WikiProject Harry Potter/Images
We can't have galleries of fair use images. Fair use. Coffee 18:26, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Oh, good, keep with Deathphoenix's change. I should have thought of doing that myself. Coffee 14:28, 15 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete We certainly shouldn't have fair use galleries, although it might be possible to justify one under exceptional circumstances, with the addition of reasonable text citing appropriate fair use. Anyway, this isn't that case. Xoloz 22:41, 11 December 2005 (UTC) Keep with the change, though JTK is correct in his added concerns. Xoloz 14:03, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: The purpose of this page is to provide a link to all of the Harry Potter-related images for categorisation and use. This is more a workspace for the Wikiproject to coordinate images and screenshots. If galleries of fair use images are prohibited, I can change the links to fair use images from [[Image:Example]] to Image:Example so that the image doesn't get displayed. Would that be acceptable? At the very least, this page should be kept with the images removed, not have the entire page deleted entirely. --Deathphoenix 19:43, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. As Deathphoenix said, it't not intended as a display gallery, but as a place to organize and maintain images pertaining to Harry Potter for the HP WikiProject. As Deathphoenix said, we can easily make the images simply linked so as to avoid fair use issues. Best regards, &Euml;vilphoenix Burn! 20:10, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep: I've changed the galleries into links that don't display the image. Now this is no longer a fair use gallery, and is simply a Wikiproject workspace for handling images. --Deathphoenix 20:11, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep With Deathphoenix's change, however every once in awhile people should go through and tag any images that aren't in use in an article since without article usage they can't even be on the server for long as fair use. Jtkiefer T  23:57, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
 * That's a good point. After a little while, I'll go through these files and tag some that aren't used myself. --Deathphoenix 17:48, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
 * If any of those aren't used in articles, they'll be tagged by User:Gmaxwell's bot and it'll show up here. That's actually how I found this gallery. Coffee 14:28, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, per the reasoning of both Phoenixes. Tito xd (?!? - did you read this?) 19:55, 14 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep: as this is needed for the maintaining of the Harry Potter related pages Stordoff 16:52, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
