File:Iron Man (circa 2018).png (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by NeoBatfreak (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

This image's role of illustrating Iron Man can be achieved with c:File:DSC09902 - Tony Start and Ironman (37081230641).jpg on Commons; thus, it fails WP:NFCC#1. JohnCWiesenthal (talk) 01:45, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Oppose: This article is clearly about the character in comic books, and as such, a main image of the subject should be used, and comics articles typically are allowed at least one non-free file in the infobox alone. The image suggested in question is a wax statue from the Movieland Wax Museum of the Stars (Ontario), so it is far from an accurate depiction of the comics character and closely resembles a recreation of one of the film character's suits instead. A better place for the Commons file would be at Iron Man's armor or Iron Man's armor (Marvel Cinematic Universe), not unilaterally replacing the main comics image.

Oppose: The article is about the comic book character. Ergo, the infobox image should depict Iron Man as he appears in the comics. Unless Marvel decided to release a drawing of the character that's in the public domain - highly doubtful - a copyrighted image has to be used. Anything else, like a wax sculpture, is simply not accurate to the character as he is in the comics. --PanagiotisZois (talk) 12:28, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. I disagree with the nominator's rationale. An image of a wax statue does not accurately represent a comic book character enough to justify the removal of a comic book image. It is not just about the character's design and overall look, but also about how the character looks in the primary medium (with the art style and such). When I am looking up an article on a comic book character, I would expect to see an image of them from an actual comic book. Aoba47 (talk) 18:58, 17 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

File:Beatification of Edmund Rice Banner.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Br.jasoncfc (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

Description says this file is published "October 6, 1996" so it most likely is still copyrighted ―Howard🌽33 10:07, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

File:Dance Again music video Jennifer Lopez Casper Smart.png (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by George Ho (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

This is the second image from the same music video used in the article, and its necessity for understanding the text is not clearly explained. It should be deleted as it does not comply with WP:NFCC#8. Sricsi (talk) 17:14, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

File:Turabian A Manual for Writers Ninth Edition.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Brieftypo (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

Simple text and color combinations should not be above TOO US. JayCubby 18:26, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
