The result of the debate was Keep. Apparently notable individual. Our commitment to freely licensed materials means we use photos of sports figures in their 60s because they're freely licensed, the same principle applies backwards as well. WilyD 20:40, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

• Orphaned image of a non-notable individual. Muchness (talk) 04:45, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
• I've been informed on my talk page that this is an image of Michael Riccardi, the would-be assassin of Al Sharpton. If that's true, it's obviously an older photo (Riccardi was 27 at the time of the stabbing), so the image description page is still lacking accurate source information (e.g., when it was taken and by whom) to establish its veracity. --Muchness (talk) 05:24, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Follow-up note: the image description page has been updated with additional source info. --Muchness (talk) 06:03, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

• when will the deletion policy be removed —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.164.68.171 (talk • contribs) 14:34, March 20, 2008

• Delete. Even if the updated "source info" is true, which I'm not terribly convinced of, a photo of someone as a kid when they're only notable for one thing they did when they were 27 isn't particularly encyclopedic. -- Kéiryn ^talk 21:28, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Similar or equivalent images of National Emblems like Image:Emblem of India.svg have been released under such free license, hence by way of precedence it would be unjustified to selectively target Image:SCIEmblem.gif. LegalEagle (talk) 02:45, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
