The result of the discussion was: Delete, image fails NFCC#1. Rambo's Revenge (talk) 11:12, 15 October 2010 (UTC) reply

File:Luther g presley.jpg ( delete | talk | history | logs) – uploaded by Sweetpoet ( notify | contribs | uploads).

• I declined this image as a speedy deletion because it's difficult to discern and could use discussion. I believe that a free alternative of Mr. Presley could be found: given that he was active from 1901 onwards, I find it likely there is material out there (somewhere) published with a picture of him before 1923 (PD-US) or afterwards without copyright notice. Magog the Ogre ( talk) 04:59, 28 September 2010 (UTC) reply
• Delete As the editor who initially tagged this image for speedy, I agree. The uploader's stated purpose of use is strange, to say the least. Regardless, I find it difficult to believe that no free alternative exists or that permission for use of an image could not be obtained. Novaseminary ( talk) 05:53, 28 September 2010 (UTC) reply
• keep the individual has been deceased since 1974 and this image is being used on the bio page. We don't require herculean efforts to find a free alternative, if the subject is deceased.-- GrapedApe ( talk) 11:47, 28 September 2010 (UTC) reply

  I'm not sure I agree we don't require extra effort to obtain a free photograph; WP:NFCC#1 says Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent... could be created, that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose. The very act of creating that photograph means extra effort. Although I do agree this is not a clear-cut case, And I'm a bit ambivalent myself barring further arguments, though I leans toward delete. Magog the Ogre ( talk) 18:49, 28 September 2010 (UTC) reply

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

• Keep I agree the stated purpose is not as clear as it could be, but since he's dead we won't be able to create a free equivalent, and I'm reluctant to assume there is a free equivalent available until one is actually found. me_ and 20:53, 12 October 2010 (UTC) reply

• Comment I wonder if anyone as looked at the special collection mentioned here for public domain photos of Presley. I suspect not. It is still available at the University of Arkansas library witha finding aid (and a listing for a photograph here). Note that WP:NFCC states: "Note that it is the duty of users seeking to include or retain content to provide a valid rationale; those seeking to remove or delete it are not required to show that one cannot be created". At the very least, this says to me that somebody !voting keep should at least cleanup the rationale. Novaseminary ( talk) 21:28, 12 October 2010 (UTC) reply

  Fair point about the cleanup, I've just done that.

  Regarding the University of Arkansas archive, until we know whether the image(s) there are equivalent, I still think we should keep this image. I'll make it a priority to try and find someone to look at that collection (I think there's some process for requesting other editors investigate such things; I'll need to look it up). That said, I don't know when I'll have time to do this, so it could be a few months.

  I propose keeping the image until it is determined whether the public domain image is suitable.

• The file can always be re-downloaded and then re-uploaded here. Don't we default in favor of the copyright instead of the other way around? The fact that this person was active for years pre-copyright time (per Magog the Ogre) and there are archives containing material about him (the one I noted above and, per this source, one at Central Arkansas University) leads me to believe there is a very good chance that a PD or non-copyrighted image is available. If all reasonable possibilities are ruled out, then re-add the file. Novaseminary ( talk) 01:29, 13 October 2010 (UTC) reply

  Fair enough. Revise my notavote to Delete then. me_ and 09:29, 13 October 2010 (UTC) reply

• This image may be a free image tagged nonfree by mistake - I am not familiar with the art and don't know when it was created. However, I think it's a bit silly to use a nonfree image to illustrate a person who died in 1615. Surely if he rose to the notability that we make busts for him, there is a work of art in the public domain which illustrates him as effectively. ( ESkog)^{( Talk)} 15:13, 7 October 2010 (UTC) reply
• Keep No non-free images available of Perse that I can find. I thought the rules here were that a non-free image could be used only when a free image is not available. This is the case with Perse. Jack1956 ( talk) 17:57, 7 October 2010 (UTC) reply
