Object Firstly, the image is of one of the blast sites and not of some random mopeds. So, it does not fail WP:NFCC #8. Secondly, the first version of the image was a screenshot of a television news channel, and now it is back to that version. One can clearly notice that the two images are different by observing the angle of shoot. So, WP:NFC#Unacceptable use: Images #6 does not apply. Thirdly, a free image of the blast site which still has smoke and fire coming out is not available. It adds to the encyclopedic value of the article because 1) It shows that the blast were low intensity as they were not able to damage nearby object significantly (in this case mopeds). 2) The press media seems to have reached the blast site before the police closed the blast area signifying the apathy of Ahmedabad's police force. Keep all these points in mind before taking any decision. Thanks --Emperor Genius (talk) 03:00, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see how "Many blasts were set off, including one site where several mopeds were destroyed" needs a picture to be understood. howcheng {chat} 03:14, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
One can use the same argument for most of the images including the Tank man image. I don't see how "A man standing in front of a column of Chinese tanks preventing them from advancing towards Tienanmen Square" needs a picture to be understood? Flawed logic. However, if you are so adamant on deleting the image, please go ahead. --Emperor Genius (talk) 03:25, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Except that the Tank Man photo was notable in and of itself -- we have a whole article just about the photo and the possible identity of the person. If there's such commentary about this moped photo, then it should be included in the article (sourced, of course). In such a case, then use of this image would easily qualify under our rules. howcheng {chat} 01:15, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This image clearly meets NFCC#8 - the scene of a violent incident showing the effects of that violence is both germane and increases the reader's understanding. That's the very reason the TV editors elected to use it in the first place. However, even though it may not necessarily be from a news agency, it is a journalistic image distributed through journalistic networks documenting a current event - and therefore runs against the spirit of WP:NFC#Unacceptable use: Images #6. In this context, use of the image seems to step on NFCC#2. --Ipoellet (talk) 20:25, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
