Yes, I removed it, myself, as there are far better things that can be done, like adding fair-use rationales oneself, which persistent deletionists seem to turn a blind eye to. Chris (クリス • フィッチ) (talk) 04:05, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Chris. Sagredo⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 04:54, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
IMO not if the images are nominated in good faith, check out this history of NoSoftwarePatents talk page for example, me and another editor nominated around 200 of his images for deletion in one go, all save one were deleted in the end. As long as it's in good faith there is no problem. I just want to remove all the images he has simply taken from random internet sites and labelled as his own, without ever attributing the source, always just PD-Self.

That is so easily fixed, what definition are you using for good faith? Helping an eager editor to see their error and tagging them correctly would be good faith. Chris (クリス • フィッチ) (talk) 01:43, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Wouldn't the constructive thing be to help Mangwanani with the license tags? Sagredo⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 07:39, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Not to mention that it's the decent thing to do as a human being. Sagredo⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 07:39, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for waiting... Mangwanani (talk) 18:58, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep The concern is whether the image can quality for Fair Use or not. As per WP:NONFREE, "Copyrighted images that reasonably can be replaced by free/libre images are not suitable for Wikipedia." This image, however, cannot 'reasonably' be replaced by a free image. This is because it is not trivial to generate the associated ASCII art. The image is a screenshot of software, and a work of visual art. It is used for critical commentary. Consequently, it should be kept. --AB (talk) 17:49, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Lokal, please point me to a WP policy page and section that explicitly confirms this. --AB (talk) 01:02, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You quoted it yourself here above Copyrighted images that reasonably can be replaced by free/libre images are not suitable for Wikipedia. Or more specifically Wikipedia:NONFREE#Images_2 point number 12. /Lokal_Profil 12:50, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The statement I had quoted was followed by my statements stating why the image can be kept. Additionally, I fail to see how the statement you pointed me to specifically prevents the use of the stated image. At this time this stands as 1 for delete vs 2 for keep. I request that you get arbitration from a WP Administrator. --AB (talk) 23:42, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
