[edit] RFU disputed

So what happens now? It was tagged replaceable fair use, disputed, deleted by an overzealous admin, then taken to WP:DRV and overturned by the same admin. Where does that leave us? --Dgies 16:45, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

This was tagged as RFU disputed, with a fair-use rationale, and it was a promo picture. Why did you delete it? I'm sorry if I sound a little pissed but this just got deleted in User:Betacommand's reckless deletion of 1500 images, disregarding any tagging, and I got him to restore it, and here you go and delete it seemingly without any consideration either. --Dgies 05:25, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Greetings. I did not delete Image:Vectrex_3dimager.jpg "without any consideration", and resent the accusation. I deleted it because it was tagged {{replaceable fair use}} since Nov 17, and I deemed the image was replaceable. You had argued that the product is rare, and that's true -- but it isn't unavailable. One could argue that the Parthenon is extremely rare -- only one of them is in existence -- but a non-free image of the Parthenon would not be acceptable. You can find Vectrix 3D imagers for sale here and here. All the best, – Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 14:32, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] More comments

I have deleted this image because it was listed as replaceable for over a week, and no convincing argument has been given why it would be impossible to photograph one of these and release the photo under a free license. – Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 20:07, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
