• Now Commons. — Wknight94 ( talk) 02:49, 14 October 2008 (UTC) reply
  • Where? I can see a different Commons image showing through, but no indication that the one we're discussing was moved to Commons. Or is that what you meant? — Ilmari Karonen ( talk) 10:05, 14 October 2008 (UTC) reply
    • Yes, sorry, that's what I meant. I'll change wording in the future... — Wknight94 ( talk) 01:07, 15 October 2008 (UTC) reply
      • Okay, I was just a bit confused since my initial association was with {{ Now Commons}}. — Ilmari Karonen ( talk) 09:27, 15 October 2008 (UTC) reply

• Copyrighted book cover used just to show the living person displayed. The book is not even mentioned on Wikipedia. Damiens.rf 17:35, 8 October 2008 (UTC) reply

• Keep. Andren is dead. But in your haste to be a delete queen you didn't know that did you? Timeshift ( talk) 21:02, 8 October 2008 (UTC) reply
• Keep. The Andren report was originally his regular updates to his electors, which was then edited and combined for the book for a wider audience. Many people outside his electorate also read his regular Andren reports via his website. The book cover is significant as it reflects Andren's communication as an independent MP to his electors and the Australian people. It adds significant detail to the article on Peter Andren, even though the book (or the reports it is based upon) are not yet mentioned in the article.-- Takver ( talk) 13:01, 9 October 2008 (UTC) reply
• Keep. Dead people are generally not a good fit for the category of "living person", despite the efforts of users for whom reading the first line of an article appears to be a terrible struggle. Rebecca ( talk) 07:48, 10 October 2008 (UTC) reply

• This copyrighted picture is not necessary for understanding the article discussing the important event it shows. Damiens.rf 17:39, 8 October 2008 (UTC) reply
• Keep I strongly disagree. This photo is iconic and depicts an important moment in the 1975 constitutional crisis - Gough Whitlam's impromptu media conference on the steps of Parliament House. I think retention of the photo adds important detail to the article's content and should be retained under the existing 'fair dealing' copyright licence.-- Takver ( talk) 12:47, 9 October 2008 (UTC) reply
• Keep per above. It is impossible to gain a free equivelent of such a photo of such an historic event. Timeshift ( talk) 23:55, 11 October 2008 (UTC) reply

  This nomination is not about WP:NFCC#1. If you can, please explain us how is this picture necessary for the understanding of the 1975 constitutional crisis. -- Damiens.rf 07:51, 12 October 2008 (UTC) reply

• I think I have to agree with Damiens.rf here: our non-free content policy says that "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." Having read the article this image is used in, I have to say I don't feel that's the case here. Yes, it's a good image. Yes, it's evocative, at least when put in context (which the article as currently written doesn't really do, though). But it doesn't really tell the reader anything that the textual quotation of Whitlam's address at the bottom of the section entitled "The dismissal" (which I assume is what this image is depicting, though the article really doesn't even make this clear) would not already convey just as well or better. The article does not need this image. Per Wikipedia policy, that means we shouldn't use it, given that it's not free. So, delete. Ps. If I'm reading this page right, this picture appears to be under Crown copyright. If Wikipedia is still around in 17 years, we can put it back once the copyright has expired. — Ilmari Karonen ( talk) 15:45, 12 October 2008 (UTC) reply
• Keep This is a still picture of one of Australia's most iconic historical moments. In the context of the 1975 constitutional crisis, it is the precise moment at which that crisis came to the head - the gentleman at the right is reading out the declaration at which the gentleman on the left is becoming the first Prime Minister (and so far only) ever to be sacked by a Governor General. Orderinchaos 02:34, 13 October 2008 (UTC) reply
• Keep Keep it, plain and simple, even if for no other reason than no other suitable replacement seems to be ready to take its place. It appears iconic on its face. Alexander Burke ( talk) 05:15, 15 October 2008 (UTC) reply

• Copyrighted picture of living Australian Damiens.rf 17:46, 8 October 2008 (UTC) reply
• Strong Keep. The copyright notice attached to the photo gives explicit permission for reproduction on Wikipedia for 'fair dealing'. If there is no photo in the public domain, then this photo should be retained. This copyright notice would appear to apply to all photos from the Australian parliamentary handbook, and I would therefore oppose deletion of any photo covered under this notice unless a reasonable alternative photo can be provided under a less restrictive licence. -- Takver ( talk) 13:24, 10 October 2008 (UTC) reply

"This photograph is from the Australian Parliamentary Handbook, and is held under Crown copyright by the Commonwealth of Australia. The responsible Commonwealth agency, AUSPIC, gave written permission on 2 August 2005 for this photograph to be used at Wikipedia (see following).

• Image is currently only used on a talk page. The image was uploaded in 2005 and subsequently tagged as GFDL-presumed. The addition to the talk page was in March 2007 asking if the image was of use to the article. Since the image does not appear to have been added to the article after notification (edit summaries are hit and miss in the history of the article), the license is questionalbe and (as far as I can tell) the image should be replaceable by someone easily. Jordan 1972 ( talk) 23:28, 8 October 2008 (UTC) reply
• The {{ GFDL-presumed}} tagging seems to have been a red herring, since the image was already tagged with {{ NoRightsReserved}} by the uploader. Anyway, for my own idiosyncratic reasons (I like it, and I might have a use for it if I ever get around to writing the image editing tutorial I've been planning), I've moved the image to Commons and deleted the local copy per CSD I8. — Ilmari Karonen ( talk) 13:13, 11 October 2008 (UTC) reply

The result of the debate was: - Delete - Though it may be for the noted article, there is no way of knowing if the subject name is correct and the image is still orphaned. Additionally I see that the absent uploader gave us a greyscale web-sized image with no Exif information and no details apart from the {{ pd-self}} template (and his other upload was deleted as an Orphaned fairuse image). This makes me suspect that the image is not free but is taken from a website somewhere - Peripitus (Talk) 06:00, 15 October 2008 (UTC) reply
