This seems like a rather clear violation of our fair-use standards, in any article. Deletion seems necessary. This is a carryover from WP:NFCR, the discussion from there is quote below. Oiyarbepsy ( talk) 02:40, 11 February 2016 (UTC) reply

There's no discussion of the image or the film within the article where it's used. I don't believe it meets our non-free criteria. — Spaceman Spiff 05:36, 14 August 2015 (UTC) reply

Given that we have a non-free of the actor out of costume/make-up serving for the infobox (good), and that the comparison between the two images shows little difference in the person's appearance (the film costume does not involve excessive makeup/etc.) and that there's no discussion, it definite is a problem to keep this image. -- MASEM ( t) 17:15, 14 August 2015 (UTC) reply

This file seems to be unfree, since it maybe wasn't technically the work of a government employee. A free image on her article could serve as her portrait if cropped. Leftover from WP:NFCR, original discussion below. Oiyarbepsy ( talk) 04:37, 11 February 2016 (UTC) reply

The page it links as source says "Photos for News Media Use Only"

Attributed to the Smithsonian with government free use rationale. The Smithsonian is a trust instrumentality by act of Congress, and it is functionally and legally a body of the U.S. government, but separate from the government's federal legislative, executive, and judicial branches.

I havent used FFD before so I apologize if this shouldve been a speedy. Savonneux ( talk) 02:32, 23 August 2015 (UTC) reply

The language you quote suggests that works of the Smithsonian employees are PD works, but we have no idea whom the photographer is here, if it was a work for hire or not. The language of "news media only" suggests the copyright belongs to the photographer who is not necessarily a US gov't employee and thus this would not be free. And this should be a NFCC#1 if it is non-free. -- MASEM ( t) 02:43, 23 August 2015 (UTC) reply
"Works prepared by officers or employees of the Smithsonian Institution are not considered works of the U.S. government if the author-employee was paid from the Smithsonian trust fund."-- Copyright Office Compendium 3rd ed. §313.6(C)(1) RJaguar3 | u | t 02:48, 23 August 2015 (UTC) reply
So yes, it's probably best to assume that with both the language on the site and this, we aren't looking at a free image here. -- MASEM ( t) 03:16, 23 August 2015 (UTC) reply

Better yet, see Copyfraud. Then note that Bettman/Corbis only registered a few of its 11 million old press photo collection that Bill Gates bought. Also view the reverse side of this, this, or this one, from the same event, all original without copyrights. The U.S. images rightly belong in the Commons, but that's another story. -- Light show ( talk) 19:26, 11 February 2016 (UTC) reply
You're probably right. There's no reason to post someone wearing a common clothing accessory, worn in public by everyday folks, and even youngsters. Other than the minor fact that Baer wore his voluntarily, of course. -- Light show ( talk) 17:28, 12 February 2016 (UTC) reply
The fact that you're willing to post that shabby attempt to associate me with Nazi sympathies just because I disagree with you about nonfree image policy pretty much establishes that you're a loathsome little jackass.

Tagged this as replaceable fair use with the rationale, "A living person can be shown with a free image", the uploader is contesting with the rationale "his is the most up to date photo of Haley, thus making it the most relevant and the photographer personally released it for this specific use". Bringing this here for discussion, I wonder if the uploader can get a broader permission statement from the photographer and submit it to OTRS or the photographer's website, if it exists.
