The result was Keep - this image is one of only 2 uploaded by the user, so they are not using Wikipedia for a photo holding service or similar. The user is still active on Wikipedia and seems to want to keep the picture, which is GFDL licensed. The image is not currently used by the uploader, but they seem to be redisgning their user page. Therefore, I'm closing as Keep for now, with no prejudice against re-listing if it remains unused. Johntex\ ^talk 22:35, 24 April 2007 (UTC) reply

  Related discussion about this cover can be is taking place (at the time of this nomination) on Talk:Ashley Massaro#Playboy Cover and User talk:Abu badali#Your copyright paranoia. They may be or may not be of interest for this ifd. -- Abu badali ^{( talk)} 07:54, 31 March 2007 (UTC) reply

  Completely unnecessary nomination. The page for the image explains the rational and there is no reason for it to be deleted from the space or the article. -- JohnDoe0007 07:15, 2 April 2007 (UTC) reply

  I don't think the "fair use rationale" explains why do we need to use this image. It says: "Image represents an incredibly important event in the person's life" and "Issue is mentioned in the text.". Even if we manage to properly source (and un-pov) "incredibly important event", we don't need to show the magazine cover image just because the magazine cover issue is "incredibly important". The image should be used only if it contains notable information that can't be conveyed with text. Information like and "London Hilton was featured in Playboy August 2007 cover" can be conveyed with text only. -- Abu badali ^{( talk)} 11:44, 2 April 2007 (UTC) reply

  Keep In that case almost anything could be conveyed in text and no images would be necessary. The magazine cover says can be included for commentary on the ssue in questions which it is, nice try. Trevor GH5 23:30, 3 April 2007 (UTC) reply

  Not really. See Image:OJ_Simpson_Newsweek_TIME.png or Image:As03-martha_updat.jpg for examples of magazine cover images (and not magazine "issues") that are noteworthy enough to deserve commentary. "nice try" - that was completely unnecessary. -- Abu badali ^{( talk)} 00:46, 4 April 2007 (UTC) reply

This guy's rampant copyright paranoia is a scourge on Wikipedia. The magazine cover template says it may be used: "to illustrate the publication of the issue of the magazine in question,

with the publication name either visible on the image itself or written in the image description above," If he wants to try and re-write that template let him do that instead of putting his OR views on things. Trevor GH5 23:35, 3 April 2007 (UTC) reply

Please, stay cool. Not everything in your above comment is welcome in this discussion. Please understand that the fair use template's texts are descriptive, and not prescriptive. We should take in account our policy and the recent foundation resolution of unfree image usage. I believe magazine covers as this one fail at least item #1 of our policy in that they are been used to convey as little information as "Model 'Ms X' was feature in the September issue of Magazine MMM", which can be conveyed with (free) text only. If nothing noteworthy was ever published about the cover image itself, it means that we're not going to do any comments about this image, making it unnecessary.

I hope I had cleared the matter. If you (or anyone else) has any other doubt, please, feel free to leave a (cool minded) message with your points. All the best, -- Abu badali ^{( talk)} 00:46, 4 April 2007 (UTC) reply

Also please leep in mind the community's recent decision where several editors including admins declared you a copyright paranoiac. Thanks. Trevor GH5 19:50, 24 April 2007 (UTC) reply

"declared you a copyright paranoiac" - you're putting words in other people's mouth to attack me. I'm aware of no such "declaration". I have been called many things here on Wikipedia, from Jihadist to Crusader, and of course, Nazi. But that don't make me nothing of this. Attack my arguments, not me. -- Abu badali ^{( talk)} 21:17, 24 April 2007 (UTC) reply

They said it outright, see oppose #'s 22 and 23, 22 is an admin. It's valid when considering your nominations, all you do is nominate pics for deletion. There has to be some kind of counterbalances against rampant copyright paranoia. Trevor GH5 23:28, 24 April 2007 (UTC) reply

Please you have blatant copyright paranoia, it's sad. Please don't try to act like you're educating people. See the Mandy Moore article, there's a fair use cover in there and nothing there that can't be conveyed in words. I don't see anyone having trouble with that and presumably hundreds of thousands of editors are trafficking that page today alone. Trevor GH5 12:58, 4 April 2007 (UTC) reply

I never said this image was a copyright violation. -- Abu badali ^{( talk)} 18:47, 4 April 2007 (UTC) reply

You said or implied that it shouldn't be used because it was copyrighted, also I commented on the talk page at Ashley Massaro because people were complaining about the image being listed. They have a right to know that they can come here and voice their opinions. Don't try to deny people being able to come here and say what they feel. Also I said copyright paranoia because all day you list pics on Wikipedia for deletion. I'm not the only one who's had arguments with you about this. Trevor GH5 05:00, 5 April 2007 (UTC) reply

No, I never said nor implied this image shouldn't be used because it was copyrighted. -- Abu badali ^{( talk)} 10:02, 5 April 2007 (UTC) reply

No, Trevor GH5, you aren't. In fact, it is this type of one-track mindedness that helped his plea for admin powers get rejected . And thank heaven for the wisdom of those who did so. -- JohnDoe0007 05:36, 5 April 2007 (UTC) reply

• Delete I remember being an image uploaded here or the commons where someone took a picture of Massaro's Playboy celebration. If it is found, this image is a CSD copyvio, and the other should be used instead. For that one, it explains both the fact she's was on the cover, and how WWE marketed her appearance. -- w^{L< speak· check>} 03:14, 4 April 2007 (UTC) reply

You think you saw something somewhere? Seriously? That's your reason? You may have seen one somewhere? Trevor GH5 12:58, 4 April 2007 (UTC) reply

• Keep Fine. Go find it and prove there is an alternative to it. Just because you "think you remember" "someone" uploading an image like that doesn't provide evidence for CSD. What if I suggested your account be blocked from Wiki because I was "pretty sure I noticed similar writings from your account and another that looks like you were sock puppeteering...?" Should we just shoot first and then ask questions? -- JohnDoe0007 06:43, 4 April 2007 (UTC) reply

• Comment User User:Trevor GH5 has posted a comment inviting editors to vote keep for this ifd, what may (or may not) cause a disproportional number of keep votes.

  • Comment As I stated above I made a comment on the talk page that was located in a section discussing the image to people who were discussing the image. Hardly some malicious attempt to "rig the vote". Trevor GH5 21:55, 14 April 2007 (UTC) reply
• Comment reply I sincerely hope any admin would read ALL discussions relevant the the issue and would have a versed enough knowledge of Wiki policies and protocols that they don't need YOU telling them how to do THEIR job. -- JohnDoe0007 05:28, 5 April 2007 (UTC) reply

The result was Keep - relable as non-free - Since this is a logo, there are two possibilities. One is that the logo has properly been released under GFDL as claimed by the uploader. The second is that the uploader did not have those rights, but the logo could still be used under fair use. The conservative thing is to relabel the logo as non-free.

• I have nominated an identical image for deletion before because of copyright issues. ( here is that discussion). Now this one has been uploaded with the statement that "This rendition was created by Apakal who released it into the public domain." Apakal is a screen-name from the GirlChat messageboard. The account does not claim to be the logo's designer, just the one who made this particular image. It isn't clear that he has any standing to release claim to the image - or to publish a copy of the logo himself. Who Akapal is in real life is also unclear.

• However, the image is the logo of a political movement (pedophile activism), so it stands to reason that the original designer did want it to be copied and distributed as widely as possible. We just have no indication of who that original designer was. What is the protocol in cases like this? Can editorial decisions be based on the presumed intent of an unknown person? I am honestly uncertain of the answer.

• ETA: Sorry, it looks like (and I now recall) the second image already existed at the time of the first's deletion. DanB†DanD 20:31, 31 March 2007 (UTC) reply

I honestly don't know. At worst, shouldn't we be able to claim fair use of the image for the Pedophile activism article (which discusses the logo) even if the current license is incorrect? -- tjstrf talk 20:36, 31 March 2007 (UTC) reply
