Broken/lost file. The last one in Category:Images affected by the September 2008 image loss bug.

Perhaps it is the same image as on http://www.ceyloncoins.com/ancient_ceylon.php because File:Coin Rectang BullA.JPG looks like the left image on http://www.ceyloncoins.com/images/ancient_ceylon/recbullo.jpg so perhaps it is the right one.

Uploader is no longer active so unless someone can find it now we will probably never find it. MGA73 (talk) 10:18, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

non-free image of a thing we have free images of, except for a 2m difference in length ( If I'm reading the article correctly ?). adds little or nothing to reader's understanding. Image fails WP:NFCC#1 and WP:NFCC#8. Peripitus (Talk) 10:55, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep this image shows exactly where the fuselage plugs are inserted, so therefore adds much to the reader's understanding. Explaining it in text would require the reader to know exactly where the frames are located on the fuselage, something one should not expect of anyone other than maintenance personnel trained on the 747. -- 70.49.127.65 (talk) 04:45, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unfree computer-generated image of a free thing. Can be replaced by a free computer-generated image of the same thing. --Stefan2 (talk) 01:20, 9 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment would modifying a free image require original research? (The location of the plugs are a specific location, to recreate it, you'd need to plaigirize this image, or another one from Boeing, for the exact location, or the resultant image would not be accurate) -- 70.49.127.65 (talk) 05:26, 9 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete image was uploaded before aircraft existed and no free equivalents were available. Free images are now available so no reason to keep. MilborneOne (talk) 19:07, 13 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: DElete - we have no author, date nor good enough sourcing to determine either. The image's licence is definitely incorrect. This is either copyrighted (which needs better sourcing to determine) or public domain (likewise) - Peripitus (Talk) 05:44, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Said to be fair use, as a publicly-displayed artwork, but fair use images on Wikipedia need to meet specific criteria that this probably doesn't meet—as it doesn't add much to the articles it's used in. —innotata 21:48, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This painting is hanging in a museum, and because of that I was under the understanding that photographs of such publicly displayed works of art are considered in the public domain.

As per it's not contributing to the articles it's being used, I disagree. Both articles, Diet of the Cucuteni–Trypillian culture and Settlements of the Cucuteni–Trypillian culture, discuss aspects that this painting visually shows. --Saukkomies ^talk 11:49, 9 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The original painting still is copyright, presumably.

The standard is pretty high: "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." —innotata 14:24, 9 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Although the painting itself is protected under copyright law, a photograph taken of a painting displayed in a public place, such as a museum, may be used however the owner of the photograph wishes. Whether the painting is protected under copyright law is therefore a completely irrelevant point in this discussion.

Wrong (except in Germany and a few other countries, and there only in some public places). —innotata 20:31, 14 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The painting provides a visual description of the written material contained in the article. This enhances the understanding of the reader, and contributes directly to the article's purpose. --Saukkomies ^talk 15:41, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The picture is extremely important to show the way the settlement is constructed around a central building, as well as on terraces above the lower valley-bottom. It also depicts the types of food-stuffs grown and animals reared. THis information, included in the text, is extremely difficult to visualise, the picture helps greatly to show the reader how villages were constructed and lived in. I find it hard to believe that omitting the painting could be anything other than detrimental.

What is the source of the photograph? How old is the painting? Chaosdruid (talk) 01:58, 13 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Chaos - they deleted the file. It's stuff like this why I no longer actively edit Wikipedia; there are just too many jerks who feel like throwing their virtual authority around like this. --Saukkomies ^talk 13:07, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Image fails NFCC #8, does not really add to the article at all. Sven Manguard Wha? 23:36, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Support - Agreed on the article it's in, but I think it might not be bad if used to show CJ Cregg's character - jc37 00:23, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
