This non-free animated GIF is supposed to illustrate the relationship between two characters but it's removal would not detract from a reader's understanding of that concept and so fails WP:NFCC#8. There is no explanation why an animated GIF is needed so WP:NFCC#3 is also a problem. Whpq ( talk) 03:44, 20 March 2024 (UTC) reply

I have removed the gif image and now I think that it was not that useful for the article. Feel free to delete it. GreenishPickle! ( 🔔) 03:57, 20 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Invalid fair use on List of 2024 Indian Premier League personnel changes, as that is not a specific article on the auction itself, and so is not the logo of the article as claimed. As such, fails WP:NFCC#8 too. Joseph 2302 ( talk) 09:15, 20 March 2024 (UTC) reply

It is unclear on what grounds the base map is assumed to be out of copyright. Cypriot copyright terms apparently ended 50 years pma at URAA restoration date, and 50 years post-publication if published anonymously, but I don't see enough in this snippet to determine that this has been published anonymously in Cyprus before 1946. As the map could be redrawn by anyone, I think non-free use will be hard to justify. Felix QW ( talk) 13:31, 20 March 2024 (UTC) reply

  • Delete: With the copyright status of this image being as dubious and difficult to confirm as it is, I don't think the image can be kept, and certainly not under its' current free license. That said, even if the copyright status of the image in question was known with complete certainty, I concur with the nominator that it most likely would not pass WP:NFCC#1 (replaceability), as the map could be redrawn by a willing individual, and released under a free license. FHSIG13 TALK 03:00, 21 March 2024 (UTC) reply
There is currently a copy of the map and the front cover of book it came with at: https://www.etsy.com/in-en/listing/1296533078/cyprus-nicosia-visitors-street-guide.
I have taken screen dumps which I could post or load somewhere for the purpose of this discussion. I also have a copy of the book, although I am not sure where it is at the moment, as I scanned part of the map about 11 years ago when this article was loaded. The current web site says:
"Nicosia visitors street guide around 1940 with folded map inside". The front cover says title: Guide to Nicosia, published by M.L. Efthyvoulos, printed at Cosmos Press, Nicosia.
The map shows the "English School" which was replaced at this site by Wolsey Barracks before 1940 and also the municipality building is at its old site only, not on the bastion next to Metaxas Square (now Eleftheria Sq); also Metaxas Square is not shown at all. On another map dated 1952 in Keshishian's Romantic Cyprus 7th edition, all of these changes are shown.
Also, you will notice that the file Nicosia_Neighbourhoods.png covers only a small part of the map in the guide book and merely uses it has a base to place the coloured administrative divisions, which are defined in other works. The layout of the divisions and the codes to link it to the Wikipedia text are the purpose of the file and no information is abstracted from the Guide or its inserted map.
Please let me know if I should post this information elsewhere for the discussion Tom1955 ( talk) 22:23, 21 March 2024 (UTC) reply
Thank you very much for your input! Your research should indeed confirm that publication was before 1946. The remaining issue now is that copyright terms in Cyprus are determined by the date of death of the author, as long as the name of the author is at all known. So I wonder whether the title can be read as crediting M.L. Efthyvoulos with the map, or whether there is any other indication in the booklet or on the map (perhaps on the back) of who drew it. If the answer to both questions were "no", then it would indeed have been out of copyright in Cyprus in 1996 and we could keep the image! Felix QW ( talk) 16:42, 24 March 2024 (UTC) reply
@ Felix QW I would think that, as author of the book, M.L. Efthyvoulos would also be credited as author of the map, by the transitive property. That said, unless @ Tom1955 or another user is able to locate and provide information contradictory to the former (I have not been able to so far), before this discussion passes into WP:FFDO, I think that we'll have to assume the map is still under copyright and that therefore the image in question will have to be deleted on the grounds that it is replaceable by way of a redrawing.
