"No known copyright policy" and "freely downloaded" are not valid reasons for fair use. I do not see how fair use could apply in the way it is used in the two articles that link to it. — Konstable 13:26, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I fail to see how this image is a "non-repeatable historic event that is iconically associated with Albert Einstein". Legitimate fair-use photos of persons are extremely rare, and in this case, a replacement can be found. How is Einstein sticking out his tong so remarkable that a picture of it qualifies under fair use? Sala Skan ^{(Review me)} 01:13, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This picture is iconic of Einstein. It is ubiquitous in American culture at the very least, and as the rational states, it (the picture itself) is in fact talked about in the article--Cronholm¹⁴⁴ 01:22, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Not just a picture of a famous man, but a famous picture in its own right. Q.E.D. Fair use at Einstein, but not on user pages.--Father Goose 04:08, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
True, fair use does not extend to userpages. I will give them the heads up--Cronholm¹⁴⁴ 04:10, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

.... rmed and alerted via my edit summary. Should I mention it on their talk pages as well? --Cronholm¹⁴⁴ 04:20, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. per Cronholm. Search for more references, e.g. [1], [2], etc --Quiddity 06:21, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It is very culturally relevant and is a good example of Einstein's place in pop culture both then and now. As to 'Userpages' ONE userbox used it, and ONE user page had that box (mine). I've changed the image to a free use image.

This user finds copyright paranoia disruptive.

This user believes that articles are useless without images.

Sorry 'bout that, but I didn't want there to be any doubt about keeping the image. It was on 3 userpages not including yours BTW.--Cronholm¹⁴⁴ 08:42, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment--Did it get superseded, replaced, etc? If there is no chance it will get used again put me down for delete.--Cronholm¹⁴⁴ 01:31, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image is a promo image obviously, but source listed is likely not the original site for this photo, and the page itself does not load, only the link to the image itself, with no copyright info at all. 74.204.40.46 07:12, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Publicity photos of characters taken from www.dawsonscreek.com. Site says all material is copyright Sony Pictures, all rights reserved. All these can easily be replaced by screen caps of the characters, as done for Star Trek publicity photos.74.204.40.46 07:39, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Star Trek Photos

I know this was discussed at length, but the screen shots that replaced the old deleted images, are again being replaced by photos with no source or copyright info, and quite frankly, look like publicity photos again.74.204.40.46 08:05, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
