The screenshot is used in the plot section of
The Lion Has Wings against
WP:FILMNFI in that the plot section describes the film and is not critical commentary of the image itself. There is no critical commentary of the image itself in the article, it does nothing to increase the reader's understanding of the film and its exclusion is not detrimental to the understanding of the film, thereby failing
WP:NFCC#8.

Keep: How can any still image ever "increase the reader's understanding of the film"? It's just an illustration of a scene from the film --

From
WP:NFCC#8: "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." If the image does not "increase the reader's understanding of the film", then it is not needed in the film article. There needs to be critical commentary to justify the image's use in the article and the scene is not even mentioned in the plot section it is located, so why does it need to illustrate the scene?

Delete Per the nomination and Aspect's further comments. If the image is just a "decoration", then it needs to be removed. If it could be demonstrated that the image does actually meet the requirements of non-free media, I would be more than happy to change this to a keep vote.

I'm not entirely sure it would meet fair use standards. But if you want to draw up a rationale that includes all 10 points at
WP:NFCC I'll be happy to look at it. I'm concerned that an actual map may not actually be all that helpful to our readers reading about that specific station. Nor would the entire map be particularly relevant to specific station articles. --

Number 1 in the criteria (thank you for drawing it to my attention), states there must be no free alternative, so I think it should be deleted, and I will make one in illustrator and upload it as a replacement.

@
Joshua Marooney: Can you draw up a replacement that is both accurate (in terms of which stations are shown) and not a copyright violation (in terms of originality of information)? That is, could EastWestRail say "hey there, you've not used our graphic or even our shapes, but the general layout is ours - we chose which lines to depict and which stations to include on those lines." --

It seems to me, @Redrose, that you are setting the barrier too high. The lines and stations are facts on the ground. Drawing a series of parallel lines with one crossing line and then labelling them GWR, WCML, MLML, ECML and EWR is entirely valid. Copyright law does not protect ideas, only their expression. Otherwise every route diagram on every rail line article would be caught. I don't think that the image is particularly useful but that is not what this discussion is about. --

Showing stations and the lines that presently connect them is pretty much PD. Asserting that these are the routes that East West Rail will use is another matter. --
