[edit] Jeddah Gallery
Wikipedia is not a mirror or a repository of links, images, or media files files; these images would be more appropriate being on Wikimedia Commons and linked from the main article, Jeddah. -- tariqabjotu 21:16, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
- Send somewhere else - but don't delete the content. It would be a shame to so many interesting images because we can't find a place for them. --Haemo 21:26, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

- Comment: Actually, we are not discussing deletion of the actual images themselves, only the specific article here which displays them as a gallery. The images will still exist on Wikipedia or Commons, as they do now, and can be incorporated into other articles as appropriate. -- Satori Son 13:50, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete as an image repository -- Whpq 16:26, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NOT#REPOSITORY, which states "Wikipedia articles are not: Mere collections of photographs or media files with no text to go with the articles." -- Satori Son 13:50, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
