- This image was kept at its 18 December 2007 IfD; however, DRV overturned that result because the IfD tag was removed from the image after less than two hours, and never replaced, preventing the possibility of a full discussion. For a full list of the image's defects, see the first debate. Delete per inadequate fair use rationale. Xoloz (talk) 15:52, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Weak delete - it looks like an RFU image, although the gas mask design was unique. I think we'd be better off with getting an image from the episode both representative of most of the plot and unreplacable. Will (talk) 17:21, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- weak delete - similar to above, can be replaced by an image more key to the plot. StuartDD contributions 20:50, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete as above. Eusebeus (talk) 23:50, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. Image is rationaled to "provide critical commentary in describing a key moment in the said episode." This copyrighted image of a gas mask, while unique to the production of "The Empty Child", does not significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding; the topic itself being "The Empty Child" as a whole (WP:NFCC#8). — pd_THOR | =/\= | 03:45, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - Unlike the above image, this one comes off as a random selection, not evocative of the episode or any plot point with int. - J Greb (talk) 01:18, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - doesn't greatly help the reader to understand the plot. Addhoc (talk) 08:00, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

- Unfortunately that is not an option. There is no sourcing given for the covers used in the collage and its placement in the Nazi punk article is not accompanied by any critical commentary of these specific albums. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 00:53, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

- Non-encyclopedic image intended for promotional use on Wikipedia. As an aside, the contributing user's page is also up for deletion for similar reasons. jonny-mt 03:52, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- One Wikipedian's photoshopped concept of an expanded Kyle Field, violates Wikipedia's policy on original research. Also, where did the original photo come from? -- B (talk) 03:53, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- original photo came from here, but they have since taken that image down. No original authorship was stated on the image at the time and an altered image of a PR photo I believe qualifies under fair use. Should it be marked as such?
- Furthermore, this does not violate WP:NOR as such a concept has been discussed. This is merely an illustration of such a concept. If it is not acceptable on the Kyle Field page, then it certainly can be left on my user page and need not be deleted altogether. — BQZip01 — talk 04:26, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Well, you have no rights to grant someone else a license to use a TAMU-authored photo. So we cannot use it as a "free" image and on Wikipedia, it does NOT meet our non-free content requirements because it is replaceable - the building exists now, so you could take a photo of it yourself and photoshop that. But more than that, even if that concept has been expressed, you are making assumptions about how it will look and that's original research. --B (talk) 04:29, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Then I guess we disagree, it is simply one artist's interpretation. If modification of a fair use image is not appropriate, then please remove the image altogether, but I'm pretty sure I am in the right here under U.S. law (...and yes, I know that U.S. law does not necessarily apply to Wikipedia, but it certainly applies to the creation of said image). If I need to specify another license, then please tell me what should have been used. — BQZip01 — talk 05:12, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- If the consensus is Delete, then delete it. I guess we disagree on application of policy/guidelines. If its use in an article (versus a user page) is in question, then the appropriate place is discussion on that talk page. I have removed said image from the page, so its active use is strictly on a user page now. — BQZip01 — talk 06:06, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Whether you could use this image outside of Wikipedia under a claim of fair use is not something that I can tell you (Wikipedia doesn't give legal advice - you would need to ask a lawyer). Some schools are territorial about such things and others don't care if you aren't trying to sell it. But on Wikipedia, because it is considered replaceable, it does not meet our non-free content policy. --B (talk) 06:53, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Ok, so we were talking about "rights" and that's what I was focusing on, but I can see how WP policy might differ.
- Can we agree that said picture may be perfectly acceptable as an application of legal fair use (as I interpreted it IAW WP policy & US law), but that such an image does not fall under Wikipedia's application of fair use and associated policies/guidelines? — BQZip01 — talk 21:18, 7 January 2008 (UTC) (UTC)
- In terms of whether it is legally fair use, Wikipedia does not give legal advice. That said, there is no exact standard in the law - in other words, it doesn't say you can do x, y, and z. Fair use is a defense against a copyright infringement claim, not something that is secured beforehand. So you would have to answer the question for yourself, based on fair use law whether or not your use meets the standards. For Wikipedia policy, Wikipedia:Non-free content#Policy #1 says we only use a fair use image when no free equivalent could be created. Obviously, in this case, anyone could take a camera to Kyle Field and take a picture of it - it's unquestionably replaceable. --B (talk) 04:41, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- But an image of a possible expansion is not replaceable as one doesn't exist. Or are we talking about the original photo here? I'm confused. Furthermore, with the regulations implemented since September 11th, you cannot fly above the stadium like this and get such a picture during a game, so, no the image is NOT replaceable. — BQZip01 — talk 10:22, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

- I don't see the relevance here. When I say "project goals," I mean your interpretation of the design and construction of Kyle Field, nothing else. I apologize if that was unclear. Cumulus Clouds (talk) 00:36, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
- Not to get too much off topic here, but I was specifically refering to WP:NPA where it states you shouldn't use "...someone's affiliations as a means of dismissing or discrediting their views." Since it doesn't apply, and no malice was intended, I hereby withdraw my initial reaction to your comment. Damn the English language and its imprecise lexicology! — BQZip01 — talk 20:33, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

- Comment This image was tagged incorrectly since it was a derivative work and should simply have been annoted correctly. I can also see how some people think this image should be deleted. While I still think it is an appropriate image (not in violation with WP:OR), since it is no longer being used on the Kyle Field article, there is no longer a need for this fair use image on Wikipedia and it should be deleted. Furthermore, I will remove the image from my sub-user page. If a fair use reason for it comes up for it in the future, it can always be re-uploaded. I would like to reiterate that I still believe this was a tagging error, not a violation of WP:NOR. — BQZip01 — talk 20:33, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
