Wikipedia:Files for deletion/2006 December 29

Uploaded by ChrisFrez (notify | contribs). Orphaned and watermarked. —Roguegeek (talk) 00:09, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep- Image makes sense. Tonytypoon 05:10, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• FYI, Wikipedia is not a collection of files ... if an image is orphaned and there is no compelling reason to keep it, we generally get rid of it or ship it off to Commons. In this case, the image has a watermark on it. Watermarked user-created images tend to be frowned on. BigDT 06:12, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - How this image got even a single "keep" vote is simply beyond me. I didn't put the image up for deletion for no reason what so ever. Not only is the watermark frowned upon, but the official policy clearly states "...user-created images may not be watermarked, distorted, have any credits in the image itself..." and that "all photo credit should be in a summary on the image description page." The image is a pretty clear violation of this policy. Roguegeek (talk) 07:00, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - watermarked, and the low number of contributions from the uploader does not inspire confidence that the licensing is reliable (I know, assume good faith and all that, but still...) CLW 09:59, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete for watermark if it is user-created (although I agree the licensing could be suspect). Trebor 17:32, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep until an image of reasonable quality is found or "created". If this image is under copyright, then it's fair use. The current rubbish alternative is awful and should not be used. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.10.210.113 (talk • contribs) 16:23, 30 December 2006

Delete. 82.10.210.113: The criteria require that "No free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information."

Let's break that up. First: "No free equivalent is available or could be created" (my emphasis). A free equivalent could easily be created by a Wikimedia photographer who lives in or visits the United Kingdom or Ireland, the only countries where the browser has been distributed to the English-speaking public. However, no such photographer has yet shown interest, so I made the Free (CC-BY/GFDL) image in question as the best possible replacement outside the British Isles. In addition, {{promotional}} states that it should be used on images that are "unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it" (my emphasis), not merely "unrepeated, i.e. a free image has not already been created to replace it". Per policy, a Free image is better than a higher quality proprietary image. By at least one interpretation of policy, even the possibility of making a Free image trumps the highest quality proprietary image.

Second: "that would adequately give the same information." Though I (the photographer) admit that the Free image's photographic quality leaves something to be desired, it does "adequately give the same information" that the browser software fits in the DS slot and a memory expansion pak fits in the GBA slot, just as the promotional photo does. --Damian Yerrick (☎) 02:33, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment – I was under the impression that photos used solely for userspace were not to be uploaded to Wikipedia, but instead uploaded to the Commons. I re-read the page, and it was only a recommendation to upload free and public images there. I have no problem keeping it, but still think it might be of more value at the Commons – Twas Now 05:06, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
