The result of the discussion was: No consensus default keep Discussion ended 6 days ago. Recommend not IFDing this until it is orphaned. Consider discussing the merits of using an image of debatable origin on the articles that use it and possibly removing it from those articles. If it does become an orphan, then an IFD might go uncontested. The fact that this is a public domain image helped.

• I would like to see some evidence that this image really shows Sükhbaataryn Yanjmaa as claimed (and not from a movie still or whatever). The given source is notoriously unreliable. In the past, they included an image of a womain in a 19th century costume with the entry for Sorghaghtani Beki (13th century). There must be images of Yanjmaa available that are of better quality and with known original source and publication circumstances. -- Latebird ( talk) 00:36, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

http://www.radiofeminista.net/mayo07/notas/images/presid2.jpg this is here in her 40-50s. That picture is from the 1920 when Sukhbaatar was still around. The hat is much older hat. You can see the similarity of her faces. That is a very old picture, movies were not made back then. 71.237.70.49 ( talk) 05:41, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

There's no similarity recognisable in those two images, other than that they are both Mongolian (actually, the second one looks more native american to me, but that doesn't mean much). It is not good enough to just say "this is her". We need a reference (in both cases!) to a reliable publication, ie. the book that file was scanned from. She was a public figure, so that can't be so hard, can it? -- Latebird ( talk) 12:43, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

Ok here is the reference, http://www.guide2womenleaders.com/womeninpower/Womeninpower1940.htm, you can search "Yanjmaa" in there. Mongolia is not a developed country, so there aren't many photographs like Europe did, so reference and photo of any historical Mongol leader (early 1900s+) are very few and very low quality as you can see from these photos. This is definitely her. You can see the prominent cheekbones on both photos. The younger one has her cheekbone kind of concealed by that tassle hanging from both sides. The age difference is huge probably 30 years difference. First one is around early 20, second one probably around 50-60 year range. 71.237.70.49 ( talk) 14:59, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

As I have explicitly mentioned in my rationale, that is NOT a reliable source (and neither are the other "female leaders in history" sites that all copied text and images from each other). There must be photographs of her in books or other pulications (this one was also scanned from somewhere, right?), so there is no excuse to use an unsourced one. -- Latebird ( talk) 15:47, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

I guess this could be solved by finding a reliable source that shows the same picture of Yanjmaa as this womeninpower site. I.e. we don't need a different picture, we only need an additional source. Maybe something like Mongolian websites or picture books. Yaan ( talk) 15:13, 23 December 2008 (UTC) reply

Searching online was the first thing I did before submitting this here, and all I've found (on Google in Mongolian and English and with Tineye) were instances of those two, appaently all copied from each other (same or smaller resolution). Obviously, a sourced image from a book would be very welcome, no matter if it is the same (hopefully in better quality) or a different one. -- Latebird ( talk) 13:29, 24 December 2008 (UTC) reply

Caption in the article was removed by nominator and simply described the image, "Yuri Gargarin in Vostok 1". It seems that the historical context would be clear, and the lack of other similar pictures of the event, especially during the event, that this inclusion is warranted.

Oops, Twinkle removed the caption with my previous nsd nomination. I've crossed that part of my nomination out and I'll restore the missing caption in the article. Sorry about that!

However, fair use rationales must still explain why an image is essential in an article. Papa November ( talk) 15:37, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

The primary element of the Vostok 1 article is that this flight was the first time a human went into space. This photo is of that human, while he was in space. The image shows his attire (a spacesuit) and some of the cockpit in which he was encapsulated. With due respect to those who have concerns in this regard, the NFCC#8 "significance" of the image to the topic does not need any explanation; it is self-evident. The image documents the most important aspect of the event. ( sdsds - talk) 02:11, 22 December 2008 (UTC) reply

WP:NFCC#8 does not require that the image be "essential", merely that "its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding". The terms "significantly" and "detrimental" are relative and subjective. I believe that placing the actual flight of Vostok 1 in a visual context satisfies the first part of WP:NFCC#8 and removing it would satisfy the second part. I also note that a review of the image on 17 February 2008 deemed it likely to meed all the criteria of WP:NFCC. Seth ze ( talk) 00:46, 23 December 2008 (UTC) reply

User:sdsds, you have raised some useful points and they could be used to build a good fair use rationale. It must explain why this specific image is needed in that specific article. It's not good enough to just say "fair use in Vostok 1" and then copy/paste some generic text... at the moment, the rationale doesn't say anything different from the boilerplate copyright tag! There's no point arguing here that the image should be kept unless some attempt at a specific rationale has been made on the image description page. Papa November ( talk) 01:59, 23 December 2008 (UTC) reply

The rationale is lacking in detail. Have added the following (although I appear to have logged out in the meantime): "The use of the image significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic by portraying conditions inside the Vostok capsule and how the flight was presented to the public at the time. It also places the flight in its historical and technological context. Omission of the image would be detrimental to this understanding." Seth ze ( talk) 03:27, 23 December 2008 (UTC) reply

I've added some explanation of why the image is irreplaceable and moved it to a more prominent location in the article. I think that should be enough to keep the image now. Papa November ( talk) 10:28, 23 December 2008 (UTC) reply

• Invalid license tag: PD-ART only applies to faithful photographic reproductions of 2D artwork, but this is a photo of a statue and therefore qualifies for its own copyright.

Author of photo and date are not specified, and the source link is dead. Papa November ( talk) 13:22, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

I didn't actually upload it, I just wrote the original description. I looked it up in the Internet Archive and found the original source. It was duplicated by commons:File:Gaius_Julius_Caesar_(100-44_BC).JPG, so it's redundant now regardless. -- Mrwojo ( talk) 16:45, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

• The photo is mentioned, but merely saying that two people were photographed together does not justify the inclusion of that photo. This image shows nothing significant that merely mentioning the image's existence does not. Furthermore, it has high commercial value. J Milburn ( talk) 13:53, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

The commercial value you mention is subsumed by the fact that it was published in the paper and is widely available on the web. If you read the newspaper article you will see that this image is indeed their rationale for proof of the relationship, which was upheld by the PCC. To delete would be to deny the possibility for readers to make up their own mind. To mention the existence of a photograph, but not show it, is to deny the basis of a good and crucially accurate encyclopaedia, which we are all striving to create. I would strongly request that it is left intact. Captainclegg ( talk) 14:04, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

I agree with Captainclegg. These are both 'public' persona and famous in their own right. To have them linked like this and for it to be accurately sourced through a major newspaper is exactly what a good encyclopaedia is meant to be about. The commercial value argument surely does not work here as the photo has already been published (I too saw the article) and is widely available. And anyway, isn't our job as editors to show as much proof of a statement as possible? Wiki had a lousy reputation for accuracy. Don't lets hamstring ourselves by arguing that we shouldn't show proof when it is already in the public domain. Leave it in I say. Crowley666 ( talk) 14:30, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

Is it them? Yes. Is the story genuine? Apparently. Is it sourced? Yes. Does it back up the article? Yes. Has the image alraedy been seen worldwide? Yes (I saw it here in the US). Whats the problem? None. Leave it alone. Careinthecommunity ( talk) 14:40, 21 December 2008 (UTC) reply

• The statement can be sourced quite easily to the article (and already has been). Using the image as a source would require interpretation, which is original research. I don't follow your argument to allow readers to "make up their own mind". We mention the existence of many works, but don't show them- we're a free content encyclopedia- imagine if we were to show the full text of every novel we have an article on, or include an image of every painting in a long list of copyrighted works. Wikipedia is not about showing proof, at all- it is the job of secondary sources to show proof, we just report what they have said. In response to Careinthecommunity, the problem is that the image is non-free, and the article would be fine without it. Yes, it's them, yes, the article mentions them, but do we really need a fair use image of every meeting that Mills has had in her life? Do we really need to "borrow" pictures from every tabloid journalist's scoop? J Milburn ( talk) 00:36, 22 December 2008 (UTC) reply

I would say "Yes", why not? and according to other sources, I gather that it is considerably more than a "meeting that Mills has had". Its out there. It exists. Someone else ( a journo) has done the leg-work (excuse the pun!) It is not libellous or otherwise untrue. It is doing no harm and I would rather that proof was shown, than not. What's wrong with it being there? I think that there are other things more important to concern ourselves with. Let It Be and enjoy Christmas. I gather you lot are having a really bad time over there. Good luck. Careinthecommunity ( talk) 00:56, 22 December 2008 (UTC) reply

Personally, I am interested in the story and like the fact that the photo, that J Milburn has some objection to, which is in the public domain anyway, is there to be viewed. I have never read of a Wiki user/editor complaining about TO MUCH info before! Crowley666 ( talk) 01:02, 22 December 2008 (UTC) reply

• Delete - Inclusion of the image does not satisfy NFCC#8 - the image is not required for reader's understanding (the reference proves they were seen together) and certainly does not significantly increase it. - Peripitus (Talk) 09:31, 23 December 2008 (UTC) reply
