 * delete. All points to this being an AP photo. No proof for the claim that the University of Texas claims copyright on this photo (as stated on image description page) and this would not make it PD in any case. --Damiens .rf 16:46, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
 * keep:::. The AP on July 8, 1947, bought rights to republish the photos from the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, which always retained the negatives. (The photos were instead wired out.)  The negatives are currently housed at the University of Texas at Arlington, Special Collections, which were given the old photos of the Star-Telegram and all copyright to these photos.  Possession is 9/10ths of the law.  You can order high-quality print copies from UTA today, but all commercial rights of reproduction require either a fee or their OK.  You also need to label that the photo comes from UTA, as, e.g., is done in this book on Roswell:   Note that this identical photo at Google Books does not violate any copyright, and the version here at Wikipedia is further degraded in image quality, is educational and totally noncommercial, and used solely to illustrate a point in the Roswell articles, showing a box around a disputed message being held in hand.  A blow-up of the message itself within this photo has previously been ruled on Wikipedia to be not in copyright violation, since it was originally property of the U.S. government.Dr Fil (talk) 00:26, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Would like to add that this photo was just deleted at Wiki commons with the justification that Fair Use is not allowed at the commons. But U.S. Fair Use law is extremely broad and degraded images used strictly for educational reasons fall easily under Fair Use.  There is really no substitute to replace it, used to illustrate the source of a disputed message discussed elsewhere, thus boxed in on the photo.  The blown-up message itself has already been ruled as falling under U.S. Fair Use law.Dr Fil (talk) 00:36, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Not free unless this is coverer by some kind of freedom of panorama in NYC. Should be deleted because it can't be used as fair use, since the artwork is never discussed on Wikipedia. --Damiens .rf 16:48, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Uploaded by a user who has so far used it just to vandalize articles. Also is described incorrectly, it's not a logo. Yaksar (let's chat) 08:37, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

 * There is simply insufficient information about this image to determine its copyright status. The confusing summary seems to bring copyright into doubt, with its notation that "source: Dr Qadir Magsi,fair use". It looks very clearly to be a picture of a picture. I can't help but wonder if this is a derivative work where the uploader believed taking a photograph gave him rights to the original piece. Unless we can verify that the underlying picture is free, I do not believe we can retain this. Moonriddengirl (talk) 18:40, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
 * delete - uploader is obviously confused about copyrights. This is a picture of a poster in a wall. The original poster copyrights prevail. --Damiens .rf 16:53, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

 * No information on original publication, so copyright can't be determined. &mdash;innotata 18:56, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. It's a painting titled "The woolly mammoth is a close relative to the modern elephant", evidently created in 1942. According to Corbis, the copyright in the image is owned by National Geographic. See . We can't keep this without some good reason to believe it is PD. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 19:04, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Obviously non-free image that is not claimed by the uploader to be fair use Alistair Stevenson (talk) 22:48, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
