KEEP Book is specifically mentioned as one of the illustrator's most published books, at several million copies. Cover shows illustrator's work as critically discussed in the accompanying text. As the only cover shown it easily passes both WP:NFC#Images #1 and WP:NFCC#3.--Knulclunk (talk) 14:34, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. It is true that the article mentions this book, but it is not clear that this image "significantly increase[s] readers' understanding of the topic" (remember that the topic is the author, not the book), and its removal would not be "detrimental to that understanding," so the current use of this image in the article for the author fails WP:NFCC#8. —Bkell (talk) 14:40, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Cover also show the author's signature logo, used on all her publications. As the book would not have its own article, it is appropriate to have the cover here, where her artistic style, subject matter and publications are discussed in the adjacent critical commentary.--Knulclunk (talk) 15:03, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That doesn't make sense at all. If the logo is used on the cover of her books, why would we want to remove it from context?--Knulclunk (talk) 15:39, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please see WP:NFCC#3b. —Bkell (talk) 16:05, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It's not JUST the signature. It's the signature as icon on the cover of the author's books, showing an example of her work, as described in the text, and on the cover of her second most popular book; still in print. --Knulclunk (talk) 22:39, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Including the actual stamp image unquestionably displays the information in a more accessible way. It's almost impossible to argue that the point is not made 'better and more effectively' by including the image. The article is improved. The reader's understanding of Pando's wider recognition is improved by seeing the image. This article is not an area of major research for most readers, and making the information accessible by a quick skimming of the article enhances the value of the article considerably.

I gather that you're not a visual person? Perhaps not a sighted person? If not, I can't really explain the difference between a drawing and a photo to you, nor the emotional impact difference between having a photo and a postage stamp made from the photo. But there is one. If you had a postage stamp made of you (for example), and everyone you knew assured you they'd done a GREAT job from a photo of you (one that was well-known to you), you'd still want to see it. If people refused to let you see it your own stamp, and claimed it would add nothing for you to see it, and that they could just describe it over the phone, you'd think them insane.SBHarris 22:35, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Heh, you should check people's userpages before saying something about them personally - it's unlikely that a non-"visual person" would have uploaded 7,000 self-made photos to Commons! I love images, they're great, but by the rules of the game we're playing, we can't use non-free images just because we like them. If the stamp were PD, we wouldn't be having any of this discussion. Stan (talk) 14:38, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The stamp is fair use. The only people arguing that it isn't, are those that say they get nothing from it. But that's their problem, not mine. The Post Office throught it added to the understanding of the subject to use his image. It is thus not only a valid point of view, but one held by the government agency which holds the copyright. SBHarris 02:25, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
If your only problem is that there's no sourced text that discusses the stamp, that can be fixed. SBHarris 02:26, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Except that we don't invent reasons to keep non-free images, we keep them if they significantly add to reader's understanding - Peripitus (Talk) 04:29, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Which means that your first reason was specious, I suppose. It does increase my understanding. You're assuming you represent the average reader and I don't. But if we asked the average reader of the Steinbeck bio if they'd like to see the image of the actual 15-cent Steinbeck US postage stamp (which hardly any will have) most would say "yes." Now, why would that be? SBHarris 04:59, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe they like the pretty pictures? Can you give a specific example of the "understanding" that is "increased" by this image? I can give you specific points for many other stamps - they depict elements from a particular school of art, the Postal Service made specific changes from the original photos (like airbrushing out a ciggie), etc. What does this stamp have?

KEEP WP:NFC#Images #3 means that the copyrighted image can't be used to illustrate what a yellow rose looks like, when a free photograph or illustration of a yellow rose may exist. Here, the image is being used to represent the stamp itself which the illustrated designed for the USPS. WP:NFC#Images #3 does not apply.
The stamp's use is important as it was hugely circulated, the most common stamp of it's era, as the corresponding text also mentions. An illustration that is immediately recognizable in a way that a verbose description can not be. Passes WP:NFCC#8. The existing freely licensed image has no bearing in the inclusion of this image. Passes WP:NFCC#3.--Knulclunk (talk) 14:59, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I think you're confusing WP:NFCC#3 with WP:NFCC#1. You also haven't explained why the use of this image meets WP:NFCC#8; "immediately recognizable" is not the same as "would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic." —Bkell (talk) 16:10, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Because the image would have to be replaced with the following text:
"The recognizable 1997 stamp featured a single yellow rose over white. Fujikawa's illustration shows the blossom large with three green leaves beneath. The rose's stem is shown as having thorns and additional green leaves peek out from the bottom of the frame. The stem itself bends gently to the left to compositionally leave room for the stamp's denomination on the upper right corner. The blossom is rendered in two simple tones, a flat yellow and a mid-orange for the darker areas. The leaves are also rendered in a limited palette, being a simple range of low saturated greens. The materials are handled in a way similar to much of Fujikawa's color work, blocks of similarly saturated hue with variations of brightness for shading. The rendering of the rose itself, however, is more realistic than much of her popular children's illustration and resembles more her other work for the U.S. Post Office. A viewer can see influences from both traditional western scientific flora illustration as well as simple, elegant eastern design motifs."
"The stamp itself is a nearly square portrait layout and printed with a four-color CMYK process. Sold in rolls, the stamps were even along the top, but separated with a curvy cut that resembled an old-fashioned perforation. The self-adhesive stamps had a backing paper that would be discarded. The stamps were printed with a denomination of 32 cents, the cost of mailing a first class letter in 1997. The denomination was printed in black and read "USA 32" in a serif font."
"The stamp would was widely circulated at the time and would be instantly familiar to anyone who used the U.S. Postal system in the late 1990's."


But then it would have to be Wiki-formatted:
"The recognizable[original research?] 1997 stamp featured a single yellow rose over white. Fujikawa's illustration shows the blossom large[original research?] with three green leaves beneath. The rose's stem is shown as having thorns and additional green leaves peek out from the bottom of the frame.

But that would be silly, since the article is about her work and not the stamp. So lets show her work, as we do for every illustrator, artist and musician.--Knulclunk (talk) 18:07, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Indeed that would be silly, not for the reasons you imply, but because you would not be adding any critical commentary about the stamp itself. All you are doing is describing the stamp in very great detail. You already illustrate a freely licenced stamp by this artist, so any use of this non-free image must specifically show why this stamp itself is notable with some reliable sources AND must pass all 10 criteria which it does not do. A long-winded description of the stamp is totally unnecessary but perhaps some sourced prose about the cultural impact, or something similar, would possibly allow its use and be justified within the fair-use rationale. Good luck, but just sticking a non-free stamp in is unjustified. As a philatelist I don't want to remove stamps without justification but there are, even still, too many blatant misuses of non-free stamps and they need to be removed. Any stamp with a good fair-use rationale will likely stay but in this case you have the additional problem of the already existing free stamp image. Are there any other freely licenced stamps by this designer? ww2censor (talk) 19:02, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, that wasn't particularly long winded, just a brief overview of what a casual viewer would glean from the image. The free stamp, though lovely, is atypical of the artist's style and much less common.--Knulclunk (talk) 19:59, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the other stamp...I'll go ahead and clean it up. I still think the yellow rose is important, but I suppose we'll just be covering it with text. sigh--Knulclunk (talk) 22:40, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How is the image non-free? It's licensed GDFL/CC-BY-SA-3.0. - Gump Stump (talk) 20:32, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The image I hand drew and uploaded should be perfectly acceptable to wiki. I only drew it because all the other versions I've seen are copyrighted... including the new one you want to replace mine with. I would love for there to be a better pic but it needs to be hand drawn and not simply a recreation of a protected image. Fyunck(click) (talk) 08:53, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have been through this before with this stamp; frankly I am getting just a bit tired of all of this.
Let me reiterate what was said the last time this topic came up: The stamp is mentioned in the body of the article as it was a signal honour for Beltran to be recognised by her government as one of the singular figures in the history of popular Mexican music; sans stamp, the body of the article would possibly need to be re-written to exclude mention of same, since the reader might need the illustration of the stamp as a point of reference-years of teaching has taught me that not all of us visualise in quite the same way. However, that is simply the opinion of an old and (probably) obsolete teacher. I do not wish to seem petulant, however this is not the first time I have had to defend my uploading of this image, and I have more pressing matters that need my attention.
I herewith wash my hands of this matter; do as you wish.--Lyricmac (talk) 17:20, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete"to illustrate person mentioned in article", as given in the fair use rationale, isn't a valid reason for having a nonfree image. Nyttend (talk) 19:55, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
