• AP photo: not a transformative use, fails WP:NFCC2 Calliopejen1 (talk) 00:15, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Rationale is exceptionally weak. But mainly, the image is used to generally depict the clashes, and this image itself is not of particular interest. There's nothing historically significant about it such that we must violate AP's copyright, nor is the reader's understanding of the subject in any way enhanced by the image. The text already notes there was a clash. --Hammersoft (talk) 15:34, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. We have plenty of substitutes over at Wikimedia Commons that depicts the scale of the political crisis. Nobody prominently died from that incident to justify its own article. I don't see how it strongly justifies NFCC. - Mailer Diablo 09:20, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image:S Korolyov.jpg (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by Tavrian (notify | contribs).

• According to the source, this photo was taken at Kapustin Yar, a secret Soviet rocket launch and development site. It is highly unlikely that this work was created by a US federal emplyee in 1953. The source (NASA) credits Asif Siddiqi and his book Challenge to Apollo, something which further indicates that the photo is not created by NASA (and thus isn't ((PD-USGov))) Kjetil r (talk) 00:47, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Retag Given that he's dead, I think it's reasonable to use fair use in this case. It's clear the image is tagged improperly. NASA didn't even exist at the time this image was taken (it was established in 1958). Given the highly secretive nature of ballistic missiles and satellite programs, the notion that this is a work of the US government is fatally flawed. I think we can dispense with the claim that this is a public domain image, and go with fair use. Note that there might still be a claim to this image being freely licensed due to unusual copyright law from the CCCP collapse and subsequent Russian Federation. I'm no expert on that. Regardless, given the lack of free alternatives for depicting this person(Image:Korolyov in cockpit.jpg doesn't depict even his whole face), I think this is acceptable fair use. --Hammersoft (talk) 15:42, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

We have many free alternatives, see commons:Category:Sergei Korolyov. --Kjetil r (talk) 23:41, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Ah, right you are. Change my stance to delete. --Hammersoft (talk) 01:32, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep as uploader. The image violates no copyright and is property of the US government (regardless of what you conclude to be unlikely), which also takes credit for it. P.S. Pictures of stamps and statues are not "free alternatives". --Tavrian 01:53, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  How do you know that the image violates no copyright and is property of the US government? The NASA source credits a third party, who is not a US federal employee. You will have to get some evidence for the image's copyright status. And Image:Sergey Korolyov.jpg is not a stamp or a statue. --Kjetil r (talk) 02:37, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment if photograph was taken in the Soviet Union, are there any copyrights to be concerned with anyways? The USSR didn't have IP laws, thus everything should be PD. 76.66.195.159 (talk) 07:16, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  There were indeed IP laws in the Soviet Union. We used to have a Template:PD-USSR license tag, but it was deprecated two years ago. --Kjetil r (talk) 02:37, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

      • We can say the same thing about the first cover at the head of the infobox : it doesn't increase the understanding of the reader and the artwork is almost never discussed in the article, and yet it is allowed after all. This first image may be completely unknown to some readers who live in another region in which the item was released under a different cover. The alternate image is used to show this other artwork in order to help the reader to do the link between the cover and the subject of the article and therefore this doesn't fall under WP:NFCC#8. And as I previously said, the template ((Alternate cover)) exists for this reason and is currently active on WP. (Quotes from Template:Infobox Album/doc : If the album has been released with different album covers, they can be added to the infobox using this template. (...) For alternate covers the upper caption should be "Alternate cover" and the lower caption should mention where that cover was used (int'l release, re-release, censored original, etc.).)

  • Keep : This image passes NFCC#3a as released with different covers, and passes NFCC#8 for readers who have that cover that is very different from the original one. The template ((Alternate covers)) often added in an infobox exists precisely to show a cover when it is sufficiently different to warrant its inclusion in an article. Otherwise, this means that no alternate cover is allowed, as a cover or single album is always under WP:NFCC, and this template is obsolete. Europe22 (talk) 11:04, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete and ignore WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS arguments. So what if the infobox template asks for the images? It matters not. We don't have to have every blasted cover, of every release, of every album, of every single, of every demo copy that's ever been made of every blasted song in the universe. See Wikipedia:NFC#Images which states that mere identification is not enough. One single cover is plenty, and blast the trend to introduce as many covers as possible. --Hammersoft (talk) 15:46, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If mere identification is not enough, then we need to delete just about every single album/single/ep cover that is on wikipedia as the vast majority of them are not discussed in prose. --JD554 (talk) 15:57, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1/ WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not relevant here ; 2/ Yes, the mere identification is not enough, but the article also contains a critical analysis of the single (WP:NFC#Images : only in the context of critical commentary of that item). Europe22 (talk) 16:00, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• A Knight Who Says Ni is stating that the infobox asks for such images, therefore they are acceptable. That's an otherstuffexists argument. He is also stating the use is consistent with other articles. That too is an otherstuffexists argument. As to identification vs. commentary, if there was some discussion regarding the differences in the covers of the singles, there might be an argument to keep. As is, it's just used to illustrate the article. There's no critical commentary regarding the style, popularity, etc. of the single covers themselves. Fail. --Hammersoft (talk) 17:51, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Then as I said above you need to get rid of all album/single covers where there is no critical commentary of the album (the vast majority). I suggest you take this up at WPP:MUSIC, WP:ALBUMS, or WP:SONGS first though. --JD554 (talk) 20:54, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• This isn't an all or nothing proposal, and suggesting a sky is falling scenario isn't helpful to the discussion. We are discussing having multiple covers per item in question, and specifically in this case (though I think the wider subject of multiple covers needs to be addressed in a wider forum than this). --Hammersoft (talk) 21:15, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Fair enough, then these images should stay as they still comply with NFCC#8 which doesn't say anything about the images being discussed in the prose, they simply need to aid the readers understanding, which they do as they are the covers of the singles and give immediate and quick identification which is difficult to achieve by prose alone. --JD554 (talk) 22:41, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete (and Comment). I can't see why this has a page at all - it doesn't seem notable enough for a song. It appears to have not been a hit in any English-speaking country, fine for foreign-language Wikipedias, but not here. I would also suggest that the endless list of where it appears on different albums is pointless in the extreme - this should only be done for the most notable of albums. I know this isn't the discussion, but this page is too much as it is. It needs a good clean and tightening up to something more befitting an encyclopedic article.--Tuzapicabit (talk) 16:53, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment : The song passes WP:NM as it has "been ranked on national or significant music charts" (no need to be charted in English-countries). In addition, sources establish notability. Europe22 (talk) 17:07, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: Image passes NFCC#3a. Text in article relates: "California" was also released in Germany with a new white cover. Regarding the various remixes, they are the result of collaboration between Laurent Boutonnat / Bertrand Châtenet ('LAPD remix' and 'wandering club mix'), and various American DJs : Niki Gasolino & Peter Parker, Nils Ruzicka, and Ramon Zenker.^[1] which further explains what the 'Mixes' 'sticker' on the cover is about.--Alf ^melmac 12:26, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Non-free images should only be used to convey information that words (or a free alternative) can not express, or be accompanied by critical commentary. "...was also released in Germany with a new white cover" is not developed enough to justify a non-free image in a free encyclopedia. It might be different if the covers were actually discussed (photographer, where they were photographed, etc.) using reliable sources. The covers do not identify the subject. A sound clip, however, would. The JPS^{talk to me} 12:11, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Surely a cover identifies the subject visually. Something a sound clip obviously can't do. --JD554 (talk) 12:51, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

mmm, but the subject is the song, not the cover. The JPS^{talk to me} 21:37, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is. But if you walk in to a record shop, how do you identify the song you want to buy? --JD554 (talk) 05:58, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

By name! You are not completely oblivious when you wander into a store unless you see a picture. Why do you want to buy a song? Because you've heard it on the radio? Because you like the artist? Chances are the potential buyer hasn't a clue what the cover looks like until they see it in a shop. A picture of x on the cover helps identify the subject in a shop within that temporal context, but that is saying little about the song. This is why iTunes has a preview facility -- a sound clip helps you identify the song.
A particular image(s) would have been chosen for that specific song, and such discussions are interesting, but only when accompanied by reliable sources.
This argument could actually be used to remove any cover without a critical commentary. I wouldn't want to pursue that extreme, but we need to cut down on excessive non-free images: remember the pillars! The JPS^{talk to me} 08:41, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

One of which is Wikipedia has a neutral point of view. If you are only going to allow a single cover for identification from one region it would be POV-pushing and introducing systemic bias. I have yet to be convinced of the argument that covers from different regions is "excessive". --JD554 (talk) 11:00, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I see what you mean. Perhaps there should be a rule that priority is given to the country of first release, or home country of artist. Otherwise it could get very silly if someone tried adding every alternate cover. The JPS^{talk to me} 16:57, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

←Luckily there's usually only 2 or 3 at the most or, if there are more, they aren't different enough. But I suppose there is potential for it to be taken to an extreme. One to be brought up at WP:MUSIC perhaps? --JD554 (talk) 10:35, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep : This is an encyclopedia. An encyclopedia lists all content about a subject. Since some people will know the album only by the alternate cover, there is no reason to delete it as that viewer would look at the main cover and say, "That's not the one I'm looking for" to then come across the second one and say, "Ah, that's the album/single I have."CycloneGU (talk) 06:27, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is no argument below, nor on the image page, about how this image significantly increases reader's understanding and there is no sourced commentary in the article about the image itself - it is simply there as a decorative element. That the image identifies its subject is not relevant as all images do this. I refer editor's to the JPS's argument below and in the previous IfD — sourced commentary about the image itself is often what is required to make the image significant for reader's understanding - Peripitus (Talk) 22:34, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• I feel that this image fails WP:NFCC#3a as multiple non-free images of the CD cover are used when one will suffice, and additionally or alternatively fails WP:NFCC#8 as the image does not add significantly to readers' understanding of the topic and its omission wouldn't be detrimental to that understanding.

  • Keep: Passes NFCC#3a as one image won't suffice if the release has been issued with more than one cover. Passes NFCC#8 as identifies the topic of the article to whoever has the version with that particular cover. --JD554 (talk) 10:59, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep : This image passes NFCC#3a as released with different covers, and passes NFCC#8 for readers who have that cover that is very different from the original one. The template ((Alternate covers)) often added in an infobox exists precisely to show a cover when it is sufficiently different to warrant its inclusion in an article. Otherwise, this means that no alternate cover is allowed, as a cover or single album is always under WP:NFCC, and this template is obsolete. Europe22 (talk) 11:05, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Perhaps the template should be obsolete. Stifle (talk) 13:58, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • Please, can you provide a relevant sentence into WP:GUIDELINE that could support this claim ? There is nothing on Template:Extra album cover 2 that indicates this. WP:SONGS states : "Misc This field allows you to provide additional infobox data (additional chronologies using ((Extra chronology 2)) or ((Extra album cover 2)) for example)". Therefore, another image in the infobox does not violate WP:GUIDELINE. It is also possible to think that removing a second image -- although it is very different from the first one -- is not appropriate either. Europe22 (talk) 14:40, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete and ignore WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS arguments. So what if the infobox template asks for the images? It matters not. We don't have to have every blasted cover, of every release, of every album, of every single, of every demo copy that's ever been made of every blasted song in the universe. See Wikipedia:NFC#Images which states that mere identification is not enough. One single cover is plenty, and blast the trend to introduce as many covers as possible. --Hammersoft (talk) 15:47, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If mere identification is not enough, then we need to delete just about every single album/single/ep cover that is on wikipedia as the vast majority of them are not discussed in prose. --JD554 (talk) 15:57, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1/ WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not relevant here ; 2/ Yes, the mere identification is not enough, but the article also contains a critical analysis of the single (WP:NFC#Images : only in the context of critical commentary of that item). Europe22 (talk) 15:59, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Image passes NFCC#3a - text of article has "Among the different media for this single, there was a CD single distributed in a limited triptych digipack edition, and a CD maxi containing 6 titles - this one is the only CD maxi in Farmer's career still for sale because, given the number of tracks, it is referenced by Universal as a "mini-album" and is re-edited." putting those releases into context, does help identify what is what out of the releases.--Alf ^melmac 12:33, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Per my comments in the above IFD. Agree with Stifle that perhaps the template should be obsolete. (Let me know if you nominate it.) In the meantime, we're discussing this image. As there is no substantial discussion of the non-free image, and it conveys no additional information to the article, delete. The JPS^{talk to me} 08:49, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep : My comments for this are the same as the other considered deletion candidate for this single.CycloneGU (talk) 06:29, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: NFCC#8 doesn't talk about identifying the topic of the article. How does it help a user to understand the article better by seeing more versions of the album cover? (Nobody has yet addressed this point.) Stifle (talk) 09:37, 20 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • We can say the same thing about the first cover at the head of the infobox : it doesn't increase the understanding of the reader and the artwork is almost never discussed in the article, and yet it is allowed after all. This first image may be completely unknown to some readers who live in another region in which the item was released under a different cover. The alternate image is used to show this other artwork in order to help the reader to do the link between the cover and the subject of the article and therefore this doesn't fall under WP:NFCC#8. And as I previously said, the template ((Alternate cover)) exists for this reason and is currently active on WP. (Quotes from Template:Infobox Album/doc : If the album has been released with different album covers, they can be added to the infobox using this template. (...) For alternate covers the upper caption should be "Alternate cover" and the lower caption should mention where that cover was used (int'l release, re-release, censored original, etc.).)

• I feel that this image fails WP:NFCC#3a as multiple non-free images of the CD cover are used when one will suffice, and additionally or alternatively fails WP:NFCC#8 as the image does not add significantly to readers' understanding of the topic and its omission wouldn't be detrimental to that understanding. Stifle (talk) 09:36, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep.

1/This image doesn't fall under WP:NFCC#3a because the other image has been removed.

2/I think that this is a misinterpretation of WP:NFCC#8. In an article about a single, it is normal that there is a screenshot of the music video, since it is an important part of the topic. Moreover, it is precided on the template ((Non-free music video screenshot)) : [a screenshot can be used] "for identification (1) and critical commentary (2) on the music video in question." So a screenshot seems acceptable because (1) in all case it identifies the subject, and (2) if it is the subject of a commentary in the article.

WP:NFCC#8 states : "Significance. Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." What we regard as "detrimental" is obviously very subjective. If it is assumed that all that exists can be described with words (which is even the case for ideas), then no screenshot is essential, and this implicitely means : "Screenshots of music video are not allowed on WP". But we must admit that image has much more impact on the reader that words. So, from the moment the video is the subject of a sourced discussion in an article, it seems quite natural to add a screenshot to support the text, and this does not fall under WP:NFCC#8.

By the way, a single or album cover is also non-free content. However, it is accepted, as it is essential to "identify the subject", although it is rarely discussed (indeed, never discussed, nor even mentioned) in the article in which it is.

Lastly, according to Section 107 of the United States Copyright Act of 1976: "The fair use of a copyrighted work...for purposes such as criticism, comment,...scholarship...is not an infringement of copyright."   http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/ts_search.pl?title=17&sec=107 - Europe22 (talk) 11:01, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Copyright Act is not relevant to us as WP fair use policy is considerably stricter than US law. Stifle (talk) 11:38, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete The screenshot adds nothing to the article. The article fails to discuss this particular image. The image only generally illustrates the video. There's nothing lost to the reader by this image being deleted. Fail. --Hammersoft (talk) 15:50, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: - Delete - Fails WP:NFCC#8 and NFCC#3a.

In this, and the preceeding, Ifd discussions there is evidently a lack of understanding about what is required to meet NFCC#8. If in the article there was sourced commentary of the type of "On the maxi CD cover, artist xxxx did xxxx which he said xxxx" then the image would be necessary for the text to make sense.

The result of the discussion was: delete. The image fails WP:NFCC#1 and #8. They is no sourced information in the Ida Lupino article that supports that Lupino, early in her career, was positioned as a desirable sex object. Using the image in One Rainy Afternoon merely shows a cast member of the film beside the list of cast members. The free image of Francis Lederer is just as significant. -Nv8200p talk 18:35, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep The image is in use in two articles. In the biography of Ida Lupino, it serves to show that Lupino's career went through distinct phases. The available free images show her in her mature state as an actress, and as a director, but neither gives any indication that Lupino, early in her career, was positioned as a desireable sex object. This would in no respect be apparent from the free images, so the current image is valuable in shedding additional light on another aspect of her career.

  As for the article One Rainy Afternoon, unfortunately there were not any images available that I could find, free or otherwise, to illustrate this page, and the publicity picture of Lupino was the best available image that could be found. I'd have absolutely no objection to removing this image from that article if another more specific one could be located (free or otherwise), but in the meantime, this at least serves to present to the reader the general look of Ms. Lupino at that period.

The result of the discussion was: delete. Fails WP:NFCC#8 in Fast and Loose (film) and WP:NFCC#1 in Miriam Hopkins. Having an image of a cast member beside the cast list does not make the image significant. Freedom trumps quality for images. -Nv8200p talk 18:48, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• 1) One free image have been included in the article Miriam Hopkins. Quality is not relevant. Image:MiriamHopkinsinBeckySharp.jpg is acceptable quality. We simply don't use an non-free image when a free one will suffice. Purpose is to show what she looked like. 2) Also this image is not publicity photo for Fast and Loose (film). Source: [1] -- Britneysaints (talk) 12:38, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - To say "quality is not relevant" is rather silly -- after all, what are we here for except to engage in the creation of a quality encyclopedia? If the articles in WP were all as crappy as the available free image of Miriam Hopkins, no one would be turning to this project as a source of information. Instead, it is the relentless drive to improve the quality of the articles, overall, which has placed Wikipedia in the position it is in today as the source of first choice for quick and accurate information. These articles deserve the best illustrations available, and there comes a point where ideology must give way to practicality and the quest for excellence.

  Again, if another free image was to be found that was of comparable -- or even somewhat inferior -- quality to the non-free image in question, I'd have no problem replacing it, but to make the reader suffer with an extremely poor picture when another is available that is legally and morally usable and is of overwhelming superior quality, seems a great disservice to the people we are supposed to be serving.

• coypright holder not attributed, fails WP:NFCC10 Calliopejen1 (talk) 15:41, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, now tagged with ((nsd)) --Hammersoft (talk) 15:59, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. The copyright holder need not be attributed as it is tagged fair use with a non-free historic image tag. This tag states: "the copyright for it is most likely held by the person who took the image or the agency employing the person." The source provided, from a newspaper clipping, is clearly shown. Hence there is source information. Chesdovi (talk) 21:41, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• The problem with that line of reasoning is that there's no way to verify the copyright status of the image. That's crucial to our fair use acceptance policy under which this image is challenged. Just citing this blog as the source, which uses clippings from an unnamed newspaper, is grossly insufficient. We must have the newspaper this came from, preferably what date it was printed, and if the image is copyright to someone other than the newspaper, we need that information too. This information is all lacking. Without it, the image must go. --Hammersoft (talk) 22:28, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Wikipedia:Citing sources#When uploading an image states: "Images must include source details and a copyright tag on the image description page. It is important that you list the author of the image if known (especially if different from the source), which is important both for copyright and for informational purposes. If you download an image from the web, you should give the URL: Source: Downloaded from http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4280841.stm"

Clearly if the author is not known, it is not a reason to disqualify. The image was downloaded from the web and the URL is given. What more is needed in this instance where it is practically impossible to determine who took this photo? Chesdovi (talk) 01:40, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• The problem here is we have no idea who the original source is. This is no different than grabbing an image from a random website and saying you found it on the web somewhere. We don't know the author and we don't know the source. We haven't the faintest idea what the status of this image really is and no way to confirm its status. That makes it wholly unacceptable. --Hammersoft (talk) 14:34, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
