Wikipedia:Files for deletion/Replaceable fair use/File:Clipsal 500.jpg


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of a fair use image as a replaceable image. Please do not modify it. 

The result was to delete the image.

Criterion #1 of Wikipedia's fair use policy says that a "non-free media used on Wikipedia must meet ... [the following criterion]: "No free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information." Well, a free image that would adequately give the same information could easily be created by attending the Clipsal 500 and bringing a camera to take photogrphas. Seems to me like this image is thus a fair use image which could be easily replaced. I don't know how the image, then, "Doesnt Violate any sense of the Wikipedia Criteria." It certainly appears to violate criterion #1 to me. --Iamunknown 04:19, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
