  • The source of this image is unclear, as is its copyright status. This could clearly be replaced with a screen cap of the music video in question, as done with the Justify my Love video. — Ejfetters 03:04, 7 August 2007 (UTC).
  • Just what exactly would make the source info more "clear"? What is unclear about this - © Warner Bros. 1992 - with regards to copyright status? I am puzzled. -- Mrlopez2681 07:26, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just saying Copyright 1992 Warner Bros does not mean thats correct. We should have to have concrete proof of the original source and copyright holder of the image, and permission to use it here. Copyright Warner Bros, looks like a photographer, are you sure the photographer that took the images does not hold any rights to it? Again, I think we should have a clear concrete source and copyright holder on this, and permission to publish it here in Wikipedia. A screen cap from the music video, as done in countless music videos throughout Wikipedia would be no less satisfactory, and would actually be an image of the subject in question, instead of promotional material for the subject. Also, the video will always remain, the clear original source and copyright holder(s) will always be verifiable. Ejfetters 09:01, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
  • We have a clear copyright source and owner. This is clearly identified in the image as a promotional press card, (C) Warner Bros. Records 1992. That is entirely likely to be the case. We don't need "permission to publish it here" -- we're claiming fair use, not a licence. But I am not sure a gallery of 7 such images on Erotica (album) can be justified. No problem with the single image on Madonna's controversies though. Jheald 11:49, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree the images on the Erotica album page aren't necessary, didn't know about them, and nominated them as well. A video screencap can more easily visualize what the subject is talking about, than an publicity image for the video/album. Use a screencap instead. Ejfetters 03:13, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

  • I don't know. It's a pretty great image. Surely some sort of fair use can be written for it? --Knulclunk 04:59, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have added an extremely detailed explanation as to the source of poster and the image of it. It must be noted that a cover of the book is already uploaded onto wikipedia and used in the article concerning Madonna's book Sex. Verifying the copyright status of this poster is not difficult at all. It is a copyright of Warner Books, as is the book Sex. -- Mrlopez2681 07:17, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete What purpose does the poster serve that the cover of the book cannot? The cover of the book is the actual subject in question, this is just an advertisement for the book, and nothing controversial about this is listed. Furthermore, the cover of the book would always be there, always be verifiable source material, and copyright status. The clear original source of this poster is unknown. The clear original source of the book cover is. And as you already said, if the book cover is already uploaded to wikipedia, why do we need the poster. Whether or not it is a good image does not constitute keeping the image. Ejfetters 08:56, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
    • Furthermore, you stated in the fair use rationale that since the poster is your property, the images on it are your property too, this is incorrect. You can buy a copyrighted poster, but the image is not yours to publish however you want. You can buy a CD, but the music is not yours to publish or broadcast at your discression. I think what we need is permission from the copyright holder of the poster to use it in this page. Ejfetters 08:58, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. We're claiming fair use. Fair use is what you can do without the publisher's permission. The subject matter of the article Madonna's controversies is the controversies in Madonna's image and self-marketing. The use of this image, designed to be displayed poster-sized at point of sale in bookshops, is highly appropriate to increase the reader's understanding by illustrating exactly how Madonna's image was being put over -- in a much more direct way than the significantly more tame cover of the book. Its use is encyclopedic, and clearly in balance with NFCC #2. Clearly also justified on Sex (book). -- Jheald 12:10, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • KEEP The article discusses more than just the book. The overly complicated source info isnt verifiable? (BTW - It was suggested above that the source info was unclear, so I gave an explanation that is VERY clear) In what way would my source info be any more or less verifiable than if I were to make a scan of the book cover? The same people who designed and created the book designed and created the poster. Jheald's explanation is right on the money.

So what exactly do you want as CLEAR VERIFIABLE SOURCE INFORMATION?' The person who designed the poster? The photographer? Im really not understanding what the problem is here - this debate is ridiculous. Mrlopez2681 03:12, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

    • Yes and yes. If they hold the copyright. You said your source info is very clear, all it elaborates on is that YOU own the poster, and the image, like I said before, you do not own the images on it, in no way more than I own the music on a CD I own, or the motion picture on a DVD I own.

  • First - image is hardly worth for the page of the subject, surely someone can go on Flickr per say and find an image to use, I searched there and found plenty images of the band. Second, it is, in the user's own words, a "copy" of a copyrighted single, this seems like a copyright violation. — Ejfetters 09:11, 7 August 2007 (UTC).
Oppose. Just because you don't think it is worth it is not a reason for deletion. And the creator says it is "based on" another image, NOT copied. Creators are inspired by each other all the time. That doesn't equal a copyvio.--Wehwalt 09:39, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Now orphaned, and a better replacement (a photograph rather than a non-notable "caricature") can certainly be (and has been?) found. I also agree with emphasis that the copyright status is dubious. It's clearly a derivative work, and it might be fair use if we're lucky, and it certainly can't be put under a GNU license. EldKatt (Talk) 13:25, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep. Sure the image isn't great, but it was only put there as a temporary filler as everything we try gets deleted instantaneously. We can not get a free image as the band has not been on tour for a whole year and a half. The only free images available are those with only a couple of the band members. And as for it being based off something, what's wrong with that? It's not like I ran the image through a filter. I actually took time to redraw it, and artists and musicians do that all the time. This deletion is absolutely ridiculous. — Ian Lee (Talk) 18:33, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Please read up on copyright law. Googling "derivative work" and "fair use" is a good start. EldKatt (Talk) 20:03, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • Exactly! My version is "majorly" different from the original in terms of color, shape, and style. It qualifies to be new work in it of itself. — Ian Lee (Talk) 20:46, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
        • But you started from the original, making it a derivative work and therefore illegal because you don't have the express permission of the copyright holder. howcheng {chat} 21:59, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
          • No! It's okay if you "majorly" alter it. And I'm positive that my redrawing is much more altered than this picture which is in the commons! — Ian Lee (Talk) 23:47, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
            • Just replace it with a free use image, even if it isn't the best. It doesn't need a placeholder, there are plenty of biographical articles without "placeholder" drawn images. If a free use photo of the band cannot be found then it can be left blank. Ejfetters 05:36, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
              • So your logic is that because we can't find a free photo with the whole band, we should just have no image? My drawn image explains A LOT more about how they look like than no photo. I'm replacing my image back into the article because for the current one, you cannot even see their faces and Chuck isn't even in it! — Ian Lee (Talk) 06:13, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • This is pointless, the image is not encyclopedic, do you want to draw images for every biographical listing without an image? If there is no free image found, then yes, it should be left blank, WP:FU - All this could be solved by simply looking up for a free use image. There's an image on Maroon 5's page that I dont think is very good, but its there unless someone else uploads another. Lifehouse has no image until someone uploads one. Just because there isn't an image there doesn't mean we can violate policy. Ejfetters 09:27, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • It's not my job to explain to anyone how copyright law works, and I have far better things than that to spend my time on, so please just take my word for it: This is not a free image. It is a derivative work, not in any way an original work, and at the moment incorrectly tagged because I'm fairly sure the original photo wasn't under GNU FDL. Legally, this is no better than any photo--if anything, it's even more tricky to categorize. Deal with it. EldKatt (Talk) 09:56, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thank you, enough said, my case is closed. Let the admins decide. Ejfetters 11:23, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • When you say you re-drew it, did you copy or trace over an existing photo? If you did that's a derivative work of a copyrighted photo, and not free use. If you did your own caricature or portrait inspired by, but not copied from, copyrighted sources then it's entirely original and you're free to release it to the public domain or under a fair license. People can argue about whether or not Wikipedia should use sketches, but at any rate that's not a non-free use issue. Unfortunately (for anyone who wants an image), the policy and guidelines here are pretty clear, that copyrighted photographs of living individuals including bands that are still active, should not be used merely because you haven't found a free image. They may not tour this year but they could tour next year, and if not here someone could take a picture of their appearance in some other country. Sometimes it's hard to get a good free use picture and you have to be patient, but difficulty doesn't justify using a non-free image. If the band breaks up or announces they will never again appear in public, then you have a stronger argument. With all that in mind, I agree to delete unless it turns out that this is not a derivative work Wikidemo 19:42, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • The key is replaceability. "Hard to replace" is not the same as "irreplaceable". The stance of policy is that, in a situation where a free image could be obtained, we would prefer no image over a non-free one. Delete. (ESkog)(Talk) 22:33, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Along with the copyright issues, Simple Plan is not a virtual band, so the image is inaccurate and misleading. 17Drew 05:27, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • This TV screenshot is attempt at circumventing copyright. It's from CNN and shows a picture of JonBenét Ramsey prominently in order to depict her. However, no discussion of John Ramsey's appearance on CNN is in the article, and even if there were, this screenshot would be necessary to understanding the idea that he was interviewed on CNN. howcheng {chat} 19:59, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Non-free magazine cover being used to show appearance of the model. Delete per WP:NFCC#1 and WP:NFCC#8 - does not increase readers' understanding in a way words cannot. Videmus Omnia Talk 20:04, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I think these images enhance the article, and are likely to be perfectly acceptable as "fair use" not just by us, but by any downstream commencial republisher of our page as well. The image clearly adds to the readers understanding by showing how she was portrayed on the cover of Playboy - what image it was that was spread over umpteen newsstands. We're not using this as the primary image of what she looks like; we're using it as a representative image of how she has commercialised herself. That is entirely appropriate. Jheald 20:19, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Delete - what exactly the cover image was isn't important here. The specific image didn't generate any controversy (or something like that). That it's legal fair use for us and for others is not enough reason to keep the image. Just like we don't keep any non-free image that "enhance the article". The image must be necessary for the understanding of the text information; --Abu badali (talk) 20:31, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • No, that's not what NFCC #8 says, as you know as well as I do. The image must "significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic". The topic here substantially is Ms von Teese's public image. So showing exactly how that image is commercially presented is entirely appropriate to increase readers' understanding of the topic. Jheald 20:42, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The Dita Von Teese article refers specifically to this cover, as it was an important point in Von Teese's career. Aside from that it was her first Playboy cover, and she received far more media attention than she had previously enjoyed as a consequence, it was also a typo on this cover that gave her her last name. This is a story often repeated throughout mainstream media, in addition to appearing Von Teese's own book, and without the image to accompany it the story becomes somewhat redundant. Suzarella 00:52, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep As the cover is the subject of a portion of the article, is clear for fair use. See WP:NFC Example 7:...if that cover itself is notable enough to be a topic within the article, then "fair use" may apply --Knulclunk 02:32, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Book cover being used primarily to decorate the article about the author. Delete per WP:NFCC#8. Videmus Omnia Talk 20:06, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Again, as a promotional book cover, this image is likely to be perfectly acceptable as "fair use" not just by us, but by any downstream commencial republisher of our page as well. "Burlesque" is central to the image Ms von Teese has defined for herself. This image shows the image of herself she evidently believes best expresses that, as well as serving as the primary visual identification for her book. Again, we're not using this as the primary image of what she looks like; we're using this, alongside the Playboy image, to accurately convey the commercial image she has consciously created for herself. That is not something that could be substituted by a free snapshot. Jheald 20:32, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The burlesque image is important to have, because this is Von Teese's profession; both she and the media refer to her as a burlesque dancer before any of her other interests. Additionally, the burlesque section really should be illustrated, as it is still a somewhat obscure art form, but people who've never heard of burlesque would know of Von Teese. It is not simply an image of the author herself, but of what has helped make her famous. Fair Use images of Von Teese are few and far between, and images of her burlesque shows themselves are often of very poor quality. In my opinion there is no satisfactory replacement for the image. Suzarella 00:43, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • The accompanying text doesn't really contain any critical review of the book cover or the book. Keeping a non-free image here only makes it more unlikely that we will get a free image. Videmus Omnia Talk 01:36, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • One doesn't really effect the other. If a satisfactory free image is found, the fair use one can easily be replaced. The book cover does also picture Von Teese's feather fans, "the biggest in the world", which the article does refer to. If a lines such as 'as illustrated on the cover of her book' inserted in the article would make the image more pertinent then I'm sure such lines could be added. I'm keen to keep this image over most, however, as it is a careful image, chosen by Von Teese herself as the main representation of her style of burlesque. A blurred and darkened image from one of her shows cannot capture this. Suzarella 14:52, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment - unfortunately Wikipedia doesn't allow for non-free pictures to be used "until a free one is found". If there is any possibility of a free image being obtained, then a non-free should not be used. As it is, one could reasonably expect a free image of this person to be released - even one which portrays her as a burlesque dancer. Anrie 08:41, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I got in touch with Steve Diet Goedde, one of her photographers - sounds like he's willing to contribute some free images of her, keep your fingers crossed. Videmus Omnia Talk 22:32, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per WP:NFCC#8, does not increase readers' understanding in a way words cannot. This isn't necessary, and isn't discussed in the article at all. The album cover image should suffice. Ejfetters 22:48, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
  • I think showing how the album was publicised - with these notably hard-edged images - is a valuable addition to the article. But WP is not in the business of galleries of non-free content. Keep only one or two at most. Jheald 07:26, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all. I would say keep one if it were accompanied by some discussion about the marketing of the book, but there isn't any, so these are really only decorative. howcheng {chat} 17:27, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
