Uploaded by Patchouli (notify | contribs). The source for the image is http://www.pcpages.com/ani/polgr/inani/lop/thenow4/thenow04.htm which is NOT a reliable source according to WP:RS. Rather it seems to be a propaganda link. Aminz 05:09, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes, this image comes from a Website with a clear bias against Islam. However, this does not warrant its deletion per the deletion criteria for photos at the top of this page. --Patchouli 05:24, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Patchouli, I believe it is unencyclopedic. If you could find such image on the reliable news website such as BBC, CNN, etc, I will have no objection to it. My point is that I, for example, can make a fake picture and put it on a website. If you could establish that this picture is real, I would have no objection to it. Thanks --Aminz 06:20, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

If I wanted to use an image from BBC, CNN, AP, AFP, Reuters, etc., then everyone would beat me on the head for downright copyright infringement. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Patchouli (talk • contribs).

Please establish the reliability of the image, otherwise it should be removed. Thanks --Aminz 06:40, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

It is irrelevent whether or not the website has bias against Islam. However, the website does not state where the image came from, and whether or not it is copywrighted. Given the amateur quality of the website, it will not be likely that the webmaster created the image himself, and probably copied and pasted it from somewhere else. Thus, without any knowledge of its copywright status, it cannot be used on Wikipedia. --Ķĩřβȳ♥ŤįɱéØ 06:12, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

If we want to play an speculation game, then I think it has been posted by an Iranian expatriate whose news outlet was shut down by the mullahs. It isn't our job to allege copyright infringements without proof.--Patchouli 06:23, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

I think the burden of providing the proof is on the editors who want to keep the image. --Aminz 06:29, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

• The subject of this photograph is Maryam Ghodsi-Maab. She was severely beaten and finally her "death on 7th October

1981 resulted from eight bullets entering her chest, eight her back and one her head. (Executed by the revolutionary court.) Coroner- Dr. Pazhuheshi.http://www.iran-e-azad.org/english/book_on_women/wi&e.pdf

Another account of her is at http://www.iran-e-azad.org/english/book_on_women/chapter2.html. --Patchouli 07:02, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Patchouli, 1. http://www.iran-e-azad.org/ is not an academic website. It belongs to the People's Mujahedin of Iran which is an armed, opposition group of the Iranian government. It is currently in the list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations of the US Government. Having said that, this does not imply that their website is not factual but they definitely do have political biases. I don't think such websites satisfy the requirements of WP:RS. Furthermore, one needs to establish that the uploaded image "is" actually the image of the same person. I suggest waiting for some admin attention to this case. --Aminz 07:16, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

• I pasted this discussion at Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2006-09-06 Victim photo from 1981 in order to get more people to chime in.--Patchouli 09:35, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Patchouli. --Aminz 09:39, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

• The original source of the image is not known. It could be copywrighted too. I support a deletion.--Truthpedia 22:30, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Truthpedia's removal of a legitimate image today at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Islam_and_Slavery&diff=prev&oldid=74220704 makes its position suspect with respect to neutrality.--Patchouli 05:55, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

fair use book-cover images are only allowed to illustrate the book explicitly under discussion in the article, it is not to be used for sensationalism. also review WP:AGF. ITAQALLAH 23:27, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Strong Keep, with updating: I also agree that this is a bad-faith nomination. The picture, regardless of its specific source, is of not only of a newsworthy event (the torture and murder of a rape-victim for "indecency"), but of a perhaps pivotal one in the context of recent Iranian demonstrations against hardline Shar'iah. The picture should be edited to crop the additional material surrounding it (other versions of this picture found on the net do not contain it), and given the appropriate fair-use designation.--Mike18xx 23:04, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Deleted. Without knowing who took the photo and where it was first published, fair use cannot be claimed. It is the responsibility of the uploader to ensure that the image is usable under a free license. All creative works are automatically copyrighted unless those rights are specifically waived. Even assuming that the copyright is held by an Iranian, although Iran and the US do not have a copyright treaty, per Jimbo's ruling, we will respect Iranian copyright law on Wikipedia. howcheng {chat} 16:34, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
