Revision as of 05:49, 26 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.

Listing instructions

To list an image:

  1. Add {{ifd}} to the image page.
  2. Inform the uploader by adding a message to their talk page. You can use {{subst:idw|Image:Image name.ext}} (replace "Image name.ext" with the name of the image or media).
  3. List the image at the bottom of this page. If it has been replaced by another image, also list that image, in the format "[[:Image:Foo.jpg]] - obsoleted by [[:Image:Bar.jpg]]".

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 the image should be deleted. This is necessary because image pages do not remember the articles the images used to be used on.

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  • OB (obsolete) - the image has been replaced by a better version.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.

See also Wikipedia:Deletion guidelines for administrators.

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.

Keep. This is a image showing several copies of time magazine, showing some some covers are reused over time. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 02:57, 19 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Second. What kind of nonsense is this?--Will2k 03:03, July 19, 2005 (UTC)
Also, the user who uploaded them still contributes, but not as much. See [1]. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 03:06, 19 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep These images are allowed under fairuse. I believe TIME has its own template for fair use. Its handy, comparing the ousting of Hitler and Saddam as well as the tragedy of 9/11. Definately keep. Redwolf24 04:30, 22 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Del - I did not know there was a duplicate. -mrbartjens 13:53, 19 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Image:Funny!.jpg and Image:Accurateabc.jpg: Both the same image, created on an otherwise unused account specifically to put this on the page Jew, I would say either with disparaging intent or serious obliviousness. -- Jmabel | Talk 06:34, July 19, 2005 (UTC)
Not to be construed as a vote in either direction for any of these images, but if you can't see that there is a difference between a pic of a guy being lynched and a pic of a guy piling in the chips.... Gzuckier 03:40, 20 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I can see the difference. 5 black men dangling from a noose is more grotesque, insulting, and salacious than a Jew at the poker table. I'm all for keeping filth off of Wikipedia, but let's start with the 5 black guys hanging on tree branches rather than the Jew at a poker table.--Muchosucko 20:07, 20 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Both of these images are orphans, so I also agree with the deletion of the images. The file names do not help too. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 07:14, 19 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Del Injustices done to "black guys" do not justify negative stereotyping of Jews (I'm trying to be polite here). Humus sapiensTalk 07:28, 19 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Come off it and have a sense of humor. Sillyness that is well meaned and occasional does not constitute vandalism any more than a friendly joke does. Illinoisian 05:43, 23 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
By checking Illinoisian's contributions, Illinoisian (talk · contribs), it looks like he used this image in the deleted article of Republic of Illinois. It was deleted due it being a hoax. And since I do not see a use for this image, it should be deleted. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 05:53, 23 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
