  • This image of Cheryl Crow is being used to show an outfit. The image is redundant if it were properly described. Further, since the image is not historical or critical to the subject of the article, and feasibly replaceable by any audience member with a camera, it should be deleted Matthewedwards :  Chat  00:08, 29 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disagree numerous articles use snaps from recordings of TV performances. The outfit is integral to the millatary theme which has become synonymous with the song and live performances of it. The outfit recieved a lot of media attention and it clearly sourced within the article. I admit that perhaps an audience snap might be more appropriate however we currently don't have one. Lil-unique1 (talk) 13:38, 29 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • And just because we don't have one, doesn't mean one doesn't exist. If you watch the episode, you can see plenty of camera flashes from the audience. Any one of these pictures could be freely licensed and used. Just because we don't have one yet, doesn't mean we should go around using copyrighted images instead. Matthewedwards :  Chat  22:21, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • i've revised the non-free usuage criteria and still believe that its use is justified. whilst it could probably be lower the image did recieve lots media coverage which does make it notable. The non-free image criteria states that non-free images can only be used in the absense of free images providing there is a strong description of why the image is required. I believe we satisfy WP:NFCC because the image adds significantly to reader's understanding of the subject matter. Regards, Lil-unique1 (talk) 16:38, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's still not enough to justify using a copyrighted image where a free-licensed alternative could be available. The image did not receive lots of media coverage, her performance and outfit did, and the image shows the performance and outfit, but the text in the article She adorned a military-themed outfit by Welsh fashion designer Julien MacDonald. It consisted of a sheer bodysuit[14], a red military jacket with black epaulettes as well as other details other detail, black harem trousers[15] and Alexander Wang boots.[16]describes the outfit perfectly, so using a copyrighted image does not significantly add to the reader's understanding. Matthewedwards :  Chat  17:08, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • I meant what the image is depicting recieved a lot of media attention. The outfit itself became synonymous with the performance of the song. She appeared in the same outfit numerous times including in white and blue variation for the BRIT Awards. Though i agree it is well explained it still add to reader understanding because the image shows the outfit together demonstrating the military theme which was effectively being used to promote the song. Regards, Lil-unique1 (talk) 17:28, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • NFCC#1 says "Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available, or could be created" Free equivalents are available. Audience members took photos of the performance, and one of those could be licensed for use on Wikipedia. While WP doesn't have access to one of those photos yet, that doesn't justify using a non-free image. It goes on to say "Could the subject be adequately conveyed by text without using the non-free content at all?" And yes, it could -- see the quote from the article in my previous post.
  • The image is of a living person, and we rarely allow copyrighted images of living people.
  • The image is too big, anyway. It should be a maximum of 300px on its largest side to meet "low resolution". Matthewedwards :  Chat  17:39, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • is there any way we can save this image? i will upload a smaller one now. regards, Lil-unique1 (talk) 22:16, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the media below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the media's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the discussion was: Keep; early closure. I have been monitoring a series of discussions bearing upon this nomination, on various talkpages and on ANI. It appears that for whatever reason, perhaps based on a good-faith concern that Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) had uploaded other problematic images, TreasuryTag nominated for deletion substantially every image that R.A. Norton had ever uploaded, and that an administrator had encouraged him in this endeavor. While it is legitimate for image-patrollers to pay special attention to images uploaded by users who have made mistakes in the past, in this instance this precept was taken to an extreme with this nomination of this school photograph of the editor taken at age 8, in 1966. It is highly questionable that such a nomination would ever have been made if any other user had been the uploader. Under all the circumstances, and in the context of the sprawling dispute involving these editors and the ongoing contentiousness, I find that this nomination is unhelpful and that the debate should be closed. I am confirmed in this conclusion by the fact that there appears to be no substantial basis for a copyright concern here. We are dealing with a school photograph taken in 1966. (For editors in locations where school photographs are unfamiliar, there is a custom in the United States that the school employs a photographer to take snapshots of all the children, which are then offered to the parents for sale over a period of a few days or weeks.) As a practical matter, no photographer, who presumably would have held the copyright to the photograph, would be concerned about an uploading of such a photograph of a non-notable individual some 44 years after the fact. Even as a formal or legal matter, this image being United States and pre-1978, any copyright registration would have required renewal and I find as a fact that there is no possibility that a school photographer would have filed with the copyright office and paid the fees associated with renewing the copyright on the tens of thousands of school photos that he or she would have taken over the years. There are interesting philosophical and legal debates to be had about how vigilant Wikipedia should be in protecting notional copyright claims, meaning claims in which there is little real possibility that a copyright-holder would be affected or concerned by our reuse of material that might formally be under copyright, but in this case my conclusion is that there is no meaningful possibility that copyright still exists. The combination of all these factors leads to the inexorable conclusion that this debate should be closed at this time with a Keep result. Newyorkbrad (talk) 14:46, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • The previous deletion discussion closed as "no consensus"—however, I do think that there is an issue there that needs sorting out. The closing admin advised that I relist. Read over last time's debacle, and it would perhaps be best if people who didn't comment last time gave their views now, so as to try and build a consensus on the issues raised in the last round? ╟─TreasuryTag►Tellers' wands─╢ 18:17, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Of course, as the nominator 7 days ago, that caveat would include yourself. I would think any who commented in the last discussion, whether for delete or keep, should be informed that the file that was kept less than 24 hours ago has been again sent to deltion discussion, and so be and encouraged to ofer an opinion as to the image being {{PD-Pre1978}} or not. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 18:59, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, I can't stop you!, though everyone who commented has already commented, and I fear that this new discussion would be derailed if they all piled on again with their respective views. ╟─TreasuryTag►Counsellor of State─╢ 19:01, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    For the purposes of this discussion, you may think of it as a relist to obtain a more lucid consensus. -FASTILY (TALK) 19:08, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    If it were a relist, editors would be seeing the original discussions and the little relist notice. However many times something is sent to deletion discussion, every instance is a new discussion. This is now a new discussion, on a recently closed file... and not simply a relist. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 19:20, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Fair enough. Being the original closing admin, would it please you if I were to add a little notice? -FASTILY (TALK) 19:27, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Not wanting to seem flippant, for that is not my intent, but why did you close and then suggest a relisting on the nominator's talk page, rather than simply relist the ongoing discussion to get continued input Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 19:48, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The nominator explained to me that they were not happy with the original result, and I agreed that by relisting the file, more decisive action could be taken. -FASTILYsock(TALK) 22:16, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That would seem to encourage nominators to do an end-run around the WP:DRV process. If a nominator does not agree with a close, the prescribed proceedure is to go to Deletion Review so the close could be dicsussed. With respects, sugesting a hurried renomination encourages any nominator anywhere to renominate any deletion discussion as many times as he wishes until he decides he is satisfied. Perhaps this hurried return to deletion should be procedurally closed and we all go to DRV instead. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 22:29, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
DRV is for where someone feels there was a procedural error in the closure of the discussion. I don't think there was; Fastily acted properly. However, in this situation, "no consensus" is not good enough, so I relisted. Since there are now !votes on both sides, a procedural close would be contrary to WP:IAR at best, and POINTy at worst. ╟─TreasuryTag►voice vote─╢ 22:37, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You did not "relist", else we'd be seeing all the previous discussions. You re-nominated... and then suggested that all those who opined earlier not opine here. Ouch. The closer could have simply re-opened the earlier closed discussion, specially since it was so very recent, and tagged the earlier and ogonig discussion as relisted. That was not done. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 22:52, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You see Michael, DRV would only be applicable if I did not agree with TT or refused to take action in response to his query. But as you can clearly see, he has my support. -FASTILYsock(TALK) 22:40, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
WP:DRV is for when someone disgrees with a close. I respect that you closed as no-consensus, even when you yoursef agreed with the nominator, as that shows integrity and respect for consensus. It is his renomination after 17 hours and without going through the DRV process that is the flaw. And (elephant in the room) the nominator's ongoing disagreemnets with RAN seem to make this seem a bit personal. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q.
Yes, DRV is for when someone disagrees with the close. Yes, the close was correct. So yes, DRV was not the right avenue. The rest of your argument, in which you baselessly allege that I am purusing a vendetta against Richard, is not only a personal attack but also irrelevant. WP:DR is right over there... > ╟─TreasuryTag►quaestor─╢ 22:52, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If the close was correct, why did you decide to renominate 17 hours later? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 23:02, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
To obtain a more lucid consensus. Simple as that. -FASTILYsock(TALK) 23:18, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
@ Fastily: The nominator has now stated that your close was correct. His renomination 17 hours later simply because he disaagreed with a correct close is out of process. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 23:24, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
With all due respect, the nominator never disagreed with my close. All he wants is more definitive action. -FASTILYsock(TALK) 23:30, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Then you as closer should have reopened and relisted.. but that boat has sailed. The new deletion nomination 17 hours later is out of process, specially as the one person best able to ofer evidence is blocked and unable to participate. Had it been 17 weeks, I'd not have a valid complaint, would I? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 23:35, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Like I said above - If you like, I can add the little notice. -FASTILYsock(TALK) 23:37, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
@ Fastily: The notice would have gone on the earlier discusion it it were at-the-time relisted... and editors would see it at the base of the previous discussion. For good or bad, what we have here now is a new AFD, and I do not envy the headaches. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 23:49, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
@ TreasuryTag: A procedural close can happen anytime it is deemed appropriate, delete votes or not. Surely you recall the very recent numerous procedural closes of AFD's of many of RAN's artcles? Closes that happened even with delete votes offered? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 23:49, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
And please... I did not use the term "vendetta" nor make a personal attack. I was referring to edit histories that show ongoing disagreements between you and RAN and spoke toward a possible seeming perception. Nor did I say that your renomination was POINTY. Just as someone remarked above toward RAN and AGF, if a pattern of behavior from anyone, RAN included, is seen as disruptive, behavior becomes relevant. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 23:02, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Per user's past history with uploading copyright violations. I like to AGF, but I find it difficult to give credibility to many of Mr. Norton's copyright claims. -FASTILY (TALK) 18:23, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep We're talking here about this one image, not others debated in other discussions. So let's make the discussion about the image and not the editor. AGF is AGF. ABF is ABF. An image that was taken and published in the US prior to 1978 without a copyright notice falls into the public domain. There is no copyright notice splashed across the image in question. Grade school yearbooks in the U.S. are published specifically so that parents of these children will not only purchase additional images, but distribute those images to friends and relatives, and place such images on Christmas cards, etc... the intent of such being to specificaly allow disemination of such images. The photographer that took the series of pictures for that grade school did so so in order to create images specifically for distribution and disemination. If he did not intend distribution, he'd be quickly out of business. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 18:46, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Although, if you read the previous discussion as I suggested, you'll find that multiple editors observed, many if not most school photographs are distributed with prominent copyright notices. ╟─TreasuryTag►Lord Speaker─╢ 18:52, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    You provided the link and I most definitely read that very recent discussion. I read an unfounded claim that "several of us have seen them arrive with copyright notices attached". Who? When? Where? Is this claim being made for all grade school yearbook photographs taken in 1966 or '67, or only that some have seen some copyrights on more recent grade school pictures somewhere in the world? Moot question. All that statement would indicate is that a few of the many thousands of grade school yearbook photographers might have decided at some point to copyright their images. That some might have done so is no indicator that all these thousands in the U.S. must have automaticallly done so throughout all time. {{PD-Pre1978}} exists because many hundreds of thousands of images were indeed taken and published withot a copyright notice prior to 1978. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 19:11, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Actually, TT is right. Many school yearbooks are published with copyright restrictions in some form, especially considering this yearbook was published after 1923; it's ludicrous to believe that this photo is in the public domain. Now the possibility exists that the yearbook was published without a copyright notice between 1923 and 1977 but by your own logic, do we know this for sure? This file is possibly unfree at best. -FASTILY (TALK) 19:24, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    With respects, his generalazation is not correct. And barring evidence to the contrary, I see it far more likely that this file is indeed {{PD-Pre1978}}, and perhaps even more likely that yearbooks... specially gradeschool yearbooks in 1966 and 1967... were not published with copyright notices. Heck, I just went through my own highschool yearbooks from 1967 through 1971 and none of them have such notices... and I attended a school in a litigious Southern California. So that some "may have" does not allow a presumption that all absolutely did so, as my own eyes see evidence that all did not. What some may see in an occasional yearbook in 2010 is not an indicator of what one might have existed in 1966 or '67. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q.
    I echo my point above. Without hard evidence, this file is possibly unfree at best. Just because we are unsure of the copyright status of a file does not mean the copyright status should automatically default to Public Domain. -FASTILYsock(TALK) 22:19, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    And I re-echo my own point. When I look in my highschool yearbooks covering a 4-year period 40+ years ago, I specifically do NOT any assertion of copyright. Why would I then presume that yearbooks from an earlier period grade school would contain what my own later highschool yearbooks do not? Please... can anyone show a copyright assertion in any 45-year-old US grade school yearbook? Or are presumptions being based upon something far more recent. If assertions are made based upon observations of gradeschool yearbooks from the last few years, they have little bearing upon {{PD-Pre1978}}. Common sense folks... common sense. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 22:44, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    You keep using your yearbook as an example upon which you base your argument but you fail to note how your yearbook is one of millions. Where is the common sense in that? -FASTILYsock(TALK) 22:54, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    You make my point. My 40+ year-old yearbooks are only 4 of millions... but at least these I have seen and can judge. Above there are uncited assertions that several here have seen yearbooks that contained copyight assertions... "several" out of the millions you have pointed out. "Several" is not a large enough database from which to make presumptuions about those millions. I have seen my own, and so I have 4 pre-1978 yearbooks that do not assert copyright. So to those asserting above, just which of you can provide evidence of a pre-1978 United States gradeschool yearbook that does contain a copyright assertion? Or are presumptions being made about pre-1978 gradeschool yearbooks based upon something post-1978? Post-1988? Post 1998? Post 2008? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 23:20, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I am sorry, but I do not see how I make your point. The sampling you have at hand is <0.00001% of all yearbooks in existence. You cannot really be basing your entire argument on such a minute sample. -FASTILYsock(TALK) 23:33, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. In my prior experience with these sorts of images, the uploader likely thinks he owns the copyright and can make it PD but the photographer, as previously mentioned, of school photos takes these to own make a profit and they own the photo, not the subject. — Rlevse • Talk • 19:46, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    @ Rlevse: With respects, if this were an image taken in the last few years, I would tend to agree... but for a likley-deceased photographer who took a picture for gradeschool yearbook 45 years ago? Is it the asssertion that the photographer's heirs and assigns own an as-yet-unestablished copyright in perpetuity? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 19:57, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Not perpetuity, no. I believe that copyright, where it exists, subsists for 20-70 years after death, depending on date and jurisdiction. To assume that the date, copyright labelling on the yearbook, health of photographer (!) and location all conveniently align exactly so as to qualify this image as PD is a ludicrous notion. ╟─TreasuryTag►Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster─╢ 21:18, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Do we really have to go through the same dance again, TT? You offered the same crappy response to my !vote at the last discussion. My comment is the same, since you force me: "I find your nomination of a picture of RAN when he was 8 years old to be rubbish. If there is some technical inaccuracy in the permissions and such, perhaps you can help right that egregious wrong. I appreciate your comment of WP:JUSTAVOTE because it serves to illustrate what a load of bollocks this particular nomination is.... Do you work for the RIAA, or whatever its equivalent is for 1966 grade school photos? I am absolutely in favor of the concept of copyright, but the overzealous supposed "enforcement" of US copyright law I see on wikipedia from time to time -- asserting, for example, interpretations that even Wikimedia's own attorneys say go too far (See comment of Mike Godwin at [1]), is ridiculous. Its like editors think they are empowered to make citizen arrests or something, and go giddy with this supposed power, enforcing the law in such a way that no sane government official would ever suggest or pursue. If Richard Alan Norton (1958- ) should go to prison for posting his 2nd grade school photo on Wikipedia, send me with him! Our Letter from Birmingham Jail awaits!"--Milowent (talk) 03:57, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Without a valid source, the copyright status of the file cannot be determined, so it is possibly unfree and should be deleted on that basis. Everything posted to Wikipedia must be verifiable. -FASTILYsock(TALK) 23:16, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This renomination seems to be deliberate disruption contrary to WP:DEL. As it seems to be in furtherance of a personal vendetta, it is also a breach of WP:CIVIL and WP:POINT. The grounds for the nomination seem to be entirely speculative. Per WP:AGF, I see no reason to dispute the statement made by the uploader regarding its copyright status. We have to rely upon such statements for most of our images and the practical onus is upon the nay-sayers to disprove them. Colonel Warden (talk) 21:56, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • As for your claim that we should treat Richard's claim of no-copyright-notice as true, nothing in WP:AGF suggests that we assume good faith where there is extensive evidence of lying in parallel situations. He's uploaded images with dodgy at best, false at worst, copyright claims before. Why should we believe him this time? ╟─TreasuryTag►stannator─╢ 22:35, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • The claim made in this case seems quite plausible, given the uploader's date of birth. He seems to use his real identity and so would be subject to real-world sanctions if he were to improperly misrepresent copyright. For the same reason, we should avoid accusing him of lying without any evidence. Colonel Warden (talk) 22:54, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Earlier it is suggested that pattern of behavior is irrelevant, and then arguments return to patterns of behavior in lack of good faith. It can't be had both ways. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q.
  • Keep image - In the absence of an objection from someone claiming copyright, I can't see any good reason not to assume good faith and accept the assertions of the person depicted (being RAN) that the image is in fact in the public domain. To do otherwise - and in fact, the nomination of the image in the first place - verges on harassment. - DustFormsWords (talk) 23:58, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
While I would love to endorse your theory, the thing with media files, is that if the file is in fact copyrighted but posted on Wikipedia as free, then copyright holder has a pretty strong legal case against us. The project could potentially be sued to the ground, and then there wouldn't be a Wikipedia for you to edit. -FASTILYsock(TALK) 00:02, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
A principle supported by law... and were anyone to cut-n-paste an image off this month's cover of Time, I could see how the project would have major problems if the image were allowed to remain. However, we are not speaking about the generalities of media file issues, but about a specific file... a particular image of a certain individual from a 1966/67 gradeschool yearbook where that individual himself declares {{PD-Pre1978}}. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 01:21, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
(Agreeing with MichaelQSchmidt) My understanding is that the Wikimedia Foundation asks us to let Wikipedia's lawyers worry about Wikipedia's legal position, and us editors just stick to enforcing the current policy. Here we have a claim by RAN that the image is in the public domain, and nothing but speculation to counter that. Wikipedia policy asks us to assume good faith in the absence of firm evidence to the contrary. - DustFormsWords (talk) 03:55, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • CCI focuses mainly on text issues, but if there is a legitimate concern about extensive copyright problems (which appears to be the case judging from the flood of FfDs), then a request can certainly be filed.

  • Keep per DustFormsWords' appeal to AGF. The uploader (after advice) has stated the image is {{PD-Pre1978}} and there is no obvious contradiction in that. The onus then falls on those who ABF to demonstrate why AGF should not apply. Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) is an autoreviewer, which means he is trusted to create articles, has over 90,000 edits, and has been a contributor since 2004. He has uploaded over 1,600 images and a review of the last 100 uploads shows 6 files deleted or renamed. That is not "extensive evidence of lying in parallel situations" as claimed, and it is bordering on a personal attack to attempt to invoke the criteria for WP:CCI against a valued, prolific and long-term editor. --RexxS (talk) 20:45, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Image is crucial to understanding the plot, theme, and production, and significantly aids in understanding these three things: 1) The image shows how Tesla's invention of wireless energy transmission is portrayed in the film, a key aspect of the plot, and 2) The image illustrates a key theme, the rivalry between Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison, and 3) The image illustrates the production section, showing how behind the scenes, production designer Nathan Crowley took the script from the page to the screen, converting the parking lot of the Mount Wilson Observatory into Tesla's experiment. Crowley's conversion of the parking lot of Mount Wilson into an experiment Tesla conducts in Colorado, directly illustrates Nolan's production preference for dressing Los Angeles locations to stand in for the Colorado location; There is even an entire article dedicated to critical commentary about the production locations in the film. This particular image is considered one of several iconic and widely published promotional stills from the film, appearing in many published sources including critical commentary in Los Angeles Magazine (2007-02-01) and is discussed in a podcast interview with Jonathan Nolan by Creative Screenwriting Magazine. Another version of the image (same scene) also appeared in a notable published interview with Christopher and Johnath Nolan in another Creative Screenwriting Magazine article.

That's why the source is needed. Most books will have some accreditation listed for photos. If it's from a web page or magazine, it gets a bit harder. Screen shots are easy to spot due to quality, setting, and the star will not look posed. I think it's a reasonable presumption that when a screen star has posed for a photo, and the photo appears "studio quality," that it was for publicity, and meant to be freely distributed to the media and autograph hounds.
