The result of the discussion was: delete. The keep !votes failed to adequately explain based on policy ( WP:NFCC#8) about why we need to include a non-free image of the signing ceremony when the picture's specific details are neither discussed in the article nor in the caption. In addition, the replacement image was unsourced, and therefore had to be discounted entirely, as I would have had to delete the replacement image regardless of the outcome of this discussion (thus this close was made as if the original, sourced image were still the active image).

Sorry JMilburn, you clearly seem to have no serious intention here other than attacking or questioning valuable content to Wikipedia. The Signing Ceremony is a clearcut historic event specifically illustrating location and time of a new era in the history of the European Union. You arguments demonstrate that you have not understood the purpose of images at Wikipedia in general. Seniorfox ( talk) 11:20, 30 November 2010 (UTC) reply
The result of the discussion was: delete. The keep arguments failed to indicate via policy exactly how understanding of the concept would be hindered by not having this photo present. Just because an image is historic does not make it any more or less acceptable as a non-free image. In other words, one does not get a free pass on non-free by claiming "historic". I am not considering the presence of another, similar image that exists on Wikipedia, nor its uses. I am only considering this image in its use on European Union.
