*'''Delete''' Hi all. I uploaded that image many years ago. It's important to note that when I uploaded it, [[WP:NFCC#3a]] and [[WP:NFCC#8]] did not yet even exist. They weren't there to fail! So the image seemed like a good addition. And while I do believe contributions could be made to satisfy both of these rules, I do not believe it's necessary. The article gets along fine without it.

*'''lol? no''' I think it's an excellent image, iconic (often showing in articles and promo stuff such as wallpapers) and the cover picture can't be used because it's a cover picture (with the logo and stuff). What the article actually needs is (at least) one MORE illustration, especially showing the duality of the Prince character in The Two Thrones (something like [http://www.justpushstart.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/popttt1.jpg]). All of these images can easily contain relevant critical commentary on them in the captions. --[[User:Niemti|Niemti]] ([[User talk:Niemti|talk]]) 10:57, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

The author is listed as "Unknown Brisbane Times journalist". Newspaper photos normally fail WP:NFCC#2, so this might need to be deleted. It appears to fail WP:NFCC#3b and WP:NFCC#8 anyway. Stefan2 (talk) 14:45, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. No. Please do not delete the watermarked image. This is used in a page, whereas the image without the watermark is not. The watermarked image relates to a page and provides information about the image. I have no knowledge that adding a watermark to an image means that it should be selected for deletion. If you have this information, please let me have it. Both images have copyright statements. Regards Gurnard (talk) 15:34, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the low-resolution watermarked images should be replaced with the high-resolution images without watermarks, and the image captions should be converted to text so that they can be read by blind people. --Stefan2 (talk) 16:55, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Invalid FUR--this is just a picture of her face and not critically discussed. How is this necessary for aiding the user in understanding the topic? —Justin (koavf)TCM 18:39, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's supposed to give the user an idea of the video. teammathi (talk) 21:45, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Fair use But it's just a picture of her face--how is this picture explaining something that text alone could not? —Justin (koavf)TCM 19:43, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - The image serves no function other than to decorate the article. Besides, it looks very awkward. The image of Del Rey with the Jaguar automobile is sufficient enough to illustrate the avenues of promotion used for the EP. There is no need to use this non-free content. --Thevampireashlee (talk) 20:38, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Purely decorative use. --Stefan2 (talk) 20:56, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Invalid FUR--this is not necessary for understanding the subject. Readers can easily envision Del Rey wearing a pillbox hat and leaning over. —Justin (koavf)TCM 18:41, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's supposed to give the user an idea of the video. teammathi (talk) 21:44, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The intention of the image is to show exactly how Del Rey depicts Jackie Kennedy in the video, from the fashion aspects, to her role in her husband's assassination. Without it, the article is seriously lacking. The article will not suffice on text alone to convey this message. Keeping the image is crucial to the understanding of the topic. --Thevampireashlee (talk) 20:36, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. This image violates WP:NFCC#3 (minimal use) and WP:NFCC#8 (contextual significance). The article – The Prince (Prince of Persia) – adoes not discuss the concept art itself at all (and therefore lacks contextual significance). The article does need the image of a Prince but File:Prince of Persia 2008 vg Box Art.jpg will do admirably well (NFCC 3a).

You're really, really hurt I removed your gameplay screenshot from non-game article, eh? (I wonder what was "contextual significance" of a random screenshot.) --Niemti (talk) 00:25, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, Niemti. No I am not hurt per se. I had that discussion in your talk page because I wanted things to go more friendly, not strictly business-like. (Deleting other people's contributions in cold blood is indeed cruel, let alone WP:CIVIL.) But since you refused to have a compromise and RfC also stonewalled me, I see all avenues of resolving the copyright issue peacefully closed. At least here, we can have a consensus. As you can see, I have recommended a replacement as well; so the article will not be devoid of image. Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 11:40, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The article already contains a different image of the character, so this additional image fails WP:NFCC#3a. Besides, this image isn't discussed critically (at least not anywhere near the place where the image is used), so it also fails WP:NFCC#8. --Stefan2 (talk) 13:10, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oh really Whatever "the" character? The article is about a series of different characters called "Prince", completely unrelated to each other than being protagonists in the series. As you can(?) see, they also look completely different. This character design image only in itself sure wasn't "discussed critically" (let's be serious), because it's only a very small element of the work (the game), but the design was. --Niemti (talk) 10:57, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Yes, the image is not the best in the world. Certainly not when compared to the one illustrating the Prince from Forgotten Sands. Your alternative looks a lot better, even though there is a caption across it. --ProtoDrake (talk) 14:53, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Hi all. I uploaded that image many years ago. It's important to note that when I uploaded it, WP:NFCC#3a and WP:NFCC#8 did not yet even exist. They weren't there to fail! So the image seemed like a good addition. And while I do believe contributions could be made to satisfy both of these rules, I do not believe it's necessary. The article gets along fine without it.
