Wikipedia:Files for deletion/2007 December 19

Image:Melissa_Theuriau.jpg (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by Jonjames1986 (notify | contribs).

• Stated rationale that this is a free image is "After much careful searching, I believe I've found a free image of Ms. Theuriau. The image is from http://www.rumors.it. On http://www.rumors.it/staff.htm, they state that their photos are believed to be in the public domain." I see no evidence that the website Rumor.it actually owns copyright on this image (and I see on the same page other images I know are copyrighed elsewhere), hence, I don't think they can make it available as a free-use image.

  • Delete: unlikely the originating site had held copyright for release, plus that type of statement is boilerplate talk for the exact opposite (i.e. website owner knows that it's not PD but posts it anyways). Kelvinc (talk) 08:44, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• The image is orphaned and useless. First, the text is almost illegible. It uses a bad color palette that obscures the foreground text. It does not even use straight lines. Further, it was improperly saved as a JPEG, taking up un-necessary space and creating artifacts (those gray smudges).--Gnfgb2 (talk) 09:15, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• • Probable bad-faith nom, user was just editwarring with the images uploader, to remove CSD tags, the uploader put on one of the nom's images. This image's information says it's public domain, and, created by Betacommand, therefore, can be orphaned (unlike fair-use images), and, the source (self-made) is clearly stated. No reason to delete, unless there is actual proof that this is a copyvio. SQL^{Query me!} 12:05, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• • • You just changed the subject. You're comment on my imagined motives and possible policy loopholes has nothing to do with whether the image is doing anything besides taking up space. That's why it should be deleted. Give me one reason why it should be kept.--Gnfgb2 (talk) 12:13, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• • • • It's not nonfree, and, not a copyvio. Under what guideline / policy should it be removed? SQL^{Query me!} 12:21, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• • • • • Per WP:DEL#REASON, it is "Content not suitable for an encyclopedia," and an image that is "unused, obsolete, violat[ing] fair-use policy, or [is] unencyclopedic." I tend just to use common sense, but obviously the image violates Wikipedia policy, as well. My guess is that even Betacommand agrees with me, since (to quote Cicero) silence denotes consent.--Gnfgb2 (talk) 12:33, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
