  • It violates WP:NFCC#8. The image certainly does not significantly increase readers' understanding of the fact. Once Image was used in a song (non-notable). It is whether it would be detrimental to readers' understanding not to have it. Without this image, readers would easily be able to understand that actress acted in the song.

  • Comment As the uploader of the image I don't think I should post a !vote here, but I certainly see a necessity to post a comment. It's both about the amazing level of bad faith that shines through this nomination and the justification of the use of the image. Here goes:
  • Bad faith: This deletion proposal closely followed my posting of the following on the Admin noticeboard, where I also discussed what I consider to be bouts of borderline stalking and the lamest of edit wars coming from the nominator here (and the editor in discussion there).

Yep. That would definitely mean a lot of hassle. Like when the user in discussion disputed fair use of a non-free image I uploaded. When I put a hang-on tag and detailed the rational on talk page, he went on to put it to speedy. Luckily, another user saw it and removed the tag, and rebuked the user for that. He also managed to get the image deleted, though it was restored (it involved three highly active image patrolers, too), and the user apologized to the rebuking party (no concern about me, of course). But, overall it was quite a hassle.

The source of inspiration by Ravi Varma.
  • Justification: The article (a GA) writes about how the film was inspired by the painting of Raja Ravi Varma, a point much better illustrated by positioning a scene from the film and the painting that inspired it (a public domain image) side-by-side. Unless there is a blanket call for deleting all non-free image, it may be very hard to see why this image should be up for deletion. This goes doubly true if we read the policy - "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding" (WP:NFCC#8). Check for yourself. I am quoting the article text and image caption succession below.

Article text: The director used three paintings of Raja Ravi Varma - Damayanti and the swan, Lady in thought and Girl carrying milk tray - as inspiration to picturize the song Pinakkamano (acted by Prithviraj Sukumaran and Kavya Madhavan; sung by M. G. Sreekumar and Manjari).[1][2][3] Sivan says, "Yes, it is a tribute to Raja Ravi Varma, who is so intrinsically etched in every Malayali's mind."[4][5]

  • That discussion in AN/I was about articles NOT for images. I did not have to follow your posting there. I felt it violates Non free image criteria (WP:NFCC#8), so I nominated it here. And I'm bit confused about links (with name) you provided. Nominating image for deletion should not be considered as bad faith nominating, Stalking, disputing or lamest edit warring. Otherwise, no one would've nominated image for deletion (IFD or Speedy). Of course, I had reason (WP:NFCC#8) to nominate it. Every day a number of image is being tagged for deletion (IFD or speedy). Sometimes, either they get kept or deleted through discussion. You are welcome to make arguments here.--NAHID 15:59, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, this citation page from emminent linguist and Ossetian himself Abaev's book is pertinent to the Ossetic language article, it states that Ossetian language has little to do with the Iranian languages, the image was removed from the article as a result of RV wars and in violation of WP policy on respecting attributed quotations.

  • non-free logo used only in user infoboxes Calliopejen1 (talk) 01:26, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It's not the original logo. It is an image that looks similar to the non-free logo, but is not the logo itself. See comparison here. If the use of the fake logo would be used for commercial gain or deceipt that would damage the owner of the original logo, they might be able to build a legal case. But this is not the situation here. It could be argued that the logo constitutes fair use (in a different sense as the fair use of the original logo for the wikipedia article about the object itself), but I am not a lawyer to make this fine distinction. --roy<sac> Talk! .oOo. 17:02, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
delete - derived work, even if the FU argument was valid it would be in breach of WP policy and therefore be deleted anyway Fasach Nua (talk) 18:51, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

weak delete - wp:bio "Basic human dignity", although if there were more images of the subject it would dilute the impact of this, if kept commons and rename Fasach Nua (talk) 19:58, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - The evidence suggests to me that this image is also a copyright violation and that User:Arctic Monkies does not in fact own the rights to it. Given the previous caption on the photo, I would seriously question their representation of ownership. Cumulus Clouds (talk) 22:11, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Who the hell are you question my ownership of the pic? I can prove ownership by providing another 20 he had me take at the same time.
