File:Star Ocean First Departure.jpg – Wrong forum, no action taken. I'm not an expert on image licensing, but from the discussion here, it sounds like asking for this to be restored on WP:REFUND would be the right action. My apologies for what must sound like an overly-bureaucratic decision, but copyright and licensing is somewhat of a speciality, and it's important to get it right. – -- RoySmith(talk) 11:44, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The following is an archived debate of the deletion review of the page above. Please do not modify it.
I was told that having an extra cover doesn't help readers understand the individual video game itself and would convey the same info as the infobox image. Therefore, I want to replace the current infobox image with the front cover of the PSP rerelease. Or maybe I can replace the US PSP cover with the European one. However, I'm unsure of what Judgesurreal777 thinks; the user worked tremendously on the article. I want to contact that person first, but the user didn't upload the Super Famicom image. I don't want to nominate the current infobox image for deletion yet. Moreover, the video game project guideline normally encourages using English-language front covers. I figured the undeletion and replacement might be controversial, so I'm initiating a review instead. George Ho (talk) 23:21, 8 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Good instinct to reach out and ask, and you're right that if English language releases are encouraged we should consider one of the two covers for the games rerelease. The North American cover came out three days before the European one, but then again the European one has the cast on it, so maybe that one would be better. Just my two cents.

Comment, but close. Are you suggesting replacing the current infobox image in Star Ocean (video game) with a different one? WP:NFCR used to be the central location for discussing such things but now we are referred to WP:FFD. I wouldn't go anywhere near there because FFD tends to delete any image that is mentioned even in passing. The non-free content guideline WP:NFC is that one and only one cover art image is allowed per article. This is justified on grounds of "reader understanding" but it is applied as a formula with no regard to any reader's understanding or lack of it. I suggest using the talk page to simply agree what to do and I'm sure this will cause no difficulty. Thincat (talk) 08:46, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This doesn't need to be here. All you need to swap images around in an article is a talk page consensus (and even that only if it's contested). WP:REFUND routinely restores images like this, and would even if it had been deleted for being orphaned and non-free instead of you tagging it G7. —Cryptic 09:22, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
