XFD backlog V Apr May Jun Jul Total CfD 0 0 0 66 66 TfD 0 0 1 10 11 MfD 0 0 0 0 0 FfD 0 0 1 12 13 RfD 0 0 0 13 13 AfD 0 0 0 2 2 Files for discussion (FfD) is for listing images and other media files which may be unneeded or have either free content or non-free content usage concerns. Files that have been listed here for more than 7 days are eligible for either deletion or removal from pages if either a consensus to do so has been reached or the nominator specifically requests deletion or removal and no objections are raised. To quote the non-free content criteria, "it is the duty of users seeking to include or retain content to provide a valid rationale; those seeking to remove or delete it are not required to show that one cannot be created." For undeletion requests, first contact the administrator who deleted the file. If you are unable to resolve the issue with that administrator, the matter should be brought to deletion review.

What not to list here For concerns not listed below, if a deletion is uncontroversial, do not use this process. Instead tag a file with {{subst:prod}}. However, if the template is removed, please do not reinsert it; list the file for deletion then. For speedy deletion candidates as well, do not use this page; instead use one of the speedy deletion templates. See the criteria for speedy deletion. These are: duplicates (where both files are on Wikipedia), thumbnails, broken files, non-existent files, non-commercial, "by permission" files and files which are not an image, sound file or video clip and have no encyclopedic use. Files that have no source, have an unknown copyright, are unused or replaceable non-free, or are non-free without rationale can be marked so that they will be deleted after a week, and should not be listed on this page. Add one of the following to the file page: {{subst:nsd}} if a file has no source indicated. {{subst:nld}} if a file has a source but no licensing information. {{subst:orfud}} if a file has a non-free copyright template but isn't used in any articles. {{subst:rfu}} if a file has a non-free copyright template but could be replaced by a free file. {{subst:dfu|reason}} if a file has a non-free copyright template but the rationale isn't sufficient or is disputed. {{subst:nrd}} if a file has no non-free use rationale. Redundant or duplicate files do not have to be listed here. Please use {{db-f1|Full name of file excluding the "File:" prefix}} for speedy deletion if the other file is on Wikipedia, not on Commons {{now commons|File:NEW FILENAME}} if the file now exists on Commons, or {{now commons}} for files with the same name on Commons. (Don't nominate protected images, they are usually locally uploaded and protected since they are used in an interface message or in a highly used template, thus they are high-risk.) For blatant copyright infringements, use speedy deletion by tagging the file {{db-f9}}. If a file is listed as public domain or under a free license but lacks verification of this (either by a VRT ticket number or a notice on the source website), tag it as {{subst:npd}}. Files that are hosted on Wikimedia Commons cannot be deleted via this process. Please use the Commons deletion page instead. Description pages with no local file, even though they are in the file namespace, should not be listed here. Redirects should be treated as in any other namespace: if no speedy deletion criteria apply, they should be listed at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion. Local description pages with no associated file are speedy-deletable under criterion G8; use {{db-imagepage}}. Local description pages for files hosted on Commons are usually speedy-deletable under criterion F2 if there is no content relevant to Wikipedia; use {{db-fpcfail}}. Any other local description pages for files hosted on Commons should be listed at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion. If a file is appropriately licensed and could be usable elsewhere, consider copying it to the Wikimedia Commons instead of listing it for deletion. Once copied to the Commons, it is eligible for speedy deletion per criterion 8 for files. If you are the uploader of the image, tag it with {{db-author}}.

Instructions for listing files for discussion Use Twinkle. If you can't, follow these steps to do manually: 1 Edit the file page. Add {{Ffd|log=2025 July 29}} to the file page. 2 Create its FfD subsection. Follow this edit link and list the file using {{subst:Ffd2|File_name.ext|uploader=|reason=}} ~~~~ Leave the subject heading blank. If the file has been replaced by another file, name the file that replaced it in your reason for deletion. Refer below for a list of other common reasons. For listing additional files with the same reason, edit the first file section and use {{subst:Ffd2a|File_name.ext|Uploader=}} for each additional file. You may use this tool to quickly generate Ffd2a listings. Also, add {{Ffd|log=2025 July 29}} to the top of the file page of each file other than the first one nominated. 3 Give due notice. Inform the uploader by adding a message to their talk page using {{subst:Ffd notice|File_name.ext}} Remember to replace "File_name.ext" with the name of the image or media For multiple images by the same user, use {{subst:Ffd notice multi|First_file.ext|Second_file.ext|Third_file.ext}} ~~~~ (can handle up to 26) If the image is in use, also consider adding {{FFDC|File_name.ext|log=2025 July 29}} to the caption(s), or adding a notice to the article talk pages. Consider also notifying relevant WikiProjects of the discussion. State the reasons why the file should be deleted, removed, or altered. Also, state what specific action should be taken, preferably in bold text; this allows discussion participants and closers to better understand the purpose of the nomination. Some examples of nomination statements include: Delete. Orphaned with no foreseeable encyclopedic usage. Delete. Replaced by File:FILE2. Free (public domain) file may actually be eligible for copyright in the United States. This photograph was actually first published in 1932, not 1926. Remove from ARTICLE1 and ARTICLE2. The file only meets WP:NFCC#8 with its use in ARTICLE3. Non-free file may actually be free. This logo does not seem to meet the threshold of originality to be eligible for copyright in the United States and should actually be tagged free using {{PD-logo}}. Examples of what files you may request for discussion, deletion or change here: Obsolete – The file has been replaced by a better version. Orphan – The file is not used on any pages in Wikipedia. Unencyclopedic – The file doesn't seem likely to be useful in any Wikimedia project. Low quality – The file is of an extremely low resolution, distorted, or has other physical image quality concerns. Copyright violation – The file might be used in violation of copyright. Possibly unfree – The file is claimed as a freely licensed content, but may actually be protected by copyright in either the United States or its country of origin. NFCC violation – The file is used under a claim of fair use but does not meet the requirements. Disputed copyright status – There is a disagreement between editors over the copyright status of a file. This includes, but is not limited to disputes about whether a file is: too simple for fair use, using the correct license tags, or accurately described by its description page. Wrongly claimed as own – The file is under a self license, but the information on the file description pages suggests otherwise. These are not the only "valid" reasons to discuss a file. Any properly explained reason can be used. The above list comprises the most common and uncontroversial ones. If you remove a file from an article, list the article from which you removed it so there can be community review of whether the file should be deleted. This is necessary because file pages do not remember the articles on which the file were previously used. If you have general questions about a file and/or its copyright status, then please start a new thread at Media Copyright Questions.

Instructions for discussion participation

In responding to the deletion nomination, consider adding your post in the format
* '''View''' - Reasoning ... -- ~~~~
where "Delete", "Keep", "Comment", or something else may replace "View". In posting their reasoning, many editors use abbreviations and cite to the following:

• Wikipedia:NFCC#1 – Free equivalent is/is not available
• Wikipedia:NFCC#8 – Significance
• Wikipedia:Non-free content#Images 2 – Unacceptable image use

Remember that polling is not a substitute for discussion. Wikipedia's primary method of determining consensus is through editing and discussion, not voting. Although editors occasionally use straw polls in an attempt to test for consensus, polls or surveys sometimes impede rather than assist discussion. They should be used with caution, and are no more binding than any other consensus decision.

Also remember that if you believe that an image is potentially useful for other projects and should be moved to Wikimedia Commons, in lieu of responding '''Move to Commons''', you can move it there yourself. See Wikipedia:Moving files to the Commons for instructions.

Instructions for closing discussions

Nominations should be processed for closing after being listed for 7 days following the steps here.

I uploaded an artwork for a digital release of The Great British Bake Off series 4. Nonetheless, I have kept thinking that a cast photo would be better representation of the topic. This all comes down to which image is more preferable: this artwork (or cover art?) I'm nominating, or the cast photo. Well, should use this image by default if "no consensus" then.

The other copy of the title card (File:Big Brother USA 21 Logo.png) was PRODded and deleted without contest. The newest copy still is one of generic title cards, is similar to the other title card (File:BB19US Logo.png) used in Big Brother 19 (American season), and doesn't help readers contextually understand Big Brother 21 (American season). Thus, it may still fail WP:NFCC#8. George Ho (talk) 21:53, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Which Logo should be used then? These are taken from CBS and used only in season 21. This clearly is a logo for the season and even can be used in the caption that states that. It even makes a campier/wood 'Big Brother' in the logo to go with the camp theme of the summer. JoyfullySmile (talk) 04:30, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

File:Henri Huet, LIFE cover, 110266.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Cactus.man (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

Replaceable with c:File:Life magazine – Jaws 45th anniversary issue (2020-06-19).jpg or other covers in c:CAT:Covers of LIFE magazine per WP:NFCC#1 (unless someone can prove that Henri Huet published the photograph without a valid copyright notice). JohnCWiesenthal (talk) 01:42, 16 July 2025 (UTC)

• Keep The suggested replacement file is of a 2020 cover of ife Magazine commemorating the 45th anniversary of the movie Jaws. It has no relation to the original image whatsoever so is not a suitable replacement. In particular, the subject matter of the suggested replacement is entirely inappropriate for use in the Henri Huet article. Cactus.man ✍ 10:23, 16 July 2025 (UTC)

  I was specifically referring to the infobox at Life (magazine), not the gallery at Henri Huet § Work. I admit I did not see the fair use rationale for the Henri Huet article when I nominated the file. JohnCWiesenthal (talk) 13:21, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

  @ JohnCWiesenthal I agree, it would be a sitable substitute for use in the infobox at Life (magazine), but Keep the file (not delete it) because the fair use rationale for use in Henri Huet remains valid. Cactus.man ✍ 15:29, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

This file was marked as fair use with URAA restored copyright. But because this image was published in 1929 and URAA copyright expired, that means that it’s now in US PD and can be moved to Commons. Michalg95 (talk) 07:38, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

This drawing was still copyrighted in Canada in 1996; it didn't lose its copyright protection until 1947 1997 (the rule is the year of the creator's death + 50, not just 50 years). {{PD-URAA}} requires it to be PD by 1996.

File:N.F.-Board logo.svg

File:N.F.-Board logo.svg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Kxeon (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

I just found that File:Logo N.F.-Board.png exists on Wikicommons, uploaded by Jean Luc-Kit himself in 2020. So that means if we use that instead of this SVG version, we know there's not a copyright violation here. However, whether or not this complies with WP:NFCC§1:

Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available, or could be created, that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose.

may be uncertain, and may need to be discussed. The reason that is so, is because of WP:NFC§Multiple restrictions:

For a vector image (i.e. SVG) of a non-free logo or other design, US law is not clear as to whether the vectorisation of the logo has its own copyright which exists in addition to any copyright on the actual logo. To avoid this uncertainty, editors who upload vector images of non-free logos should use a vector image that was produced by the copyright holder of the logo and should not use a vector image from a site such as seeklogo.com or Brands of the World where the vectorisation of a logo may have been done without authorization from the logo's copyright holder. If an editor bases a vectorisation they did by themself from a free image, they should indicate the source image so that freeness can be confirmed, and release their contribution (the labour of converting to vectors) under a free license to help with the aforementioned ambiguity.

So should it be deleted in accordance with this, to avoid any uncertainty; or should it acquire the copyright of the version uploaded by Kit, and continue to be used here? wikipedia-kxeon  mailbox 18:59, 19 June 2025 (UTC)

• Delete I see no reason the .png file shouldn't be used in lieu of a lower res .svg Buffs (talk) 20:58, 19 June 2025 (UTC)

  It's a vectorisation of a image that is, in most circumstances only available in PNG/JPG form, and of really low resolution. I ended up getting caught up in other things so I couldn't respond until 23:00; but if need be, this SVG could be edited to basically copy the PNG that Kit uploaded, and could, possibly, inherently be called a superior version to the PNG version of which Kit had uploaded. wikipedia-kxeon  mailbox 03:57, 20 June 2025 (UTC)

  The point is that this is a derivative work. It cannot obtain new copyright without substantial changes. It is not labeled correctly. Buffs (talk) 16:45, 20 June 2025 (UTC)

• The article is using 2 non-free images, and thus violating WP:NFCC#3- minimal number of non-free items. Either File:N.F.-Board logo.svg or File:NF-Board.png (the non-free version on en.Wikipedia) must therefore be removed and deleted to comply with NFCC. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:47, 20 June 2025 (UTC)

  Based on this upload, it appears the images are mislabeled and are not non-free. Buffs (talk) 16:43, 20 June 2025 (UTC)

Emailed the N.F.-Board to ask about the copyright status on Wikicommons. wikipedia-kxeon  mailbox 22:01, 21 June 2025 (UTC)

@Kxeon: Did you get a response? * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 18:26, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

Doesn't seem like they responded to my mail about the copyright status of the logo:

Vouliez-vous dire de télécharger votre logo sur Wikicommons sous la licence CC BY-SA 4.0 ? Les termes de la licence sont au bas de cet e-mail.

Discussion sur Wikicommons à propos des fichiers : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Files_for_discussion/2025_June_19#File:N.F.-Board_logo.svg

I then went on to paste the entire CC BY-SA 4.0 license into the email...

Drats. Worth a shot though, no? kxeon  talk 19:41, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

I should have said this in the message above, but if the N.F.-Board just never responded then maybe they might have intended in some way to label it as they did. Which means the image may not be labeled correctly after all and it may be able to stay. kxeon  talk 22:46, 14 July 2025 (UTC)

• People find random files and falsely upload them to Commons as CC own work all the time. KIT Jean-Luc almost certainly does not own the rights to this logo.

File:The Amazing Race 35 logo.jpg

File:The Amazing Race 35 logo.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Xoruz (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

De-PRODded without rationale, so listing the image here. Honestly, even if used to promote or identify The Amazing Race 35, I still don't see "thirty-fifth", "35th", "35", or "thirty-five" anywhere in the artwork. I previously challenged other (generic) title cards used in Big Brother American season articles (only to see them reused... but then recently replaced). Never have I imagined that such artworks using merely the series logo without any logo additions/modifications would be used in Amazing Race-related season articles. I cannot fathom why this artwork contextually signifies the specific TV season in question. George Ho (talk) 00:51, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

File:ITunes screenshot of Cuck leak.png (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Ezlo Jeslan (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

The album contents are already listed in In a Perfect World (Kanye West album), which both the listing and the section of the image containing them are probably not copyrightable.

Secondly, the image present as the substitute album cover is also textually described in the article. It could be placed into a new file, but the article only briefly mentions that image of West. Xeroctic (talk) 19:36, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

Mugshot photo of the suspect/perpetrator not contextually significant to the murder case overall in question. No proof that such omission would affect the understanding, meaning photo may be unnecessary. George Ho (talk) 19:48, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

Weak keep. The perpetrator is clearly contextually significant to the murder in question because he is the reason it happened (I don't see how the murderer would possibly lack significance to the murder), so looking at him enhances the article as much as any biographical / identification photo does. Given there are several paragraphs in the article as it is now about his relationship to the victim and the notability seems to stem from his past actions and how overlooking that led to the crime that seems of reasonable relevance. Weak keep because I haven't looked into this case in depth. PARAKANYAA (talk) 12:46, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

File:Woolly mouse Colossal Bioscience.png

File:Woolly mouse Colossal Bioscience.png (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by AimanAbir18plus (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

I believe this file does not pass the non-free use guidelines. This breed of mouse currently exists, so a free photo can presumably be taken. Thus, this photo is not non-replaceable. ArtemisiaGentileschiFan (talk) 22:43, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

Since the breed is proprietary to Colossal Biosciences and it is not distributed outside the company, it is unlikely that any free photos can be taken by anyone other than someone working for the company. The non-free criteria are probably incorrect here though since this is not a screenshot of a website or software, and "an animal that needs representation" isn't sufficient to meet #1. I would delete because it's possible for someone some day to take a picture of this breed. -- Reconrabbit 13:20, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

No OTRS ticket to verify release; the LA Library website states that all website contents are under an all-rights-reserved license. —C.Fred (talk) 17:48, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

I don't quite understand all the red tape here with this image. It was approved months ago and LA County Library has authorized me to use it for this post. Additionally, it was set for the public domain. If this is all invalid for some reason, can I get some help getting this image passed? MJR212 (talk) 17:53, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

@MJR212 Where on the LACL website does it say that this image is in the public domain? —C.Fred (talk) 17:56, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

It was authorized for this use via email from the LACL marketing director. If this is not good enough, what else can be done? MJR212 (talk) 18:01, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

That's what I said about the OTRS ticket: I don't see where a volunteer has received the email and noted that the donation is accepted. —C.Fred (talk) 18:02, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

should I copy in the email here then? MJR212 (talk) 23:33, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

Please also see the file history for the image where it says plainly that This work has been released into the public domain by its author, LA County Library. This applies worldwide.

In case this is not legally possible:

LA County Library grants any entity the right to use this work for any purpose, without any conditions, unless such conditions are required by law. MJR212 (talk) 23:37, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

@MJR212 Third parties cannot donate the work on the rightsholder's behalf, nor can we accept a third-party's copy of an email. The donation would need to come directly from LACL; they would need to email the Volunteer Response Team directly. —C.Fred (talk) 00:29, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

ok, what about this:

@MJR212 There is no way to verify that claim. The license at the library website contradicts that claim. —C.Fred (talk) 00:50, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

Look, what do I need to do to get this image back up? I promised my client (the Library) I would post this for them and have ample proof. This image was up for months until today for some reason. I'm just trying to do my job here--nothing dishonest, and I honestly don't know why this is so difficult. I went through all the hoops already I thought. MJR212 (talk) 00:58, 29 July 2025 (UTC)
