Revision as of 05:52, 17 July 2005

This page is only for listing images which are duplicates or otherwise unneeded. For copyright infringements, use Wikipedia:Copyright problems. For licensing issues that are not copyright infringements, use Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images. For images duplicated at the Commons use the {{NowCommons|Image:newname.ext}} tag instead of listing here, unless there's some reason the version here actually needs to be deleted.

Images that have been listed for more than one week are eligible for deletion if either a consensus to do so has been reached or no objections to deletion have been raised. Such images should be dealt with as soon as possible.

As per the speedy deletion policy, administrators can delete on sight "[a]n image which is a redundant (all pixels the same or scaled-down) copy of something else on Wikipedia and as long as all inward links have been changed to the image being retained." This does not include visually similar pictures, such as PNG versions of JPEG images. Such images should be listed here instead. For the time being, this also does not include photos copied to Wikimedia Commons.

Deletion guidelines for administrators -- deletion log -- List of empty images

Listing instructions

To list an image on this page, simply add it to the bottom. If it has been replaced by another image, also list that image, in the format "[[:Image:Foo.jpg]] - obsoleted by [[:Image:Bar.jpg]]".

Always inform the uploader that their image is at imminent risk of deletion by adding a message to their talk page. You can use {{subst:idw|File name}} (replace "File name" with the name of the image or media).

If you remove an image from an article, you should list the article from which you removed it, so there can be effective community review of whether or not the image should be deleted. This is necessary because image pages do not remember the articles the images used to be used on.

Add the following message to the top of any image page listed on this page: {{ifd}}, which shows up as:

This template should only be used on file pages.

On this page, state the reasons that the image should be deleted. Some people like to use the following abbreviations:

  • AB (absentee uploader) - the uploader has not contributed to Wikipedia in a long time, and is probably unavailable to answer questions.
  • CV (copyright violation) - the image might be used in violation of copyright, or else there is no copyright info provided
  • NE (not English) - the image contains text that is not English.
  • NS (no source) - image does not contain source and copyright info; tagged with {{No source}}.
  • OB (obsolete) - the image has been replaced by a better version.
  • OF (out-of-focus) - the image is blurry.
  • OR (orphan) - the image is not used on any pages in Wikipedia.
  • UE (unencyclopedic) - the image doesn't seem likely to be useful in an encyclopedia

Please sign any listing or vote you add, by adding this after your comment: ~~~~

Instructions for administrators

General

Before deleting an image, make sure of the following:

  • That the image has been listed on this page for one week or longer
  • That the uploader has been alerted on their talk page to the imminent deletion of their image
  • That no objections to its deletion have been raised, or that a consensus to delete has been reached
  • That the image is not used in any articles (note that "What links here" is not currently reliable)
  • That the image is not currently being processed as a copyright violation

Remember to check the image talk page for relevant comments, too.

If the image is to be kept, copy the discussion to the image talk page, and remove the {{ifd}} tag from the image.

When you've finished processing an image (either delete or keep), remove the listing from this page.

Avoid processing your own nominations.

Images moved to Commons

When deleting an image because it is now at the Wikimedia Commons, make sure the Commons version is totally kosher. Among other things, check that:

  1. all relevant revisions of the image have been pushed to the Commons, not just the most recent one.
  2. the Commons version really is as good as or better than the local one.
  3. the Commons version is really free, and properly tagged.
  4. the Commons version is properly attributed.

  • Image:Autofellatio.jpg. No, this is not a picture of autofellatio. It's an UV OR cat, overwritten by the Wikipedia background. dbenbenn | talk 2 July 2005 15:48 (UTC). Delete: I uploaded it as a random image to combat vandalism on the Featured article blurb for Vanilla Ninja and somehow the image I was replacing was deleted or otherwise disappeared. The cat image is not appropriate for use on Wikipedia so I covered it over with the background image. Monito 4 July 2005 08:38 (UTC)

  • Image:Fiery knight.JPG UE - Used on User:Curtsurly user page. There are five swastikas down the right side. Look closer. It is not a copyright violation. It breaches polite sensibilities. The picture was taken in 1944 Burma with swastikas everywhere. It is titled "Fiery Knight." The other picture on the user's page is also listed as 1944 Burma with more swastikas. It is titled "Swastika Knights." I don't think the references are subtle. Yes, it is his private user page, but this is not his private website. Wikipedia is a public shared resource that must submit to standards of decorum. I am not aware of User:Curtsurly publicly defending the pictures in any way. I may be mistaken.----Muchosucko 7 July 2005 18:05 (UTC)
  • Image:Sniper victims.jpg Copyvio from AP. --TexasDex July 8, 2005 01:23 (UTC)

-- The image certainly is not a hoax, there are many unconfirmed claims of airplane flying over London at July 7, some say terrorists were in that plane and were about to crash but explosives in the plane werent wired so they cancelled it. --Internets 8 July 2005 19:04 (UTC)

and a friend of a friend of my brother-in-law knows someone who was on that plane!
Delete, everybody who's ever lived in London knows that you can see planes flying over London all the time. Thuresson 8 July 2005 21:41 (UTC)
And if it was fact, we would have heard something by now. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 8 July 2005 23:26 (UTC)
The image is also orphaned. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 04:53, 17 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm the original uploader and only user of them, so I haven't left a message on my own talk page! -Splash 9 July 2005 01:08 (UTC)
1)These new files don't exist 2) Please select one licence out of the three 3) (I don't think it Gray code -- Its the graphical representation isn't it?) User:Nichalp/sg July 9, 2005 07:45 (UTC)
1)Sorry, missed a capital. I thought a bluelink meant it had found them. Corrected. 2)My understanding is that I can multi-license as many ways as I like. 3)The (correctly named) replacement images are Gray coded. -Splash 9 July 2005 12:28 (UTC)
I've now corrected the licensing as well, on all 6 images to just the GFDL. -Splash 13:54, 15 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. For both. Source was Google. Fair use should apply if it is applicable for other photos obtained the same way. Plank 14:12, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • To claim fair use you must provide the original source (Google is rarely an original source) as well as the rational. None have been provided as yet. RedWolf 04:41, July 17, 2005 (UTC)

Support the image needs to be deleted, and I uploaded it- before I knew better.

Hey, moving the image is fine, but can we move it to Eagle Scout BSA patch or something that doesn't use youth, because it is a Boy Scouts of America image. -Hoekenheef 02:25, 13 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
It's worn by the Youth on the Youth uniform, the adult wears the sqaure knot. On the actual Eagle Scout article, it is listed as such. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 02:32, 13 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Oh, come on. Vanity is allowed and encouraged on user pages. No where does it say those pages can't have images. Superm401 | Talk 13:03, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
For God's sake, Jimbo has three unencyclopedic vanity images on his page. Superm401 | Talk 13:06, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Technically, he has one. The two photos are from his article. But your point is correct. ral315 15:36, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Why are there two photos on the article page anyway? To me, that seems to be vanity of its own. Superm401 | Talk 15:50, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Oppose. ral315 15:36, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Keep, it is a logo for a company, and it is being used right now. It can be used for the article on TVSRR, if one is created. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 16:26, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
This is a fictional company, existing in the mind of Jason Trew of Ringgold, Georgia and on some of his toy trains. Apparently there was an article on his model railroad lay out which was deleted. Paging Mr. Neville Shunt! -- FunkyChicken! 19:39, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Keep. OK to have some images on user pg not used elsewhere. Elf | Talk 21:02, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The train spotter's model railway logo isn't bothering anyone on his user page. Spotteddogsdotorg 22:58, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
