All pool data was integrated into article as table at Ukrainian parliamentary election, 2007. Supplied images is hard to see, update and verify by anybody other that original author. --TAG 20:24, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Image is free, is sourced from publicly available data, and usefully shows consistent polling trends. No reason to delete. Suggest, however, the image could be made clearer if colour coding was by party, rather than by date. Jheald 23:43, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - the image description page must contain the source for the data. --Abu badali (talk) 17:40, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This image is impossible to update by anybody other than original author. As this is pools for elections in progress - source information is not stable and will be changing. Image will reflecting old information and may become biased. On top of this - line charts like this should be uploaded as SVG or PNG - not GIF (per Wikipedia:Image use policy#Format). Additionally seat calculations done by unloader - this is unsourced original research. User:UkraineToday has strong political bias - he used to publish links to his own blog and now host information and images from it on Wikipedia. He has not contributed to any unrelated to politics article. --TAG 20:21, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • High resolution picture of Mario taken from nintendo.com. Fails NFCC, doesn't respect commercial opportunities of original, doesn't increase reader understanding. Uploaded over unencyclopedic personal photo by someone else. Probably just delete both — -Nard 10:26, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Appears to be an entirely appropriate illustration of a fictional character, just as we allow so many comic-book characters to be illustrated. I can't see that this is likely to have any impact at all on the original market role of the original copyrighted media. Jheald 23:34, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • It's one thing to use a comic book character, but this is like the publicity shots from NBC.com. This is not the original version, but an enhanced version made for Nintendo's website. Our use detracts from their goal of attracting visitors to their site. -Nard 23:40, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • The image is said to be a screenshot from a video game. If it's true, I believe it can be used to illustrate the video game character. But if Nard is right that this is an enhanced version (I can't say because I don't own a Nintendo DS), then the source information is wrong, and the image must be deleted. --Abu badali (talk) 17:48, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It's promotional art for the video game. - A Link to the Past (talk) 23:46, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete unless the following are done:
    1. Why is the source of the article not on the image description page? This is obviously not taken from a Nintendo DS game - this is official artwork.
    2. The image needs to be low resolution (should also be cropped when doing so). --- RockMFR 01:05, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It should be noted that A Link to the Past uploaded this image on top of another, completely unrelated image: [1] [2]. Please avoid doing this in the future.

Perhaps the best solution would be to delete the promotional Mario picture, thus restoring the original. Then the promotional picture could be re-uploaded in low resolution under a different name. —Remember the dot (talk) 18:55, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Like I said, I don't think I'd be able to make those modifiations. If you or someone else would?
Also, I uploaded this image over that because I felt that people would expect to find the video game character at that link. I reuploaded the image at Mario2.jpg. - A Link to the Past (talk) 04:39, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Intentionally uploading an unrelated picture over someone else's is vandalism. -Nard 20:21, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Non-free web screenshot not used with any commentary about the page being depicted, thus violating WP:NFCC #8. Note that this applies only to the July 13, 2007 uploaded version. There is an older version that is actually a PD user-donated image that should be retained. howcheng {chat} 16:41, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is my version (the PD one) and I've reverted back to it. I don't know anything about why it was replaced or who replaced it. Regards, Neilius 12:05, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • TV screenshot of a number of fictional military awards. Although it is used in the character's article in his "awards" section, it's of not much use to the reader since none of the awards are labelled, thus violating WP:NFCC #8. howcheng {chat} 17:03, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep did you read the text accompanying the image? They are in fact labelled, there's links to articles discussing the ribbons in question. It wouldn't kill the reader to click through to see which is which. There's even commentary on the inconsistency in them, such as the pins adding up to 64 years of service. -Nard 20:49, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The image illustrates the article, it isn't just decoration. There is no way to replace it with a free images, so it is valid fair use. --Tango 21:22, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Well, one could in theory build a replica collection of ribbons, they're all PD as works of the federal government. Of course the arrangement itself could be considered copyrighted. -Nard 21:27, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep The image is the basis for the section discussion, and allows comparison/verification against the ribbons on the actual medal pages. Jheald 23:09, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Delete: The section discussion is just a listing, and the image adds no encyclopedic information that isn't already conveyed by the listing. --Abu badali (talk) 17:28, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - the image could easily be replaced with a labelled schematic instead of a fuzzy screenshot. That said, I would prefer if the entire section was deleted, because it lacks secondary sources. Addhoc 17:49, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete individual ribbons are PD, replaceable by self-made image of ribbons. -Nard 20:07, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Unnecessary non-free image showing some pople protesting, used to illustrate the information that they protested. It's not necessary for the understanding of the text Abu badali (talk) 19:59, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • I disagree. Keep. It shows the manner of the protest, how the priests were taking a leading role, etc. This conveys useful understanding, beyond the mere words. Also in its favour is the relatively liberal reuse policy from TamilNet, even if we cannot class it as fully free. Jheald 23:21, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • First, we only distinguish between free and non-free. No matter how "liberal" a copyright policy may be, if it's not Free, the image must abide to WP:NFCC (see non-commercial and Wikipedia-only images, for instance). Second, I can't see how this image is necessary for understanding that the priests took a leading role in the protest, or for understanding any other information in the article. --Abu badali (talk) 17:32, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
        • There are many ways priests could take an active role in a protest march. But this image clarifies exactly how they behaved, and how visible they were. That adds understanding which is additional to merely what is conveyed by the words. Jheald 13:43, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Keep per User:Jheald Taprobanus 12:47, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - rationale: "provides visual information about the protest". Carcharoth 16:15, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That would be a keep for any image, as any (decent and related) image "provides visual information" - Nabla 15:11, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Unnecessary non-free image of a funeral of a child, used to illustrate the "effect of civil war on civilians". We don't need to use non-free material for that. Abu badali (talk) 20:05, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Keep Very liberal copy right policy of Tamilnet along with the fact that it illustrates the point made in the article that victims were civilians not combatants as initially claimed makes it vlaubale in the article. Thanks Taprobanus 13:06, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • We don't upload non-free material to proof statements. We cite reliable sources for that. --Abu badali (talk) 17:37, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
        • This is a conflict related article, nothing can be said for sure, everything is disputed. Fisrt did the massacre happen at all, then did people die at all, then did civilians die at all, then did children die at all ? Everything at all points are disouted. This picture is right under the UN section that talks about children dieing and it assures that it is not just attributed to the UN alone that children did die. Thanks Taprobanus 21:04, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
