I cant see the justification for the 5 non-free files that are being used on this article. Werieth (talk) 19:49, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

There may be some wiggle room, but I do agree least 3, 4 of them need to go.
These three images illustrate the redevelopment of the Center City Business District, a major $500 million dollar project that is currently underway. They give the reader of the article illustrations of the goals of the project, and they are an important illustrative part of that section. The images are fully justified in their use with Fair-Use rationales, and until the time when the project is complete, and free photos can be taken of the completed buildings, they simply can not be replaced.
Their removal would significantly degrade the value of that section. Also, one has to ask what will be the benefit to the reader of the article by their summary removal? Bwmoll3 (talk) 01:21, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
While the text explains the significance of the $500M renovation project, there's nothing to describe the importance of the new building renderings, and ergo there is no contextual significance for these images (failing NFCC#8). There would need to be sources discussion to explain some of the background of the buildings' designs or the like to consider their inclusion. Yes, once the buildings are complete a free image can be used with no question but with non-free we have to be more discriminatory. --MASEM (t) 03:17, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
  • File:AllentownJuly281979.jpg seems completely inappropriate, particularly given that the text says "While Allentown currently has no passenger rail service (the last public rail service, which was part of the Bethlehem-Philadelphia service provided by Conrail under contract with SEPTA, ceased operating in 1979), several of the Allentown-area stations once used for passenger service have been preserved through their current commercial use.", meaning that we can get a free image of one of these still-existing stations to illustrate that point over the non-free image. --MASEM (t) 20:19, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Use of non-free Bible translations

Lots of images of sports uniforms

There is one free image in the history which has sometimes been overwritten by a non-free image, but the uniform contains a complex logo. Can the logo be considered de minimis? Also, in the cases where there is an older revision with a free licence, should we revert to the first revision since that one is more free? Also: Some of the images violate WP:NFCC#8 or other criteria in one or more article. --Stefan2 (talk) 13:56, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

No, a logo shown on a uniform on an image specifically designed to show the uniform would not be de minimis and if the logo was non-free, so would the uniform image. (In contrast, if you were taking a generic shot of a sporting event in progress, which might happen to include shots of the logo/uniforms involved but were not the centerpiece of the photo, that would be acceptable as free ). When we have cases of where the known current logo of the team is non-free even if a previous iteration would have been uncopyrightable/free, we generally accept that we use the latest logo to be accurate to the representation of the team, as it is argued the older, free version misrepresents the current status of the team's logo. --MASEM (t) 14:44, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

This section is intended to list the cases from Wikipedia:Non-free content review/Archive_25#Huge category that might be problematic. I will look at the category later and list those that might need discussion. Feel free to list some as well. I think we should list them under a level 4 heading, like ====[[:File:Whatever.jpg]]====. The sections sorting the discussions by type (screenshot, book cover) use level 3 headings. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 19:06, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

Knowing how the DW articles are organized and simply glancing at names, I suspect most are appropriate single character images used in the infobox in articles about that character (barring something like Romana, the Master, and the Doctor). That's not to say they're all clear, just that I suspect they are in reasonable use on notable character articles. --MASEM (t) 05:55, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Screenshots

Used in Planet of Fire. That article is about one of the serials and not about the characters the image depicts. Might therefore violate WP:NFCC#8. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 06:40, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

By the look of it it shows the Master having caught the companion. That seems a pivotal bit. -mattbuck (Talk) 06:45, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
keep Master is a key villain in this story, plus Peri is a new companion here. 188.221.79.22 (talk) 14:10, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

Used in The Twin Dilemma. That article is about one of the serials and not about the characters the image depicts. Might therefore violate WP:NFCC#8. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 06:43, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

keep This is a famously controversial moment. If needed, expand article to include more detail. 188.221.79.22 (talk) 14:10, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

Violates WP:NFCC#10c in Celestial Toymaker. Appears to violate WP:NFCC#8 in The Celestial Toymaker, as the article is about one of the serials and not specifically about the character the image depicts. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 12:50, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Keep shows main villain, who is unique to this story (on TV) 188.221.79.22 (talk) 14:10, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

Used in The Sensorites. That article is about one of the serials and not about the characters the image depicts. Might therefore violate WP:NFCC#8. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 12:10, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

Comment Does show the main and supporting cast - but A shot of the sensorite face (rather than it's back) would be better [sensorites unique to this story]. 188.221.79.22 (talk) 14:10, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

Used in The Hand of Fear. That article is about a specific episode and not about the character the image depicts. Might therefore violate WP:NFCC#8. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 12:35, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

keep Shows main villain, who is unique to this story. 188.221.79.22 (talk) 14:10, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
There's no discuss about the character's design within the episode article so the image does fail NFCC#8. --MASEM (t) 13:21, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
commment Add it in then. I mean If showing the main villain of a story isn't "useful to the reader", then I'm not sure what is. 188.221.79.22 (talk) 11:54, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Used in Mindwarp. Article is about the episode, not the characters the image depicts. Might therefore violate WP:NFCC#8. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 10:18, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Used in The Mysterious Planet. Image sits in infobox and is not accompanied by any critical commentary. Violates WP:NFCC#8. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 10:25, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Book and CD covers

Used in The Greatest Show in the Galaxy, which is not an article about the book. Might therefore violate WP:NFCC#8. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 06:50, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Not true - the article is about the story, which exists as both a TV show and a book (often the books have significant differences to what was screened on TV). It's the same principle as articles about songs with multiple notable cover versions, where the covers from all the relevant releases are included in a similar fashion. (eg Tainted Love) Bladeboy1889 (talk) 08:32, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
Uhm, no. Per WP:NFCI#1, images of covers "...from various items..." are are acceptable "...for visual identification only in the context of critical commentary of that item (not for identification without critical commentary)." There is no critical commentary about this book in The Greatest Show in the Galaxy#In print. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 09:00, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
Yeah, unless the novelization is notable for its own article, the cover is not required on the episode article. --MASEM (t) 13:32, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Used in The Greatest Show in the Galaxy, which is not an article about the album. Might therefore violate WP:NFCC#8. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 06:56, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Used in The Sensorites, which is not an article about the book. Might therefore violate WP:NFCC#8. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 12:31, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
