Was used on a single article, Mami Wata, which I switched it out for the larger and higher quality image version in a premade country template. Thus the image is also orphan now too.

Uploaded by ßytes (notify | contribs). Orphaned by the deletion of its likely parent article, ExoSee. The uploader is absent I believe as well. See also Image:Exoseeimg.png, and Image:Exoscreen.PNG, which are also orphan, but pending deletion because they're orphaned fair use. Kevin_b_er 05:45, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
Uploaded by nharmon (notify | contribs). Image is not low resolution, is in GIF format, and includes a slogan, all of which violate Wikipedia guidelines on logos, which must be taken very seriously for fair use images. Grindingteeth 06:29, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
Keep - "Electronic Town Hall" is not a slogan. "Just do it" is, as is "Don’t Leave Home Without It.". Further, since the logo does not exist without the words "Electronic Town Hall", one can conclude that the words are part of, and not seperate from, the logo. Further, the formatting, while not the same as suggested by the logo guidelines, does meet its intent in looking professional. If it is determined to violate Wikipedia's policies, then I can change the formatting. And the image is 188x97px; 5.73kilobytes. How much further "low resolution" do you want? - N.

  • I might also point out that the user Grindingteeth may be a Sock Puppet of user Daloonik who has been banned and subsequently used other sock puppets like Blank_nate to blank my user page. - N. Harmon 16:54, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
  • For another example of a logo that has words, but doesn't have a slogan, see the Political Graveyard logo. - N. Harmon 17:05, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
If the Political Graveyard image contains a slogan where a version without a slogan is available, that is a reason to delete it, not to keep Grex's image. Grindingteeth 21:27, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
Not deleted. I don't see how this violates and policies or guidelines. howcheng {chat} 17:58, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Image:GirlsAloud_Nadine.jpg (talk | delete)
Uploaded by Fabricationary (notify | contribs). Licensing reads "fair use for identification and critical commentary on the music video in question" -- this image is only being used on the Nadine Coyle page, which alredy has a free image in use on it (Image:Girl Aloud 1.jpg) T-rex 01:42, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy keep - I, as the uploader, was shocked to see this screencapture I took of Girls Aloud member Nadine Coyle up for deletion. I have posted messages on the nominator User:T-rex's talk page asking why the image has been nominated, and this user has not responded to me in almost 24 hours.
This image is a screencapture of a music video for the Girls Aloud song "Whole Lotta History." From the moment of its upload, it has been licensed under "Music Video-Promotional screenshots," which allows for the posting of such pictures "for identification and critical commentary on the music video in question." There exists a free image for Nadine Coyle - which I have left displayed prominently at the top of the page - but it is not of the best quality and does not show her in much detail other than as a blurry girl in a night-club. The screencap I have uploaded does what the license says - provides an image so that the music video and one of its performers can be seen for critical commentary. Also from the moment it was uploaded, the picture has been accompanied with a brief fair-use rationale - that the video is copyright Polydor Records and I took the screenshot. If a more detailed fair-use rationale is needed, or if the picture needs to be scaled down more, I will be happy to provide or do it. Fabricationary 23:21, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
there never was any problem with the process just that the fair use rational is dependent on there being "no freely avalible equivelent"--T-rex 00:52, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
T-rex, there is nothing in the template for music video screenshots that says that they can only be used if a free image is unavailable. There is such an item in the template for a promotional image, but that does not apply to the image at hand. There is wide use on Wikipedia of articles in which a free image heads the article but many other images, such as CD covers, music video screenshots, etc., are also present to illustrate the article (Kelly Clarkson, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey...need I go on?) I believe the picture in question accents and expands the article, that there is a significant context for it, and that its deletion would be detrimental to the article. Fabricationary 03:39, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
Would I be correct in assuming that you believe that the fair use rational is dependent on that the template doesn't say that "they can only be used if a free image is unavailable"? --T-rex 00:52, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
In general, yes. The vast majority of articles with pictures on Wikipedia would be a lot worse off if all pictures that weren't free but fair use under approved licenses with stated sources were deleted. Fabricationary 13:56, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
Well thats where we disagree. I think that having fair use images in and of itself can be deteremental to an article... we really need to get some other outside opinions on this --T-rex 02:25, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
