The soundtrack's cover art is essentially the same as the movie poster (outside text placement), and thus is duplicate non-free on the page. M asem (t) 01:23, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I am not sure if my ideas are right, but I thought a soundtrack album is independent of some sort from its originating film (the former is a cover for an musical album, the latter is a poster for a film); that is why I also thought a soundtrack album's cover art should not be compared to its originating film's poster art and the two can be treated as separate works. There are instances when the cover art of the soundtrack album is similar to its originating movie's theatrical poster (e.g. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1, The Lion King, Titanic). But I noticed that for these examples of soundtrack albums, they were treated in separate articles and the cover art was used in these separate articles. Should the same be also applied for Parasite? Thank you! —Nairb.Idi9 (talk) 03:17, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I would also like to ask if I am incorrect in assuming a soundtrack album's cover art and its originating film's poster art can be treated as separate works; and I want to learn about the specific guidelines regarding cases like this for future edits/uploads. Thank you! —Nairb.Idi9 (talk) 03:19, 17 February 2020 (UTC)


 * The Parasite soundtrack must met notability guidelines, which have more specific guidelines at WP:NALBUMS, so that it can have a standalone article, and in such a case, the cover of the soundtrack would be allowed. But if the soundtrack is not notable on its own but included in the movie's page, and the cover art is essentially the same, then per WP:NFCC the soundtrack cover is unnecessary. --M asem (t) 03:44, 17 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:FILMMUSIC: "WikiProject Film consensus is against having cover images in the album infoboxes in the film article. The poster image in the film infobox is sufficient for for identification of the topic (WP:NFCI), and having cover images in the film article's album infoboxes is considered extraneous." – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 15:44, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NFCC, WP:NFCC, WP:NFCC, WP:FILMSCORE and WP:NFC. Cover art for soundtrack albums can be used for primary identification purposes in stand-alone articles about the albums themselves, just as in the case of non-soundtrack albums, but other types of non-free use tends to be must harder to justify and almost always requires that the cover art itself needs to be the subject of sourced critical commentary to meet NFCC#8. Many soundtrack covers often simply repeat/reuse the same branding imagery as used for the primary poster art used to identify the film itself which means there's really no new significant encyclopedic information being provided to the reader that couldn't be explained through simple text; thus, NFCC#1 and NFCC#3a are also not really being met. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:42, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

Originally nominated for speedy deletion under WP:CSD by @Bitter Oil with the reason "Explanation says "research ended without the existence of a free alternative". That is not a justification as fair use."  F ASTILY   08:14, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't understand why this wouldn't be a speedy deletion. There is no legitimate fair use claim made. The uploader seems to be saying "I couldn't find one". The pictured person is alive (although incarcerated). No part of the article discusses the appearance of this mentally ill man, so an illustration seems unnecessary in any case.

If ever a file name like this should exist, it should be related to the actual CID and not a film. But File:C I D.jpg is still a bad example for a file name because of how short it is. Kailash29792 (talk)  11:39, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

Non-free image of a deceased person used as WP:NFCI§10. There is a free image of the subject however: File:PolPot.jpg. Is the free replacement of too poor quality to be used? – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 15:36, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
 * This was originally a CSD, but I think a proper discussion would be helpful. Here is the original nomination by :"" And keep rationale by :"" (copied here by – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 15:41, 17 February 2020 (UTC))


 * Comment: While I understand that the quality of non-free image is better, "quality" never seems to have been one of the primary considerations when it comes to WP:FREER type discussions. Articles, even articles about persons living or deceased, aren't required to have infobox images for primary identification purposes, but those that do often have "free" images which could be argued are not of a very good quality and for which a better quality non-free image could be easily found. FREER only discusses quality by saying "an acceptable quality sufficient to serve the encyclopedic purpose" which is quite general, but crops of larger free images are one way this is done. In my opinion, this cropped image though not as good as the non-free image of Pot, is of an "acceptable quality" to serve the purpose of primary identification. I get that this is subjective and if the consensus is that the difference is significant enough to justify a non-free files use, then that's fine. However, one thing to consider in such a case then is whether this particular non-free is the best quality image that could be used because if you're going to argue in favor of a non-free solely based on "better quality", then there are lots of possible non-free images of Pol that you can choose from and some might be of a better quality than this particular one. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:33, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
