File:Dhm9025detail.jpg

Copyrighted, used in Attack on Derryard checkpoint but doesn't convey any information about the article topic. Fails WP:NFCC criteria 8 and also criteria 1 (e.g., a picture of the checkpoint location today would serve the same purpose). Prezbo (talk) 02:18, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, or replace it by a low resolution pic of the original painting.

First of all, this painting is not replaceable for a picture of the site today, since the checkpoint was taken down in 1991 (It would have been dismantled anyway after the GFA). I have recently came upon some photographs of the place, and what remains is no more than a vacant lot in the middle of the countryside, thus its informative value is dubious, to say the least.

I somehow agree regarding criterion 8: it is just a small segment of the original canvas print. But instead of removing the sample it can be replaced by the whole thing. In fact, we can upload a low resolution of Rowlan's painting to have much more detail. Try here. According to the painter, he not only made his sketchs in situ just days after the attack, but he also reenacted the soldiers position during the action for the painting, therefore this picture certainly have a lot of information about the PIRA's ambush. Let me add that the soldiers posing for Rowlan were the same who took part in the real engagement. I ask to the administrator who will decide to carefully read this proposal and give his/her opinion.--Darius (talk) 00:19, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe the full picture "would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic," I don't know. I have a hard time seeing how this does. If you agree that it doesn't meet criterion 8 your vote should be "delete," not "keep,"; whether the full painting would meet that criterion is a separate issue.Prezbo (talk) 01:53, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, if your argument for keeping this is based on the circumstances in which it was painted, then those should be described in the image caption/and or the image description page. Otherwise how would anyone know?Prezbo (talk) 01:57, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File:King's Cross Fire.jpg

Copyrighted image of very poor quality, utterly fails WP:NFCC #8; I cannot see the difference between this image and a fire drill. Jimbo W junior (talk) 03:14, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File:Bill Ayers mug shot.jpg

Fails WP:NFCC#1 as there is a free image of him and WP:NFCC#8 as there is no indication that what he looked like in his younger years is in any way encyclopedic, let alone for this particular image as it is from prior to his notable Weatherman days. I also feel that there are BLP issues as it paints him in a disparaging light while merely being interesting but not encyclopedic. VernoWhitney (talk) 14:13, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep : NFCC#1 is "no free equivalent". It's vanishingly unlikely that there's a free copy of Ayers booking photo extant. It's an interesting historical artifact, and affords a visual comparison of Ayers as student radical then, vs. respected university professor now -- thus clearly passing NFCC#8. Note that this photo has been a stable part of the Ayers article since 2008. Also see the discussion at Talk:Bill_Ayers#Mug_shot_of_Ayers. Pete Tillman (talk) 16:56, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
