Cast images removed?

edit

@Amaury:: In this edit, you removed the main cast images (reproduced below) with the edit comment Not how used.. Can you explain, please? --GRuban (talk) 16:26, 12 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

The images themselves are free-use so they can be used anywhere where they might add value. They are images of the actors themselves, not the characters, and better fit in the actor articles if they exist. What we generally want in show articles is cast in character images which are copyrighted by the production so used under fair use rules. What we would like most is a group picture of the main characters which could be a screenshot or promo picture with the appropriate NFUR for use in this article. That said, there is no real restriction on using those images in this article if editorial consensus is that they add value and I think they do. Most of the actors listed do not have articles and this does give the physical appearance of the actors themselves dressed in character. If they are used they need better captions to identify both the actor and character portrayed and a bit more context than just a date. Geraldo Perez (talk) 18:13, 12 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Good point. They are taken on the set of the show, during interviews with the actors, who are presumably dressed as their characters; if there isn't repeated objection from Amaury or others I'll restore them and add that to the caption of the gallery. --GRuban (talk) 19:06, 12 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Amaury: I see you've edited quite a bit in the last few days, want to respond? --GRuban (talk) 03:48, 14 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
As Amaury is actively editing, but not responding to the pings, I have to assume they don't care, so will restore. --GRuban (talk) 21:09, 15 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
As mentioned above, we typically want a group picture. See Dog with a Blog. If you can find something like that for this series, that would be preferred. Amaury (talk | contribs) 21:13, 15 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for responding! I see the point, but there is another strong argument that we want free images, which these are. In any case, I hope we can all agree that having some cast images are better than none? --GRuban (talk) 21:52, 15 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
