Uploader claims to be "the copyright holder of this work", but other versions of the same photo can be found on the web [1]. The uploader has already been blocked for falsely claiming ownership of other images. High on a tree 02:47, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unencyclopedic photoshopped image. This is a picture from the UK edited to look like it is from the US. See this link [2] for more information. Khatru2 07:34, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - So what it's photoshopped? It makes no claims to be in the US, and it is simply illustrating what a right exit would look like on a highway - which it does credibly. I could understand if this was of a celebrity, or was used to mislead, but it isn't. Maybe a note can be put on the image page indicating that it was created in photoshop. Otherwise, keep it.--Esprit15d 13:33, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I still believe it should be deleted. It is misleading, because it is not a real scene. There is no right hand exit in the world that actually looks like this. It is a reversed picture of a British highway (where cars drive on the left) with corresponding cars and pavement markings to show these European cars driving on the right with American license plates. It contains both British and American signs (the exit sign is fake and added in). Because of the fact that it was the uploader's only contribution, and based on the link to the message board, it was probably created by someone with the sole intention of fooling people. Not to mention there are plenty of available and easily created substitutes such as this which I found with a quick search. Khatru2 22:17, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd delete it. There's no need to keep such an odd Photoshop job when such an image is so easily replaceable. Not to mention that, given the circumstances, I'm not sure the uploader even has rights to that photo, so it's a possible copyright violation as well. Nice catch, Khatru2. -- RG ² 23:35, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - This isn't commons where we should keep every potentially useful image. We should only keep those with encyclopedic value, which this doesn't really have due to ambiguity and photoshoppery. And since the provenance of this image is questionable, so is the copyright status so it doesn't belong on commons. There are plenty of good replacements in commons:Category:Road junctions and others. —dgies^t_c 18:32, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An equivalent is available on Commons at Commons:Image:Propranolol.png (same name so no links to update). Pascal.Tesson 10:59, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment The local image (Techelf's) is higher-resolution and fully skeletal, unlike the Commons one. However, we also have Image:Propranolol-2D-skeletal.png. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 13:15, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
commnet shouldn't the commons version be replaced by our local version? 132.205.99.122 19:50, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Commons showing through, but we have a better locally hosted version that we're using right now, noted above. -- RG ² 03:06, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image superseded by commons Image:SDA Membership.svg which is a SVG version with gnuplot source. This is not a simple {{Db-redundantimage}} because they are a bit different. The original version stores vector data in a raster form and is not easily modifiable. All internal links have been updated. Listing here as a courtesy to the uploader. —dgies^t_c 22:21, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Nice move. Would it be possible to add more current years since the curve is so substantial recently and later year numbers are quoted in at least article referencing this image? More recent yearly data is available on the same website you used as a source (see example at [3]) or I can supply the data to you directly if preferred. Also, the graph could use some cosmetic enhancements which I meant to do, such as a more prominent line and more artistic coloration for the graph background.

  - It's on commmons with source and dataset. If you want to provide a better dataset at commons:Image talk:SDA Membership.svg (same format please!), I can update it. As for artistic improvements, I don't know what you want but if you install gnuplot you can play around with the plot source. —dgies^t_c 16:35, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
