 * Comment I'm concerned about the file format of this image - diagrams like this should be in PNG, not JPG. Time3000 (talk) 15:36, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * With photo-realistic shading and such I'd be willing to accept a raster image provided the size was big. We've done this before with some images. My main concern is the watermarking which has a copyright logo (even if the drawing is released under GFDL licensce, the image should not be watermarked). Also, the font for the names of the craft are in some kind of annoying cursive font that should be switched to a more readable one. Smells like copyvio though, I'd want an OTRS ticket confirming copyright status. Jeff Dahl (Talk • contribs) 16:27, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't think that JPEG is problem for FP. Please read about Rafale - the font, you write about, is simple a logo of Rafale. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dmottl (talk • contribs) 17:59, 29 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Support A great image which meets all the quality criteria. I share Jeff Dahl's concerns about copyright, however. Is it possible to prove that the editor who uploaded this onto Wikicommons is the same person as the email address in the image? (this editor has recently uploaded a large number of images displaying that email address). The plane's logo may be covered by copyright (fair use is claimed for Image:Rafale_logo.png), so it may be best to remove it from the image even if the overall copyright status turns out to be OK. This is a very easy tweak if it is neccessary, however, and won't detract much from the picture's quality. --Nick Dowling (talk) 01:04, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose because of logo font and copyright/credit line. These go against the principles of free content. --Janke | Talk 10:43, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * A free license means you have every right to remove them, although we did have a close IfD on whether or not an image creator could remove his content for no reason. gren グレン 19:30, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Releasing something under GFDL doesn't mean you lose your copyright on it. -- Naerii  20:53, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
