ie, GFDL, CC-BY, etc). Exceptions must fulfill all then criteria set by WP:NFCC (in short, the image must irreplaceably necessary for the understanding of the article and still have a strong fair use case). This image, for instance, fails criterion #2 set by NFCC. --Damiens.rf 05:38, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Geoeye's licensing is actually non-commercial and non-derivs. Damiens.rf 19:26, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- there are a number of lines in the licensing terms that seem to contradict its free-ish initial sentence. For example: "Imagery may not be sold, distributed, or reproduced in any form without express permission from GeoEye." and also, "Any other use of materials—including resale, distribution, or reproduction, or for purposes other than as noted above—without the prior written permission of GeoEye is strictly prohibited." A free-er alternative source must be found for this sort of material. -Seidenstud (talk) 15:30, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This image from associated press is not necessary for understanding the article. Damiens.rf 19:28, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely strongest keep - This has come up again and again and it has been decided each time that this photo is irreplaceable (it is), and that it is crucial to a complete understanding of this topic. Badagnani (talk) 19:32, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- How does this being irreplaceable give us the right to ignore associated press copyrights and commercial interests? What's a possible fair use claim for taking an image associated press licenses to it customers and use it for free? --Damiens.rf 19:36, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Not to say that fact that you repeatedly removed the deletion tags doesn't make it irreplaceable. --Damiens.rf 19:40, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Nonfree image of a living person. Cumulus Clouds (talk) 20:21, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - If the image serves to identify then subject then it is obviously replaceable. If it serves to illustrate that the subject cried on TV, then it can be adequately replaced with text saying so. CIreland (talk) 11:28, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Huge and verbose rationale fails to explain why is the image necessary (and not just useful) for the understanding of the article, and how aren't we competing with news source that produced this image by freely copying it to articles about the event captured.
