• Invalid Fair Use rationale. As I assessed this case as a clearcut violation I undertook originally to simply remove the image from the page where it has been used and tagging the file with {{ orfud}}. These edits were however reverted [1] [2] by another user, so I see no other option than to burden the FfD page with this matter. meco ( talk) 09:05, 3 September 2010 (UTC) reply

  Could you please by more specific about why you feel that the fair use rationale is invalid? Regards, -- Kjetil_r 10:31, 3 September 2010 (UTC) reply

  If you read examples of unacceptable use for un-free images you will find "A magazine or book cover, to illustrate the article on the person whose photograph is on the cover. However, if the cover itself is the subject of sourced discussion in the article, it may be appropriate if placed inline next to the commentary." For the use to be covered there would have to be in-depth discussion of that particular newspaper front page in the article that warranted the display of the front page for clarity. As it stands no extra, significantly no essential, information is conveyed by the use of that image except that it serves to illustrate what the article mentions. Unless standards have shifted significantly since I was more heavily involved in Fair Use deletions, consensus requires that the discussion would be considerably impeded without the display of the image. I have requested for the people over at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions to comment on this also. __ meco ( talk) 13:01, 3 September 2010 (UTC) reply

• Delete: clearly fails WP:NFCC#8 because keeping the image does not increase the reader's understanding of the topic itself and its removal will not be detrimental to that understanding. There is also no critical commentary about the image itself and any such prose added would likely still not get it past NFCC#8. ww2censor ( talk) 13:23, 3 September 2010 (UTC) reply

• Non-free image used in the iPad infobox that could be replaced with a cropped version of File:IPad_docked.jpg WOSlinker ( talk) 11:54, 3 September 2010 (UTC) reply

• The file WOSlinker claims is a suitable replacement has a different and highly personalised screen – as has been pointed out in the image copyright reasons for use or the TalkIIPad – the manufacturers default home screen is of the essence of the device, is copyrighted by them, and the image released by them for uses such as here. It's also been up there for a month and has been challenged presumeably because I just changed it, reducing the border space around it to make it less promotional. Trev M   ~  14:36, 3 September 2010 (UTC) reply

• The reason I challenged it is because I've upladed a similar sort of image for the Samsung Galaxy Tab ( File:Samsung Galaxy Tab.jpg) and it is currently being contested as well and since both images are essentically covering the same purpose, I thought that it's only fair to nominate this image as well. -- WOSlinker ( talk) 14:40, 3 September 2010 (UTC) reply

Why complicate matters in this way? Everyone except you – even the copyright owner – is happy at the moment. But I've put a note up on the talk page to see if anyone can come up with a better image. There's actually a category of iPad images but I've not got time or bandwidth to search and select from it. Trev M   ~  15:46, 3 September 2010 (UTC) reply

This is just a discussion at the moment. This image could still end up being kept. -- WOSlinker ( talk) 15:52, 3 September 2010 (UTC) reply

So an image that you uploaded has been called out and therefore you decided to go after another since yours couldn't be here? That's rather pointy.-- Terrillja _talk 00:47, 4 September 2010 (UTC) reply

Keep OK the flaw with the iPad image you have suggested is that it has a computer in the background - which we'd need to crop out and remove the background to create an equivalent image. If we did so then that would produce something acceptable for the infobox. However then if there are other programs other than the default ones arguably we'd be advertising those programs and/or we'd have a fair use image anyway as Apple's icons are copyrighted computer software.

We could attempt to have a screenshot without the screen on, but that wouldn't really show the device properly.

In my view the best place to get pictures is from Apple's PR website as fair use, and which Apple allow to be used in the media, however if people aren't bothered by the 'advertising' point, then we could use a different screenshot of the iPad in action. -- Eraserhead1 < talk> 08:59, 4 September 2010 (UTC) reply

Ok, I'm going to withdraw the nomination, although there would be advantages to a photo of the device rather than a publicity image as the photo could be a lot higher resolution. -- WOSlinker ( talk) 16:06, 4 September 2010 (UTC) reply
