 * Image:Orlando Urdaneta.jpg  (talk | [ delete])
 * Uploaded by GJRFMorelligu ([ notify]). Summary is "Image from the World Wide Web".  Licensing is GFDL-self.  Something isn't right somewhere along the line.- BigDT 00:13, 30 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Image:Rodolfo Saglimbeni 1.jpg  (talk | [ delete])
 * Uploaded by GJRFMorelligu ([ notify]). Uploader asserts this image is from an event poster.  It is being used to illustrate the subject of the image, not the event itself.- BigDT 00:17, 30 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Image:Leo Gamez.jpg  (talk | [ delete])
 * Uploaded by GJRFMorelligu ([ notify]). Summary is "promotional image of Leo Gamez from the World Wide Web".  Licensing is GFDL-self.  Does not compute.- BigDT 00:21, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Image:Luis Felipe Ramon y Rivera 1.jpg  (talk | [ delete])
 * Uploaded by GJRFMorelligu ([ notify] | contribs). UE, same as Image:Luis Felipe Ramon y Rivera.jpg, though this one is not an orphan.  GFDL-self is doubtful- BigDT 00:44, 30 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Image:Ghs001.jpg  (talk | [ delete])
 * Uploaded by DHFedders ([ notify] | contribs). I don't see a fair use rationale for this image, since it would be easy for a Wikipedian to take a picture of the high school, for use here without fair use restrictions.-- Aude ( talk contribs ) 06:24, 30 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Image:FirstPicture.jpg  (talk | [ delete])
 * Uploaded by Michael L. Kaufman ([ notify] | contribs). It's redundant to Image:View from the Window at Le Gras, Joseph Nicéphore Niépce.jpg (which is a featured picture).- Conscious 10:57, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Image:Amin.jpg. This image is a mess: there are two different images in the image history, and two different source websites in the history -- but the sources don't match with the images.  The image is used in the biographies of two different people.  And to top it all off, there's a claim of "no rights reserved", with no supporting evidence for either image. --Carnildo 18:34, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Image:Metroid FatheadSamus.gif  (talk | [ delete])
 * Uploaded by Luigi128 ([ notify] | contribs). OR, UE, tagged with obviously false NoRightsReserved- BigDT 19:47, 30 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Image:GRAVITY.jpg <sup id="Image:GRAVITY.jpg"> (talk | [ delete])
 * Uploaded by Marksuppes ([ notify] | contribs). OR, bad JPEG artifacts- BigDT 20:21, 30 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Image:Dancer-in-motion.png <sup id="Image:Dancer-in-motion.png"> (talk | [ delete])
 * AB. Uploaded by Ohka- ([ notify] | contribs).  This image is marked with two incompatible licenses.  One is the GFDL.  The other states that derivative use is disallowed, which would make the image a candidate for speedy deletion.  Proper licensing needs to be established.  If it actually cannot be used for derivative use, it needs to be deleted; we have many other images of people dancing that could be used instead. Jkelly 21:55, 30 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Image:Flaggdeathx.jpg <sup id="Image:Flaggdeathx.jpg"> (talk | [ delete])
 * Uploaded by DrBat ([ notify] | contribs). This image gives away a major plot spoiler on various fronts in Stephen King's work. A spoiler template can ward you away before you read text containing plot spoilers. But reading takes effort; viewing images is automatic. Anyone might look at the Randall Flagg article out of curiosity, innocently scroll through it, and in milliseconds have a major plot point spoiled for them. I'm speaking from experience here. Furthermore, this image is incorrectly tagged as a book cover and contains no fair use rationale. Considering that colored illustrations are one of the main incentives to buy certain editions of books, the "the nature of the copyrighted work" and "the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work" might be in question here.

 * Related discussion here. &mdash; RevRagnarok  Talk Contrib 22:13, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Don't delete. Reading articles takes little effort. If one does not pay attention to spoiler warnings or common sense, it is no one's fault but their own if they get spoiled. The article in question is dedicated specifically to a certain character and their roles in the books. One should expect their entire character arc. Furthermore, I suspect that what Punctured Bicycle is doing is abusing the Wikipedia deletion policy which states XfD processes are not a way to complain or remove material that is personally disliked, whose perspective is against ones beliefs, or which is not yet presented neutrally. I would also like to point that out everyone participating in the discussion by Revragnarok is in agreement of keeping the picture in the article and all of us think that Bicycle is acting out of hand and for his own personal interests.--CyberGhostface 00:31, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I would also like to add that I have recently reinstated a more accurate fair use template that better suits the picture of Randall Flagg being killed by Mordred Deschain so the argument that it is incorrectly tagged and has no fair use rationale no longer holds any ground.--CyberGhostface 00:49, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Our "fair use" argument is still dodgy. We're not really engaging in critical commentary on the artwork; we're using it to illustrate a plot point, which is the same use that the original work was designed for, so there is no transformative use.   Jkelly 01:45, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * So are you for or against its deletion?--CyberGhostface 02:06, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm not really interested in "voting" on this image. I'll say that I wouldn't make this particular fair use claim, and that if I were the admin closing this day's IFDs I would probably delete it.  Jkelly 02:40, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * How is this fair use claim wrong?--CyberGhostface 02:58, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Let's look at Fair use criteria. It fails #1, because this scene could be represented by a Wikipedian artist, and since we're not discussing the artist's work in the article, just the scene it illustrates, we wouldn't lose anything.  Numbers two, three, five and eight are all questionable; the image really isn't indispensible -- there's nothing particularly encyclopedic about this image.  We're also failing #10, as we don't have a source for the copyright holder (is it with the publisher of the book or the artist?  could be either, is likely the former).  There are literally thousands of much worse fair use claims on Wikipedia, but it is probably worth mentioning as a concern.  Think of it this way; if this image is really fair use, is any illustration of any scene in any novel not fair use?  Jkelly 03:19, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Is this picture fan art? Fan art is deleted all the time as not fair use. BigDT 03:42, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Its not fan art. Its published art by Michael Whelan that appeared in The Dark Tower.--CyberGhostface 03:45, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
