File talk:FSA-grab.png

Proposed deletion
I fail to see how the fact that Riad al-Asaad is still alive is material, nor am I sympathetic to the argument that the image should not be used because it is not significant to readers' understanding of the material. This is a low-res screengrab from a low-quality video on YouTube and it is not appropriate to apply some draconian standard to justify removing it from Wikipedia. -Kudzu1 (talk) 02:46, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Riad al-Asaad is the only person identified in the image, and according to his Wikipedia article he is still alive. If the primary purpose of the screen shot is to show what he looks like, then this is problematic per WP:NFCC. Generally, non-free images are not allowed to be used to identify living persons because it is reasonable to expect that someone somewhere someday may be able to create a freely licensed photo/image. That and WP:NFCC is why I removed the file from Riad al-Asaad.
 * Another concern is that this screenshot simply shows a bunch of individuals sitting around a table which again does not seem to be needed per WP:NFCC and WP:NFCC since that is being more than adequately explained using text in the article as follows: "On 29 July 2011, Colonel Riad al-Asaad and a group of uniformed officers announced the formation of the Free Syrian Army or 'Syrian Free Army', with the goals of protecting unarmed protesters and helping to "bring down this regime", in a video on the Internet where Riad al-Asaad spoke alongside several other defectors." Why does a reader need to see this particular screenshot to understand that particular sentence? There is no sourced discussion in the article about the particulars of the screenshot itself, so why does the reader need to see it to understand what is written. The fact that it is low-res means it satisfies WP:NFCC, but each use of non-free content is required to satisfy all 10 non-free content in WP:NFCCP; not just one of the 10. -- Marchjuly (talk) 03:04, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
