Threshold of originality not met, this is a textlogo of US origin. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:00, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

I disagree; I think there's enough original material in the word "Universal" (images of planets etc) that this one is over the line. -- Diannaa (talk) 20:15, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

If there's any concern, why not add a logo rationale? It can't hurt. - Wikidemon (talk) 14:00, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

This is a simple text cover, so threshold of originality may not have been met. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:07, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Forrest died in 1943, and this looks like an official service photo, so this might be public domain. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:41, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

Probably {{PD-USGov}}. --Stefan2 (talk) 16:50, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

Too weak a source I think to support either of those interpretations strongly enough - I'm not sure I agree that it looks like a service portrait where we'd be prepared to assume it was military; could easily be an informal picture by friends or family. Unless the background is the same as other photographs or something like that?Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 12:17, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

Given the commentary in the linked article, this image was logically taken at a time the building was extant ( prior to 1896). It is thus a pre 1923 image of US origin and could be 'freely' licensed. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:00, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

Depends on date of publication, though. When was it first published? --Stefan2 (talk) 15:15, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

The number of examples of her photography should probably be reduced, per WP:NFCC#3a. Stefan2 (talk) 14:17, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Those images are all reasonable to have in the article in my opinion as all of them are accompanied by sourced commentary referring to the specific image and as such one of them couldn't easily be substituted by the other one. Therefore I don't think there are issues with 3a here. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 15:11, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I would have to agree. They are discussed and sourced, and meet NFCC, and are like sound samples for bands (which 3-4 is not unusual for notable ones). --MASEM (t) 15:17, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Tagged as non-free and violating WP:NFCC#10c in Albanian Kingdom (1939–43). I am not sure whether "The album was printed in many copies, and high quality photographs could be affixed in the appropriate spaces" at the source link of the image means it was published around 1939 or not. If it was indeed published around that time, then it is in the public domain in Albania. Seems to still enjoy copyright protection in the United States. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 13:02, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

I just cannot see justification for 8 non-free files per WP:NFCC#3 and 8. Werieth (talk) 23:29, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Arguably many of those fail TOO (fonts and simple graphics) and should be tagged free. --MASEM (t) 23:31, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

I think the situation is as follows:

File:Me-TV Bay Area.png - The colored frame around the word MeTV probably places this above TOO.

File:Ktzo2085.jpg - Probably above TOO due to the complex grey background.

File:Kofy2094.jpg - Probably below TOO, essentially typefaces.

File:Kofy.jpg - Probably above TOO due to the reflection/3-D effects on the letters.

File:Kbwb logo.png - Probably below TOO, typefaces and simple geometric shapes.

File:KOFY-TV logo.png - Probably above TOO due to the colored background.

File:Yourtv20.PNG - Probably below TOO, essentially typefaces on a monochrome background.

Am I wrong, or is this a user-created SVG based on (but not copied from) the design of the official insignia shown in a photo? Maybe we should ask the uploader what license he wants to release his work under, and tag it with that (for the SVG), along with {{PD-GermanGov}} and {{insignia}} (for the underlying design). Wilhelm Meis (☎ Diskuss | ✍ Beiträge) 16:16, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Sadly, that may not be of any use here, as the uploader has been indef blocked. But since it is only used in one article, only on en.WP, and the patch is at least partially visible in a photo on that page, I guess it won't be a big loss if this image is deleted. I'd say just delete. Wilhelm Meis (☎ Diskuss | ✍ Beiträge) 15:52, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

Comment - I don't think anyone has given any rationale for deletion at all. The question as I understand it is whether the image should be used as a fair-use copyrighted image, or regarded as public domain. Regardless of who made it, I think it falls very far short of the threshold of originality, and should be treated as pd-ineligible. The East German flag is pd, you can't just add a border and three letters and claim it's original copyrighted work. --W. D. Graham 21:10, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

(Apologies in advance if this isn't the right place to bring this query.)
File:Yeezus Kanye West.jpg is currently being used in the main infobox of the article Yeezus, and is being claimed under fair use. However, I'm not entirely sure that it meets the threshold of originality needed for copyright protection – what exactly is being copyrighted? It's certainly not the disc or the jewel case – the orange sticker, then? Personally, I would have thought that this image would be ineligible for copyright, and that we could probably create our own free version in as high a resolution as we'd like, but then IANAL. I welcome any thoughts on the matter. Thanks, A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 15:58, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Agree Nothing unique in the image to warrant copyright (reminds me of when the non-free cover was replaced with a free commons version for We're New Here) If the pink figure in that cover was no issue, neither should the orange sticker here. Dan56 (talk) 23:29, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
Speedily delete per WP:CSD#F7. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 20:43, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
Keep/Disagree per WP:FURE due to this image currently being used as the cover artwork for the album on digital retailers (iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, etc.). The specific way the jewel case is presented in the image is being copyrighted. Dfnj123 (talk) 06:46, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

I am confused. Is the cover art this specific image or is it just the sticker? In the former case, it would definitely be acceptable. In the latter case, I do not see what would be eligible for copyright protection in the cover and thus this image would violate WP:NFCC#1. -- Toshio Yamaguchi 14:45, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

On digital retailers the specific image is used as the cover art for the album, and thus as you pointed out is acceptable.Dfnj123 (talk) 22:12, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

But surely, as Toshio points out, it's entirely replaceable? I could create a scan of my copy of the album and licence it under CC-BY-SA 3.0, and we'd have no need for this fair use image at all – the free use one would convey exactly the same information. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 23:29, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Toshio also pointed out that the image should be acceptable being labeled as non-free content under the current circumstances since it is the specific image, not the individual items in the image, being claimed to be eligible for copyright. Also, I worry that a scan would not adequately "convey exactly the same information" due to the very specific manner the image of the jewel case is captured in the official cover art. Dfnj123 (talk) 03:51, 14 August 2013 (UTC)

Good point, but that's kind of what's confusing me – how can we have discussions about the "official cover art" when, according to our article, Yeezus has "no album artwork"? A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 22:56, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

To be fair that is in a section of the article that is specifically referring to the packaging of the physical cd copies of the album. There should probably be a clarification somewhere in the article to explain that while physical copies of the album have no cover art, "the image in question" of the album's packaging was used as cover art on digital retailers and for promotional reasons. Just to throw out there, Steal This Album! and True Magic are two other examples of albums in which physical cd copies of the albums were released in jewel cases with no cover art. Both of those albums currently use images from digital retailers as cover art in their articles. Both of those images are labeled as "non-free media". I fail to understand how the situation with Yeezus and File:Yeezus Kanye West.jpg differ from those two albums. Dfnj123 (talk) 05:27, 16 August 2013 (UTC)

Quesion: If I went our to buy a physical copy of this CD, is this how I would see it in the store, that is, not that image printing on the cover, but effectively a semi-opaque case, an unlabeled CD, and an orange sticker on the side? (So that the digital art is mimicking this?). Calling this digital version the "cover art", assuming that the physical copies are the same, I would argue the image fails the threshold of originality, so the image can be marked free. --MASEM (t) 14:28, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Yes to your question (although I think the case would be closer to transparent rather than semi-opaque). A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 23:44, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Keep as non-free media. While a good case can be made for the cover design not satisfying the threshold of originality it is rather obvious that the minimalism of the design itself is an artistic statement. In light of the high profile nature of this album and the likelihood of the record company/artist claiming copyright on this design I think it is better to err on the conservative assertion that file is an irreplaceable non-free media. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 18:32, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
Keep. User:Anetode makes a very good point. The design is like this for a reason, an artistic concept, and some might even argue that the lettering on the CD, the way the light breaks on the CD's surface in this official photo, the placement of the sticker, etc, are all part of this concept and therefore their combination passes the treshold of originality. Keeping the current license and rationale makes perfect sense to me. Yintan 11:31, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Is there really a need for all 8 non-free files? Werieth (talk) 12:41, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

I think we need to have a wider discussion on the use of non-free media on fictional character articles that span multiple generations/media formats or with long protracted stories. Clearly one for identification (if the character is notable) is reasonable, but any beyond that need to rely on free images, or have better contextual significance than just "here's this version" or "here's a image of a plot element" and then dwelling into the fictional details. (mind you, in the comics world, the whole DC + Marvel reboot elements which basically have created brand new versions of the characters doesn't help, but that's part of the discussion to have). --MASEM (t) 13:02, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

I am really uncertain here. The character looks very different on several of the images. If a character has one visual appearance during one decade and a very different visual appearance during another decade, then it may be appropriate to show both of the visual appearances, provided that both of them are notable. I'm guessing that there may be room for multiple images here but not for all of them. --Stefan2 (talk) 14:58, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

I've limited it to the 5 main appearances for every version (basically different characters with the same name, not merely redesigns or art style changes). The old game version's pic wasn't really necessery for two reasons, that is for being based on the original comic character and actually not being all that representative for how Karai looks in the game itself (and there she looks like a man). --Niemti (talk) 18:28, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

I really cant see justification for 15 non-free files Werieth (talk) 13:28, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

Agreed. Suggest for reduction:

The first newspaper appearance can be used for the infobox (if there is not a free logo (in PD-textlogo approach) that could be used. Irregardless, this image is fine.
The cast image can be moved to the characters, eliminating the 4 individual character shots.
The rhino comic is fine due to discussion about it.
The Bohlwinkle image is absolutely unnecessary to understand the name change issue.
We have an article on the Golden Fleece movie, not needed here.
The stage production image doesn't help to understand beyond saying there was a stage production. Remove here.
The stamp page is actually good since it gives us a montage of the styles over the years under a single copyright, and shows the importance of the characters as to be made stamps.
We have an article on Breaking Free, no image needed here for that.
For the Tintin Alph-art stuff, we have an article on that artist, with a representative sample there, so the book cover is unnecessary.
The internal museum exhibit photo (which likely has to be non-free) doesn't aid beyond the text of explaining there was an exhibit, in particular as there's no obvious TinTin article visible.
On the other hand, the external one, that includes the Tintin image on the side, does help better than the internal.

On my count, that's 10 possible removals to leave 5. --MASEM (t) 18:14, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

Fellow editors, please explain your aversion to illustrations? The featured article is illustrated as required per WP:FA?. WP:NFCC is being met in every case: Each non-free illustration's justification is made on each file description page. The Tintin cast image been in this article's infobox undisturbed for approximately six years. I personally sought and received permission to use many of the files, such as those appearing in the Theatre and Exhibition sections. In each case, the illustrations are appropriate for a featured article, and certainly make a long article more pleasant to read. If you wish, I will remove the Breaking Free illustration as I was thinking we need only one, not two images there. Thank-you for your consideration. Prhartcom (talk) 07:13, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

Some suggested reductions:

Section "Characters": all listed characters have their own articles and are illustrated there. Remove all images from this section.
Tintin and the Golden Fleece poster: The film has its own article so there is no need to have this image here too.
Tintin postage stamps: Remove here and add to Tintin postage stamps instead.
Yves Rodier cover: Not needed here. If fr:Tintin et l'Alph-Art (Yves Rodier) is translated to English, then the image can be used there, but it is unclear if we need it even in Tintin and Alph-Art.
Centre Pompidou exhibition photo: I'm not convinced that we need an unfree photo of an exhibition to understand that there are exhibitions. You barely see anything anyway.
User:Masem suggested moving the Soviet Union image to the infobox, but this doesn't seem to be a good idea. In 1930, he looked very different to how people remember him today. Either use File:Adventures of Tintin Cast.png or File:Tintin and Snowy.png, I think. They provide a more common appearance. --Stefan2 (talk) 23:08, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

I have complied with these demands to remove illustrations from the article.

Advice please: When I requested permission from the photographer of the Exhibition photo, his kind email response was, "Hi Prhartcom, Sure, you're welcome to it. Best, Matthias." Out of respect for him, I labeled his work as non-free and gave him copyright privilege, but perhaps I should have taken him up on his implicit offer to label it as a free image. Perhaps there is still time for me to do that. Thoughts?

Could someone please help me understand, as I requested above, to "please explain" why were are doing this, as WP:FA? requires illustrations and WP:NFCC is being met in every case. Thank-you in advance for answering.

Text logo. Note that all three yellow "E's" match. Levdr1lp / talk 22:28, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Certainly PD-textlogo (removes that issue from the splotted logo from before). --MASEM (t) 23:05, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

@Masem: This is not the current logo. I uploaded a plain white background version of File:Extreme Talk logo.png which Diannaa transferred to the Commons. Levdr1lp / talk 23:12, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Oh sure, I'm just saying from the previous discussion on the issue of the splotches if that pushed it past originality, there's very little doubt that we have that situation here. --MASEM (t) 23:15, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Thought so. Thanks for the input. Levdr1lp / talk 23:18, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Text logo? Unsure about word balloon. Levdr1lp / talk 22:57, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

It's a clean-outline balloon, so too simple, PD-textlogo. --MASEM (t) 23:07, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

These images are ultimately from a US Government source, thusly a free replacement could be generated from the relevant data source. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:44, 12 October 2013 (UTC)

I do note the uploader mentions the problem with accessing the PD data due to the US gov shutdown in that rationale. I'm sure that's not going to last indefinitely so I would agree that it could be replaced, just not immediately. --MASEM (t) 13:47, 12 October 2013 (UTC)

Tagged as replaceable as it could be replaced as soon as the government shutdown ends. --Stefan2 (talk) 09:16, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

Is this image too simple to be copyrighted? --George Ho (talk) 17:56, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Yes, qualifies as PD-text. --MASEM (t) 18:00, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
