I assume that the artist for all of these doesn't have an article or that article already has images? Can you give us a bit more to go on before we delete an entire collection of artwork? Sven Manguard Talk 20:05, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Conditional Delete Someone should make a good faith effort to find a home for this. High quality, professionally shot pictures this old are rare and have high encyclopedic value.

 * Strong Keep I have placed the image in the article on Bowin Cars, where it serves to effectively illustrate the different models side by side.

 * Non-encyclopedic use of file, not used anywhere, does not have information regarding source/copyright status etc. Call me! Face-smile.svg My master! 21:12, 11 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep This is one of a series of 1960s motor-racing articles and images that this editor has tagged for deletion. I'd ask them to clarify what "non-encyclopedic" means in this context, as there appears no policy-based reason for this. Period photos of Lotus Europas are rare enough that we shouldn't discard them carelessly, particularly as when (as appears likely here) the group standing around it look like they're the car's design team (that may be John Joyce by the driver's door).
 * The uploader was Ashley Joyce, who I strongly suspect is a relative, but hasn't edited for some months. Although the upload metadata would be regarded as sparse today, it's entirely in keeping with WP'sstandards of 2006 and raises no suspicions. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:04, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Standards change, and re-evaluations of previous decisions are a part of this. Your argument is of little validity. Sven Manguard <sub style="text-shadow:#ffd700 0.14em 0.14em 0.14em">Talk 20:47, 12 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete Orphan. The text on the passanger door makes the image of little value, as it appears to be some sort of inside joke or personal comment. If added to an article it would cause confusion and detract from the overall article effectiveness. Other images of the car are sure to exist.

 * Unencyclopedic, doubt that the uploader has consent of the subject, not used much anywhere. Call me! Face-smile.svg My master! 21:16, 11 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep This is one of a series of 1960s motor-racing articles and images that this editor has tagged for deletion. I'd ask them to clarify what "non-encyclopedic" means in this context, as there appears no policy-based reason for this. John Joyce was a notable Lotus car designer of the 1960s (refs in several good RS, but I won't waste time and space here) and a photo of him at work is most welcome. The uploader was Ashley Joyce, who I strongly suspect is a relative, but hasn't edited for some months. Although the upload metadata would be regarded as sparse today, it's entirely in keeping with WP'sstandards of 2006 and raises no suspicions. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:57, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Uploader's name indicates more highly possible ownership, used in at least one article in a valid and constructive manner. Sven Manguard <sub style="text-shadow:#ffd700 0.14em 0.14em 0.14em">Talk 20:49, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep A photo of the owner and most important staff memeber of a compqany is certainly a valuable addition to an article. Your doubt it based exactly on what? You just doubt it? Shouldn't you have some sort of reason for that doubt? This is verging on WP:IDONTLIKEIT. A photo not being used much is no criteria for deletion. A photo only has to be used once, if it is appropriate and valuable to the article. There is no requirement that an image has to appear in more than one article to protect it from deletion. I question whether the nominator really knows what they are doing, particularly if as suggested above they have tagged a multitude of images. Perhaps the nominator needs to be refreshed on Wikipedia's policies and practices? --Falcadore (talk) 00:30, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Redundent to a Commons image, File:Erskine Nicol.jpg, but the two aren't quite identical, so this can't be speedied under F8. Nyttend (talk) 22:25, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Replace commons image with this one This is the better of the two images, by far. The other one has an odd border on two sides and a very off color balance. Because they are of the same subject, I don't think there would be any problem with the replacement being made. Afterwards, this will become a procedural delete, but this version is the one worth saving. Sven Manguard <sub style="text-shadow:#ffd700 0.14em 0.14em 0.14em">Talk 20:52, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I thought of doing this and speedying the local image; however, the resolution of the Commons image is far larger. Nyttend (talk) 23:47, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * This is a sticky one. The aspect ratio and coloring appears more natural in the local copy, but the other image is a higher resolution.  I believe that the local copy is probably the better image for those reasons, and thus would support replacing the Commons version with the local version and deleting the local copy.  If not, I would support uploading the local version to Commons under a separate name and then deleting the local copy.  Either way, this needs to go over to Commons one way or the other.  SchuminWeb (Talk) 23:23, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm taking the latter approach (File:Erskine Nicol, A Nip Against the Cold.jpg), so that both versions are available, at least for now, on Commons, so that it can be sorted out properly on Commons, and the local version can now be speedied. SchuminWeb (Talk) 23:27, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
