[edit] Famous photos from WW2

Collection of unsourced photos which appears to have been put up solely for the use of a highschool class. See SHS WW2. Delete. Fightindaman 23:19, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per all above. Wikipedia is not a picture post. Images themselves should be tagged for deletion as well. --Kinu 00:00, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete Wikipedia is not a picture gallery. These photos might be reasonable on on articels about aspects of WWII, if properly sourced. but this ins't such an article. DES (talk) 00:26, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, although I believe that Wikipedia can contain galleries, this is one is so context free as to be useless. Plus there is the issue of unsourced images, most of which will have to go. (Please see and comment on Wikipedia talk:What Wikipedia is not/galleries.) Dsmdgold 16:08, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as context-free gallery of unsourced or noncommercial images. If they were available under GFDL or some other free license, I'd suggest transwiki to the commons. But they aren't. Stifle 20:35, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
