Delist and replace: Deleted and renamed file cleanup[edit]

This is a notification, not a nomination. I have deleted the following pages, previously containing featured pictures, because:

I've forgotten how to deal with these and they are in some inconsistent state. It also looks like File:Edward Hopper - Girl at a Sewing Machine (1921).jpg can be uploaded locally. MER-C 12:31, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've also tagged the following images as featured pictures. The originals promoted have been renamed on Commons, but their local FP tag got lost somehow in the mix.

Note that File:Duck And Cover (1951) Bert The Turtle.webm has been replaced in articles by File:Duck and Cover 1440 x 1080 01836081.webm, a higher resolution version. I will nominate it for replacing separately. The images listed at Wikipedia:Featured pictures and subpages are now in sync with Category:Featured pictures.

The only action required here is to determine whether File:Edward Hopper - Girl at a Sewing Machine (1921).jpg can be uploaded locally, and to upload it. I'm not a Commons admin, so I can't do this. If the image can be uploaded locally, then I'll restore the local file description page. MER-C 15:15, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • @MER-C: That could only be uploaded under fair use, if can't be proven it was published before 1923. (In which case it couldn't retain its featured status). But if that's possible, than it's undeletion should be requested on Commons. Armbrust The Homunculus 15:35, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Ahh, yes, the publication of a painting problem. I see that you have effectively delisted it (all that remains is removal from FPT). Duck and cover has been nominated for replacement, so I think we're done here. MER-C 20:20, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • Edward Hopper is American, and the picture was probably painted in New York. Therefore ability to host on Commons == ability to host here. I'm not going to pursue the undeletion of the image. MER-C 17:09, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
