File:Friberg Samuel the Lamanite low res.JPG

This image was deleted on 30 June 2013`. --Diannaa (talk) 23:25, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Does not meet the (8) Contextual significance (for both Archaeology and the Book of Mormon & Samuel the Lamanite) nor meets the (10) Image description page (specific to use on article Samuel the Lamanite) requirements of wp:NFC. Have tried to resolve the issue at Talk:Archaeology and the Book of Mormon#File:Friberg Samuel the Lamanite low res.JPG, but contributing editor (Descartes1979 (talk · contribs)) who is perpetuating this image's usage in both articles doesn't seem to understand current fair use criteria (as opposed to what it was when this image was first introduced), so moving the discussion to this issue-specific venue. -- 208.81.184.4 (talk) 15:31, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

Happy to be shown to be incorrect - each time I try to engage with the anon editor above, my comments are sidestepped. The image is quite relevant to the Archaeology and the Book of Mormon article as it is a very popular image of the city of Zarahemla in Mormon culture. In my opinion, it is almost a perfect image for this article. Current trends in Mormon archaeology are clearly trying to equate popular beliefs about Book of Mormon cities and artifacts with real places and peoples. My justification for the image was given when I added the image to the WP - bullet 4 below is the strongest case:

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

It is a screen resolution (72 dpi) copy of a painting.
It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the painting or prints of the painting in any way.
Copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the artwork.
The implications of the concepts in the image are discussed in the article itself.

Again - happy to be shown to be wrong in my rationale, but it hasn't been shown to me by the anon editor yet, and hence my opposition. Frankly a little confused why there is such heated opposition, and this smells a little like Mormon activist trying to water down Mormon articles so they are less than controversial, which in my experience is pretty typical.--Descartes1979 (talk) 21:09, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

As demonstrated in the references provided at Talk:Archaeology and the Book of Mormon#File:Friberg Samuel the Lamanite low res.JPG, the artist (Friberg) responsible for this painting did not rely on archeological experts (or even amateurs) or experts in Mormon studies to help him decide what elements to include with this painting; instead it is explicitly stated that he became frustrated with the lack of any consistency or clarity on how to represent Book of Mormon settings, so he just decided to do things his own way, according to his own artistic sensibilities. This work, while widely distributed for it's artistic merit, is not now, nor ever was intended as a serious practical study in archeology expertise, nor as academically credible in the field of Mormon studies of the Book of Mormon. The artist himself many times stated that he never intended his Book of Mormon paintings to be taken literally: for example one of the common element critiqued in these works is his use of muscle-bound men, which he says he means to be symbolic of their spiritual strength. No one is looking for ruins or other archaeological evidence that look like this specific image; the image is of symbolic and artistic merit, and this article is about the a very literal "down-to-earth" topic of finding (or not finding) physical evidence of the Book of Mormon, via Archaeology, and so this image is out of context for usage in Archaeology and the Book of Mormon. -- 208.81.184.4 (talk) 22:00, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

Also the image is easily replaceable with a image that is arguably just as legitimate (or illegitimate) of a representation of a city described in the Book of Mormon, but the replacement image is properly licensed, and is housed in Wikimedia Commons: File:Bountiful by Josh Cotton.jpg. -- 208.81.184.4 (talk) 22:26, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

Another possible replacement is: File:Moroni - Book of Mormon.jpg, although it is of lower quality, and doesn't include a city wall (a significant potential archaeological feature), which the other two images do. -- 208.81.184.4 (talk) 22:30, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

Responses: 1) "did not rely on archeological experts to help him decide what to include in his painting" - of course he didn't. He went off the Book of Mormon - that is the whole point - it juxtaposes perfectly the differences between what the Book of Mormon portrays and what archaeology actually shows. 2) "is not now, nor ever was intended as a serious practical study in archeology expertise" - of course not - again this is beside the point. His painting has nothing to do with real world archaeology. It doesn't matter that Frieberg used his own artistic license - the painting was massively popular among mormons and captures very very well the image that most Mormons have about what the Book of Mormon is portraying. And it is these popular ideas that the NWAF and other archaeologists went looking for. Is this not a perfect use of an image to augment a wikipedia article? 3) "No one is looking for ruins or other archaeological evidence that look like this specific image" - completely wrong - this is exactly what they are looking for - and precisely why this image is so perfect for the article. 4) "the image is of symbolic and artistic merit" - it is much more than that - again the whole point - the image is so iconic and overwhelmingly etched in the consciousness of Mormons - you can't ignore the image it represents when you are trying to determine what Mormons think ancient civilization in the Americas was like... and thus, its relevance to archaeological research by Mormons. 5) re: other images - they are nice, but not nearly as iconic, recognizable, and ingrained in Mormon culture, and thus don't have nearly the relevance.--Descartes1979 (talk) 07:04, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

The Christus (statue) is even more iconic in the minds of Mormons, as perhaps the most definitive artistic representations of Jesus for them, but that doesn't mean that a picture of it should be added to Archaeology and the Book of Mormon, saying that Mormons are looking for ancient Mesoamerican representations of someone that looks like it. Ideally, images on this article should be more than a "Have you see this missing <city/deity>?" milk carton style advert, especially when non-free images are involved. -- 208.81.184.4 (talk) 22:55, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Wrong again. An image of that statue would be perfectly relevant and a great addition to the article if there was a serious documented effort to search for archaeological evidence of Jesus in the Americas (which there might be of course, since his alleged advent on the American continent is detailed at length in the BOM - something to look into...). These images add greatly to how easily the average reader consumes this topic and the information in it.--Descartes1979 (talk) 03:03, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Delete this image. It fails on a number of counts. No, attribution (which creates a copyright violation) invalid Fair Use rational. It has no direct context to the subject of the article and is a simple attempt to illustrate the article with non related images. It also fails because it is clearly replaceable with free content and can be replaced with text. The article will not suffer from its loss. It really does not meet our standards of use for this article.--Amadscientist (talk) 04:04, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Oh...and it has no source and while it is used in two articles does not have a rationale for both (if the same rationale for one was just copied it would be copying an invalid rational). This is a clear cut case for deletion.--Amadscientist (talk) 04:07, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Comment As far as I can tell it fails the #1 criteria for use from Wikipedia's non-free content policy on the Archeology page: no free equivalent. As far as I can tell the image is being used to demonstrate walls and/or cities mentioned in the Book of Mormon, and the 208.81 has already linked free alternatives above. ~Adjwilley (talk) 00:28, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
Comment. I agree that its use basically fails the free use requirements in that there are free substitutes that are of equivalent or superior value in illustrating the point. It is a famous work in Mormonism, as are many of Friberg's works, probably because it was published in several editions of the Book of Mormon. But just because it's iconic doesn't necessarily mean it's the only way to illustrate the issue. At the end of the day, it is a copyrighted image and if we have found a viable way not to use it, we shouldn't use it. It might be different if this were an article specifically about Book of Mormon-based works of art. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 09:42, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

PD-Shape? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:49, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

I agree that this is below TOO. There is a duplicate of this file on Commons (Commons:File:DC 101 logo.jpg) so it seems we have to make sure the requirements for CSD#F8 are met and then request deletion of this file. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 21:12, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

F8 deletion is already requested, see the {{NowCommons}} template. We just need to make sure that file links are updated (normally done by User:OgreBot) and that some administrator deletes it. The old revision of the file doesn't satisfy the conditions for F8 as it is not on Commons. --Stefan2 (talk) 21:20, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Then I guess we should simply request a WP:REVDEL for the old revision, though I am not entirely sure which of the criteria at WP:CRD would apply here. Does CRD#1 cover this? -- Toshio Yamaguchi 21:29, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

The old revision doesn't meet any speedy deletion criterion as far as I can see. Normally, administrators tend to delete files like this per F8 and immediately undelete the revisions which don't meet F8. As the file already has been tagged with {{NowCommons}}, it will normally bring the attention of an administrator fairly soon, so we just need to wait a bit. --Stefan2 (talk) 21:33, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

No need for an unfree file. Stamp not essential to the article, it is one of thousands of Christmas stamps and could easily be replaced with a free file. Philafrenzy (talk) 10:01, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

With how it is written presently, there's perhaps a possible non-free UK stamp image to be used to explain how the UK approaches issuing the stamps w/o a direct religious theme but still alluding to the religious nature of the holiday. But that is not sourced one bit that we would need to have at minimum to include. Ideally, it would be a specific stamp design that is discussed in this fashion to show how this is done.

Violates WP:NFCC#10c in all five articles where it is currently being used. Possibly below WP:TOO (essentially a textlogo next to a red square with a white figure trying to hit a tennis ball). Don't know how much of a difference that reflection effect on the square makes. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 05:44, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

The figure of the woman puts this well above the TOO. (Same with the logo on Women's Squash Association). Bu agreed that on the individual tourney pages, the logo is not appropriate. There's no overall article on the general tourney, but all those details are in the above Women's Squash Association, where a logo that is close enough (same graphic and block letters, just different subtitle) is used. --MASEM (t) 15:14, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Violates WP:NFCC#10c in Watson (computer) and 2011 in science. The first violation was created through this page move. I don't know whether that use might be appropriate under one of the points at WP:NFCI. The second use is a violation of WP:NFCC#8. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 12:30, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Watson (computer) is fine with regards to 10c; the rationale is referring to that article back when it had a different name. But I agree it should be removed from 2011 in science. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 12:40, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Actually the rationale for Watson (computer) is valid, the current rationale links to Watson (artificial intelligence software) which redirects to [Watson (computer)]] making the rationale completely valid still. as for 2011 it needs removed. Werieth (talk) 12:46, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

- No, 10c is not met. While a wikilink to the article is not required, 10c explicitly requires the name of the article. The image is not being used on Watson (artificial intelligence software) and a rationale for Watson (computer) is lacking. Yes, I could simply correct the name and wikilink in the rationale, but as long as WP:NFCC still means something it is the duty of those wanting to use this image on that page. The current rationale for Watson (computer) is invalid. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 12:52, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
  - I dont have a link handy but a redirect still meets the requirement for 10c, if you want to debate that, raise the discussion at WT:NFC. You will find very little support for your position. A redirect name is equivalent to the article name. Werieth (talk) 13:12, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

From the image:

Windows Server (TM) Code Name "Longhorn"

Evaluation copy. Build 6001

From its copyright statement:

If you wish to benefit from Microsoft's automatic permission grant, you may not use [...] screens from beta release products or other products that have not been commercially released.

Can someone swap it out for a shot from a 2008 RTM? That would convey the same information and be legally safer. -81.232.114.228 (talk) 11:46, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

First thing is we don't need Microsoft's permission to use the screenshot under a fair use claim (if the use of this image constitutes fair use). This use is probably okay under fair use as its nature seems to be largely transformative. That said, the use in Windows Server 2008 appears to be a violation of WP:NFCC#8, as a removal of the image wouldn't harm a readers overall understanding of the article. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 19:58, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

I'm not going to question whether it violates fair use, but it does violate the licence it claims it's under. Swapping the licence out for {{Non-free software screenshot}} would be a possible solution, but Non-free Microsoft is more liberal than Non-free software and therefore better.

As for removing it, I agree that we don't need two images of Server Core, but I'd rather remove File:Windows 2008 Server Core.png than this one, since this one demonstrates the removed features more clearly. I believe having at least one increases the understanding of what exactly is different in a way text can't convey. -81.232.114.228 (talk) 15:09, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

It's my view that this could be replaced with a free alternative, but I was wanting a wider disscussion about replacability of arieal and streetview style images, hence an NFCR rather than a speedy. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:31, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

Yes, aerial shots can be expected to be freely (in license) recreated, so a free replacement is possible, and this fails NFCC. --MASEM (t) 13:42, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

I personally don't have access to a plane. I think that these images should be allowed to stay unless someone actually has an image to replace it with it. Perhaps some should notify the original uploader, User:Sabreshark? --evrik ^(talk) 17:38, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

evrik you should really review WP:NFCC#1 there are over 600,000 people who are certified pilots in the USA who could take a plane up and get a photo.

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

I'm questioning the contextual significance of the cover art in the article Wedge strategy. Per WP:NFC guidelines on document cover pages, if the cover itself is the subject of sourced discussion in the article, it may be appropriate if placed inline next to the commentary. But the article makes no mention of the cover art. It appears to fail NFCC 8: Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding. I guess the image might be allowable as Cover art from various items, for visual identification only in the context of critical commentary of that item, but I'd like to get more opinions on this.-- Brainy J ~✿~ (talk) 04:18, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

Arguably, you are correct, if it were non-free and used in the present manner, it would fail NFCC. However, while it is marked as non-free, I suspect it fails the threshold of originality. The artistic work is well in the PD, and the rest of the cover is text and a few geometric shapes. As such, it itself is likely non-copyrightable and thus in the PD. Which means it may be used in the article. --MASEM (t) 07:05, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

I cant see the justification for 9 non-free files about a single song. There are 5 covers and 4 sound samples. Werieth (talk) 13:12, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

way overkill. There's no discussion about the way the song sounds critically (billboard placements are not that), and thus any music samples need to go. And just because it was remixed several times does not allow additional album covers to be used. I'm stripping all but the first album out, this is clearly violating NFCC. --MASEM (t) 13:15, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

I cannot see justification for 7 sound samples and 3 non-free images. Werieth (talk) 13:34, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

I'm not 100% sure on the images; showing how the band wanted to image themselves in different periods and pre-2000 likely means we'd have to use non-free. This is not to say these are necessarily good, but they aren't immediately inappropriate. Seven sound samples is. I think there's justification for 3 (just like their band image) to reflect their 3 major periods, but more than that is unnecessary. --MASEM (t) 14:41, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi; I'm a primary contributer on the article. If it's alright, I can go ahead and remove the non-free images (since I added them merely as filler), and condense the sound samples down to the most crucial necessities.Skibz777 (talk) 17:26, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Well, again, I think you might be able to justify one or more of the non-frees as the band's image has chagned over time and it is of course impossible to get photos from the past. But you'll need to make sure that there is discussion about that image (backed by sources) for that purpose. If anything, the zoot suit one (1998) seems appropriate since that's based around the song the band is most famous for. You just need to be able to demonstrate that. The sound samples, however, do need to be reduced. --MASEM (t) 18:00, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

I don't see justification for 6 non-free files. I see 1, possibly two. Werieth (talk) 15:19, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

I think there is reasonable justification for the two different audio samples given the discussion between the album + single version. The sheet music cover is not necessary - its not the same as the cover art for the song and not discussed in text. The alt covers of the Thompsons Twins version are not needed and while I would be quick to remove the main cover, I can see that removing that one image could be a problem, so I'd be okay with leaving it in. --MASEM (t) 15:26, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

Not used in infobox despite rationale saying it is. The Iron Rattler article's infobox uses the CC licensed image File:Iron Rattler's Entrance.JPG which includes the "Iron Rattler" sign, so I'd consider this non-free content to have been replaced by free content.-- Brainy J ~✿~ (talk) 04:09, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

I agree the logo is duplicate, but I think calling the entrance a free image is a problem - its focus is the entryway and sign, and in the US, 3d works of art permanently installed like these do not gain freedom of panorama. So the entryway picture shouldn't be free - but that said, it is a sufficient replacement for the logo in reducing non-free. --MASEM (t) 05:12, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

Currently marked as non-free, citing issues with the image being "the official logo". The image and the logo are probably copyright-ineligible, as they consist merely of four letters and a duplicated geometric shape (akin to the shapes found to be insufficient for WP:TOO). RJaguar3 | u | t 04:17, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

I agree that this is unlikely to meet TOO. Pretty much typefaces with two simple geometric shapes. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 05:32, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

I have moved this image and several similar ones discussed on this page to Commons, so the problem will go away automatically once they have been deleted per WP:CSD#F8. In many cases, it says that someone has reduced the images. It would be nice if the deleting administrator could make sure that the original high-resolution images also are moved to Commons, for example by first undeleting them and then using tools:~magog/oldver.php.

Text logo? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:08, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Unsure about this one. One could argue that the logo only consists of handwriting-style typefaces, which are ineligible for copyright protection. On the other hand, the individual letters don't seem to represent a single uniform typeface, as for example the first e in the word Ventures seems to be more vertically squashed than the second one and thus the whole logo might be regarded as a creative work and thus in this regard maybe eligible for copyright protection. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 20:47, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Delete, but not because it can be replaced by a heraldic description as the two are not exactly the same, but because a heraldic description IS available and can be used to create the public domain image. Here we seem to have a COA possibly created from the 1920's. If this is true it isn't fair use , but public domain.

At the moment it appears that the rationale is not valid as there is no source provided.--Amadscientist (talk) 05:48, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Copyright owner contacted OTRS to request deletion as his watermark was removed. Instead of reverting to the previous version, and as the file has no incoming article links and there are free replacements, I believe it's better to just delete it. ticket:2013070510010255 §FreeRangeFrog^croak 22:37, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

Keep If only we could revoke such but alas he has indeed released this for all use as long as attributed. The copyright was no longer valid for that reason as it should now be CC 3.0 and it should be transferred to commons. He cannot revoke this by seeing a derivative placed over the original upload as the original is still there. policy and guidelines state that such text should be removed.--Amadscientist (talk) 05:40, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Comment The original upload stated that "The copyright holder of this file allows anyone to use it for any purpose, provided that the copyright holder is properly attributed. Redistribution, derivative work, commercial use, and all other use is permitted." which I assume was the point of the watermark. Forgive me if I seem dense but I'm still learning the whole media part. I don't see at what point it was licensed as CC or similar? §FreeRangeFrog^croak 07:21, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Let me see if I understand this correctly. The author has seemingly not contacted OTRS for his other uploads but now has OTRS proof that they are the author of these images and now wants them removed? I am sorry, but it seems that, if the OTRS ticket is indeed verification of proof of authorship, why would we delete it? His written release is exactly the same as CC Attribution 3.0]. The watermarked version is still there and was replaced by a derivative at the upload site which IS proper attribution. The water mark being removed is a must to be used on Wikipedia as he no longer holds the copy right, just attribution right so the watermark is actually inaccurate anyway. Now...if after all this the author would like to consider perhaps a little clean-up of their uploads to Wikipedia this might be a good opportunity if someone wants to take that extra step...if this has been proven to be the author, perhaps they need to start uploading to Commons as their work is likely to be transferred their now if OTRS has verified authorship.--Amadscientist (talk) 11:06, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

By the way, this really complicates any further work used on Wikipedia. While the license does not include fair use dealings, having a Wikimedia account and uploading images he has created suggests that all of his body of work could be made into a free enough license at request, which means that there would be almost no valid fair use rationale for his work on Wikipedia. Just a thought tossed out there.--Amadscientist (talk) 11:20, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Keep: the unwatermarked version is clearly a derivative work, and entirely properly allowed per the original licence as given by the copyright owner. There is really no reason to even discuss it further. ww2censor (talk) 11:22, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Threshold of originality not met, PD-textlogo? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:55, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

I don't think this meets the Schöpfungshöhe to be protectable in Germany and definitely doesn't meet the threshold in the US, so this should be tagged as PD. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 21:16, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

On the other hand, File:Logo FH Wuerzburg Schweinfurt.svg is better, so let's delete this one. --Stefan2 (talk) 21:54, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

The use of this image in Pokémon episodes removed from rotation seems to violate WP:NFCC#8. The fact that this scene depicts a character pointing a gun at Ash's face is easily described by text. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 13:17, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

This one (unlike the inflated false chest one below) is not necessary since its basically "pointing a gun at a character's face" aspect. --MASEM (t) 14:04, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

The use of both of those images in this article seems to violate WP:NFCC#3a. Maybe the second image should be placed in the infobox and the current infobox image be removed. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 13:31, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Actually it's completely valid here. The aspect of blackface of the original design is a subject of sourced discussion, and using the original black-face version of the character as the infobox one is wrong as it is not the way the character is currently portrayed (and while NOTCENSORED, would probably be creating the wrong image here). Both images are reasonable given the depth of discussion on the blackface issues. --MASEM (t) 14:02, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

I agree with this assessment and keeping both images as they are. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 14:08, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

This is a photo of a 19th Century coin, I fail to see how this can be non-free. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:42, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

See Commons:COM:ART#Photograph of an old coin found on the Internet. For photos of coins, we need permission from the photographer, which we don't have here. Tagged as replaceable as someone else could take a photo of the same coin. --Stefan2 (talk) 17:58, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

1924+70 = 1994 , Assuming UK publication, this expired before the 1996 URAA cutoff? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 20:38, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

This was published before 1923, so the book is in the public domain in the United States.

It seems reasonable that the cover art wasn't made by the author of the book but by some other person. {{PD-UK-unknown}} probably works for the book in the UK.

This is a 3D photo of a book, so we need permission from the photographer. Tagged as replaceable fair use as we don't have permission from the photographer. --Stefan2 (talk) 20:55, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

The book is only the subject of a copyrighted image with no author information. The image can be replaced with a free image.--Amadscientist (talk) 06:29, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

This image is apparently considered free at Commons Sfan00 IMG (talk) 16:55, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

I responded and posted it, but I cannot discover where it went!

The person who uploaded this to Commons has uploaded a great many files, all as his/her own work. In many/most cases they are the work of someone else, such as an old encyclopedia illustration, and several paintings of Venice by Canaletto. This person has taken upon themselves to license all these works as if he/she owned them.

This includes this little image of the Collegiata at San Gimignano. It has been uploaded, by me as a non-free, fair-use image, because I do not know whether the photographer is alive or not. It was the only pic available.

However, this same individual has now uploaded a number of photos of the interior. Whether this person actually owns the rights to these photos is another matter. I have left a message about this on Wiki Commons and hope someone deals with the uploader.

The image Collegiate Church interior should be deleted from Commons, not deleted from Wkipedia where it is fair use in just one pertinent article which describes the interior in detail and benefits from having that picture. Amandajm (talk) 09:45, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

According to Commons this image is PD-old? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 16:56, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

I didn't upload it to Commons. Maybe whoever did knows something about the photographer or photograph that I don't. I have no concrete information on the photo, but suspect it was taken no earlier than the 1930's. Since we need a non-free image of this deceased person, I think the portrait she chose for the flyleaf of her books is a good representative choice. Crypticfirefly (talk) 18:50, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
The copy on the Commons was copied from this wiki, and needs to be nominated for deletion as there's no proof the image is PD as claimed. I have gone ahead and done that. -- Diannaa (talk) 01:38, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
