Oppose While the first page of
media.southaustralia.com says the images are 'copyright-free', their terms say otherwise, with things like "The SATC has provided a selection of copyright-free images for use, at no charge. These images are to be used solely for the positive general promotion of South Australia as a destination. They cannot be used for commercial, business or corporate purposes or for paid advertising without the written authority of the SATC." The image's copyright status is dubious, very dubious.

Yes it is. Wikipedia and Commons are commercial uses, and require free commercial licensing. This image should be deleted. --

Can I just point you to the
Wikipedia article, where it distinctly says in the box at the top right "Commercial: No". Wikipedia is a
non-profit organization, and a
charity, therefore it is not commercial. Aside from that, the picture is WAY too small, positively tiny for a panorama, so you have an Oppose from me. —

Wikipedia print editions are considered commercial use, even if the online version isn't. Regardless, all images used on Wikipedia and Commons are required to have free commercial licenses, with the exception of those that meet certain requirements and fall under fair use. This doesn't meet those requirements. --

Oppose and delete. Even if Wikipedia itself is non-commercial, re-users are allowed to use Wikipedia content commercially. The image's copyright is not compatible with the GFDL. -
