Image:Pig person.jpg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This image was nominated for deletion on 2007 December 23. The result of the discussion was keep.

This picture, a photocopy of an Associated Press color photograph of a French pig-squealing contestant[1], was included in the Akkari dossier and later diffused in the media, incorrectly identified as one of the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons.[2]

In the dossier it had a typewritten caption in Danish: "Her er det rigtige billede af Muhammed" [Here is the real image of Muhammad], as well as a handwritten Arabic translation.[3]

Cropped from Image:Akkari-report-34.jpg (deleted since then, but still available on the Ekstra Bladet website: http://ekstrabladet.dk/grafik/nettet/tegninger38.jpg).

The photograph is credited to Bob Edme / AP.[1]

[edit] References

The image is believed to qualify as fair use because:

  1. The image is a poor quality, black and white version of the original color photograph by Bob Edme / the Associated Press, which has also been slightly cropped.
  2. The nature of the photograph and its inclusion in the Akkari dossier is discussed in the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons article. The image helps convey the effect of the dossier's circulation in escalating the controversy.[1]
  3. The image is not replaceable by a free image.
