Uploaded by Tckma (notify | contribs). Superseded by Image:Rhode Island blank.svg. TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 00:48, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I don't understand, I mean, it's the same image in a different format. But whatever, just be sure to change the image in {{Rhode_Island-State-Highway-stub}} first. -- Tckma 01:27, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Uploaded by Coz 11 (notify | contribs). Fails criterion one of Wikipedia's fair use policy: No free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information. Image:RogersCentreFieldturf.JPG is available to illustrate FieldTurf; if Qwest Field's specific FieldTurf needs to be illustrated (it doesn't, really), Image:2005NFC-Champs-Celb001.jpg is available. Punctured Bicycle 01:23, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This photo was provided in media releases and was posted here with the written consent of the President of the company. It depicts the first installation in a permanent NFL game site. While the Rogers Center picture is of a site that has field turf installed it is not the focus of the image, nor is it in the image from the NFC Championship game. --Coz 19:43, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The Rogers Center picture is an adequate illustration of FieldTurf—in fact, it is much more detailed than the Qwest Field aerial photo. The company giving permission to use their unfree image has no bearing on the issue; WP:FUP states: "Always use a more free alternative if one is available."

Uploaded by CyberGhostface (notify | contribs). Unfree image of living person. Violates item #1 of WP:FUC, going directly against counterexample #8 WP:FU#Counterexamples. I tried the {{Replaceable fair use}} tag, but it was disputed.- Abu Badali 14:28, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Please see talk for further discussion. My arguments: one, WP:FUC #1 is satisfied (the word "reasonably" was recently removed—incorrectly, in my view—and there's a massive difference between "difficult" and "when was the last time Lindsay Lohan was available for a free image?"); two, WP:FU#Counterexamples #8 does not apply if WP:FUC #8 is met (specific to identification of article subject). I must ask that any editors involved in this Ifd take considerable care when working toward a decision; this will affect virtually every fair-use image of every "celebrity" on Wikipedia. RadioKirk (u|t|c) 14:51, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Unfree images of celebrities are already being deleted in ifd under FUC#1. Wikipedia has a lot of free images of celebrities and imho, the only reason we don't have even more, is because it's simply easier to grab an unfree publicity shot from the internet. --Abu Badali 16:12, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And, it's wrong. By targeting legitimate promotional images together with those incorrectly tagged as promotional, editors have created a baby-with-the-bathwater effect that will have a massive impact on the entire encyclopedia. I cannot state my opinion forcefully enough—this is going too far, and it is wrong. RadioKirk (u|t|c) 16:22, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Don't Delete As far as I'm concerned, fair use pictures should only be removed if there is a free equivalent.--CyberGhostface 15:13, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I'm affraid you're mistaken. Unfree images are only kept if a free equivalent is not available nor could be created. See #1 on WP:FUC. This used to be a gray area, but WP:FU has been updated to clarify this matter. --Abu Badali 16:12, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Abu is correct. We cannot use "fair use" photos of living celebrities on Wikipedia, as it violates our first fair use criterion. Jimbo has said on multiple occasions that "fair use" images should not be used when a free alternative could possibly be made. I understand that CyberGhostface strongly disagrees with our policy, but it's still our policy. – Quadell (talk) (random) 12:03, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Then, once again, it needs to be re-rewritten per the discussion currently under way. The recent changes are too strict; there needs to be a reasonable expectation that the average Wikipedian can create an image and, for some living celebs, that's more than just "difficult". RadioKirk (u|t|c) 12:57, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Buiding a free content encyclopedia is more than just "difficult". --Abu Badali 15:53, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, but therein lies the rub: while "[a]ll text is available under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) and may be distributed or linked accordingly", at the same time, "[i]mages and photographs, like written works, are subject to copyright [and, i]n some cases, fair use guidelines may allow a photograph to be used" (emphasis mine). Any notion that Wikipedia must be 100% free is not supported by policy, even with the recent changes. :) RadioKirk (u|t|c) 16:53, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The current stricter text was written by one of Wikipedia's lawyers and explicitly approved by Jimbo and the rest of the foundation. It isn't likely to change. And under these guidelines, the image must be deleted. Sorry. – Quadell (talk) (random) 14:39, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well, you'll forgive me then if I continue to fight this, tooth and nail. :) RadioKirk (u|t|c) 15:39, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
But please, "combat" the policy at the policy page. Not the policy application. Your dislikeness for the policy is not a valid reason for not deleting this image. --Abu Badali 20:19, 20 October 2006 (UTC):::[reply]
Fix the policy, save the image... RadioKirk (u|t|c) 20:30, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
