Logos and uniforms of the Cleveland Browns

Is essentially a gallery of non-free images, a flagrant violation of WP:NFCC ViperSnake151   Talk  01:15, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I question that these images are all non-free. I see only four that are unequivocally copyrightable: the two elf drawings, the bulldog head, and the B in the football.  The rest are all text-only logos, or generic helmet or uniform outlines used to show simple (and uncopyrightable) colors and stripes.  I see that they are all tagged with NFUR, but that may have been from an excess of caution or simple ignorance; coloring a helmet orange and putting a stripe on it certainly isn't copyrightable.  Unless the helmet or uniform drawings are actually non-free instead of user-generated, which we don't have a cause to use when we can draw or photograph a helmet or uniform ourselves.  postdlf (talk) 04:56, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep. What's the problem?  The text provides enough context without the images and, as User:Postdlf notes, a user-created image of a plain orange helmet does not meet the threshold of originality and is not a non-free image.  —  AjaxSmack   01:24, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep. Part of a series of articles, and it splits material out from the team's fairly long main article. Some of the text at Cleveland Browns should probably be moved here. - Eureka Lott 13:07, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
