File:NewYorkTimesFrontPage-15Nov2012.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Werldwayd (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 
File was being used for primary identification purposes in the main infobox of The New York Times, but was replaced with the free image File:New York Times, May 24, 2020 cover.jpg. This made the non-free file orphaned; so it was tagged for speedy deletion per WP:F5. The uploader saw the tagging and re-added the file to The New York Times#Digital era, which de-orphaned the file, but created quite a few other WP:NFCCP issues that now need to be resolved.
Using a non-free file for primary identification purposes at the top or in the main infobox is a different from using the same file within the body of the article and requires a completely different type of justification per WP:NFCC#1, WP:NFCC#3a and WP:NFCC#8. There's not sourced critical commentary about this particular front page anywhere in the article which means that it's use seems more decorative than contextual and probably cannot be kept unless some more specific sourced commentary about this particular day's front page is found and added to support using the image. Moreover, even restoring the file to the infobox might now have issues with WP:FREER because there are a number of freely licensed images of the front in addition to the one currently used which could serve basically the same purpose as any non-free one used in the infobox. -- Marchjuly (talk) 09:33, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I was the editor who added it back as I was the one who had originally uploaded the cover. I clearly pinpointed why I was doing the move here in my edit https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_New_York_Times&diff=959420149&oldid=959410455 Quote: "The infobox now carries a cover which is not a representative of what NYT looks like but a one day novelty. Keep this cover as a more representative of what NYT looks like in general" Unquote... To reiterate my point: I find that the use of the current image of a plain page with listing of the dead of the Coronavirus pandemic is a highly unrepresentative depiction of The New York Times. We have picked an anomaly in design made for one day as actually representing what The New York Times newspaper generally looks like. It couldn't be further from the truth. It is a highly misleading in that regard. I suggest immediate reinstatement of File:NewYorkTimesFrontPage-15Nov2012.jpg or better, a newer but representative version of the paper in the infobox as it actually looks like 364 days of the year rather than this "once in a lifetime" thing. The current depiction in the infobox could be used further down in the article possibly with a brief discussion of the special design of the paper on specific circumstances. But it has no place in the infobox as the cover of the NYT. Colleague User:Marchjuly provides a great solution for the whole dilemma and I quote: "There are a number of freely licensed images of the front in addition to the one currently used which could serve basically the same purpose as any non-free one used in the infobox". That's brilliant! Let's use one of those available images then and demote the present one in the infobox further down the article. werldwayd (talk) 09:51, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Whatever your reasons were for re-adding the image, you basically did so without updating the in non-free use rationale you provided when you uploaded the file. The way the file is being used now isn’t the same way it was used then and the rationale needs to reflect this new use. Moreover, I’m not sure it’s the individual stories that appear on a paper’s front page are what serve as primary identification. It’s the masthead which seems to identify the paper and thus it’s the masthead which serves as primary identification. The stories and the photos appearing on the front page change daily, but the masthead remains the same. The content appearing in the current infobox image may be a one time thing, but the same could be said about the front page for any issue of the paper has ever been published. The image you uploaded could be replaced by a similar image of the front page of today or tomorrow’s NYT with out any real loss of encyclopedic information, which makes the use of any non-free image a bit questionable, particularly when there are two free images (those were the images I was referring to in my original post, but I should’ve been more specific on that point) showing the masthead currently being used in the article.
If you feel that the current image is too much a “once in a lifetime” type of thing and contextually wrong for the infobox, then perhaps you should discuss that at Talk:The New York Times. Illegitimate Barrister is the editor who replaced the infobox image; so, perhaps he can clarify why. However, the way the non-free image is being used now doesn’t seem to meet the WP:NFCCP; if the consensus, turns out that’s it better to use this non-free or a more recent non-free in the main infobox (perhaps the front page underwent a major reworking since November 2012) instead of the current free one, then it should be moved back and the other one moved into the body of the article. Whether any non-free is still needed per WP:FREER now that an apparently free equivalent exists is not clear and is one of the things hopefully this FFD will resolve. — Marchjuly (talk) 11:26, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your advice. I have now posted a message on Talk:The New York Times exactly as you suggested. There are no responses as yet to my post, but I have serious reservations about what we presently have as an image on our NYT infobox. werldwayd (talk) 21:40, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. A more detailed explanation is available at #File:New York Times, May 24, 2020 cover.jpg; essentially, this image does a better job of showing what NYT looks like than the current image, which is not free (the text-only deal does not apply when the text has unique creative expression and arrangement). -BRAINULATOR9 (TALK) 14:49, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NFCC#8: not used for critical commentary or educational value but purely for decoration in an infobox. Presence of this image does not enhance understanding enough to warrant inclusion of non-free media. ―Justin (koavf)TCM 06:09, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Koavf - Keep The image is a promotional image released prior to the episode which also highlights a significant element of the episode, used as per Manual of Style guidelines at MOS:TVIMAGE. It illustrates a significant alternative appearance for a member of the main cast of the series, about whom the episode is focused on/titled for, which is referred to in the body of the article.

Just to clarify, the image is one of a series of official photos released by The CW/WB and published on 4 Nov 2014, prior to the episode airing on 5 Nov 2014, rather than a screenshot. In fact, the image appears to have been taken specifically for promotional purposes, as it does not appear as part of a scene in that episode (it is later used in a subsequent season as a reference back to the characters appearance).

See File talk:HeartcatchPreCure.png. The question is: If there is a non-free logo on X-TV Series. Can there also be one at List of X-TV Series episodes. I would say no, however Andy Dingley does not agree. What does the community think? Jonteemil (talk) 18:00, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It is not necessary to have three frames of the non free video in question for wp per nfcc#3. There are plenty of reports that cover the details of the event and you can link to the video, to understand how most this the man being push down by the officers, only one frame is needed to establish context within article Masem (t) 12:00, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Both non-free images are claimed to b used for visual identification for the article on the Muslim Educational Trust. The use of two non-free images for this purpose fails WP:NFCC#3a. The images themselves are not logos, crests, seals or any sort of image that would be used by an organisation as an identifying mark. As such, they do not fulfill the purposes of visual identification as claimed and their usage also fails WP:NFCC#8 as there is no sourced commentary about the images themselves.
