Files for discussion (FfD) is for listing images and other media files which may be unneeded or have either free content or non-free content usage concerns. Files that have been listed here for more than 7 days are eligible for either deletion or removal from pages if either a consensus to do so has been reached or the nominator specifically requests deletion or removal and no objections are raised. To quote the non-free content criteria, "it is the duty of users seeking to include or retain content to provide a valid rationale; those seeking to remove or delete it are not required to show that one cannot be created." For undeletion requests, first contact the administrator who deleted the file. If you are unable to resolve the issue with that administrator, the matter should be brought to deletion review. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
What not to list here[edit]
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Instructions for listing files for discussion Use Twinkle. If you can't, follow these steps to do manually:
State the reasons why the file should be deleted, removed, or altered. Also, state what specific action should be taken, preferably in bold text; this allows discussion participants and closers to better understand the purpose of the nomination. Some examples of nomination statements include:
Examples of what files you may request for discussion, deletion or change here:
These are not the only "valid" reasons to discuss a file. Any properly explained reason can be used. The above list comprises the most common and uncontroversial ones. If you remove a file from an article, list the article from which you removed it so there can be community review of whether the file should be deleted. This is necessary because file pages do not remember the articles on which the file were previously used. If you have general questions about a file and/or its copyright status, then please start a new thread at Media Copyright Questions. |

Instructions for discussion participation[edit]
In responding to the deletion nomination, consider adding your post in the format
* '''View''' - Reasoning ... -- ~~~~
where "Delete", "Keep", "Comment", or something else may replace "View". In posting their reasoning, many editors use abbreviations and cite to the following:
- Wikipedia:NFCC#1 – Free equivalent is/is not available
- Wikipedia:NFCC#8 – Significance
- Wikipedia:Non-free content#Images 2 – Unacceptable image use
Remember that polling is not a substitute for discussion. Wikipedia's primary method of determining consensus is through editing and discussion, not voting. Although editors occasionally use straw polls in an attempt to test for consensus, polls or surveys sometimes impede rather than assist discussion. They should be used with caution, and are no more binding than any other consensus decision.
Also remember that if you believe that an image is potentially useful for other projects and should be moved to Wikimedia Commons, in lieu of responding '''Move to Commons'''
, you can move it there yourself. See Wikipedia:Moving files to the Commons for instructions.
Instructions for closing discussions[edit]
Nominations should be processed for closing after being listed for 7 days following the steps here.

The following discussions are more than 7 days old and are pending processing by an administrator:

- File:Know Your Enemy 2022 version.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by The wub (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).
There's already an album cover at the article, a second one doesn't significantly improve contextual understanding per WP:NFCC8. —Matrix(!) {user - talk? - uselesscontributions} 18:09, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, the 2022 version cover is significantly different from the original release (as is the album content itself). So inclusion meets NFCC8 by allowing this version of the album to be identified, and its omission would be detrimental to understanding. Where alternative covers are significantly different this is a commonly accepted use. Quoting Template:Infobox album#Template:Extra album cover:
If the album has been released with different album covers, they can be added to the infobox using this template. However, per WP:NFCC#3 use of non-free content is to be minimal, and not to be used if one item can convey equivalent significant information. An alternative cover that is significantly different from the original and is widely distributed and/or replaces the original has generally been held to pass this criterion.
the wub "?!" 17:11, 8 June 2024 (UTC)- Yes, the omission would be detrimental to the user's understanding, but we also have to balance the idea that the minimum amount of fair use material should be used on Wikipedia. You quoted that it must be
significantly different
, however both covers use the same style, and the background image is the same barring the colours. There is not that big of a difference that would leave a reader confused IMO. —Matrix(!) {user - talk? -uselesscontributions} 18:25, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, the omission would be detrimental to the user's understanding, but we also have to balance the idea that the minimum amount of fair use material should be used on Wikipedia. You quoted that it must be
- Neutral – Sure, the 2022 cover looks different from the original, but I don't think it's a sufficient reason to keep the alternative cover. On the other hand, the 2022 release was reworked or remastered or remixed (whatever you call it) and expanded as the double album as originally intended. I thought about originally voting "delete" because the alternative cover doesn't provide info substantially different from the other. However, differences between original and 2022 releases seen much greater than I thought, and deleting the alternative cover would leave readers much curious or assuming that the standard cover art is also used for the 2022 release. —George Ho (talk) 18:04, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

File:Janus Records logo.jpg[edit]
- File:Janus Records logo.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Zeddedm (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).
The shape may seem unusual, but it's easier to draw with a ruler or stencil or any other precisive material. Also, it's American-made most likely. Should be transferred to Commons if no objections to tag the logo as free to use. George Ho (talk) 04:51, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Relicense: No clear precedence why it is copyrightable or evidence of copyrightable elements. Kys5g talk! 13:42, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Recently tagged as free to use in the US. Unsure whether it's copyrighted in the UK. Should still be {{PD-ineligible-USonly}} by default if no replies have been made. George Ho (talk) 21:10, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
File:Medusa-ClashofTitans.jpg[edit]
- File:Medusa-ClashofTitans.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by TAnthony (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).
May not contextually signify both the Clash of the Titans (1981 film) and cultural depictions of Medusa and Gorgons. Plenty of Medusa depictions in pop culture, especially films. No indication that one depiction is more significant than any other. George Ho (talk) 21:15, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete from both per WP:NFCC#8. No substantial discussion of Medusa's appearance in Clash of the Titans (1981 film), except a mention of all the creatures made with stop-motion animation. It's not doing much in Cultural depictions of Medusa and Gorgons, and I've added a PD image to replace it in illustrating the "Screen" section. hinnk (talk) 01:41, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. I don't think NFCC#8 supports deletion, because the depiction does help the reader visualize what is described; and the claim that there's no substantial discussion is clearly wrong, since the description explains not only how Medusa was realized, but also how that depiction differs from other versions. Clash of the Titans is a culturally-significant film, more so than most of the other examples (certainly more than a blurry image from a 1925 silent picture that hardly anybody alive has seen), and as such it benefits readers to have illustrations. The image is small and unlikely to infringe on any rights held by the film's copyright holder, or anyone else who might have copyright on the character or image. P Aculeius (talk) 08:01, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. The most substantive discussion of Medusa in both articles, is as P Aculeius says, about how her portrayal differs from other versions. In particular it discusses how the CoT Medusa has "the lower body of a snake rather than legs", which isn't shown in the illustration! To argue that it passes NFCC#8 I would expect an image to illustrate the one visually distinctive thing about the character actually discussed in the article. Caeciliusinhorto-public (talk) 08:14, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

- File:Oil portrait of Alexander Buchan, before 1769.png (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Kusma (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).
Non-free file may actually be free. From what the uploader provided, this painting is likely 18th century, so {{PD-old-assumed}} would apply even though the author is unknown. Wikiacc (¶) 03:05, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- The image was earlier discussed here, where Kusma wrote: "as it was first published in 1979, it may be protected by copyright". Note also that the 1979 publication was in the United Kingdom, not the United States. So I doubt this work was eligible for restoration under the URAA, but this is worth discussing. Wikiacc (¶) 03:12, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- Wikimedia Commons would probably accept this image based on sloppy interpretation of rules, but I see no evidence that it is PD. From c:Commons:Copyright rules by territory/United Kingdom, it seems to be in copyright in the UK until 2029 or 2049, and it was not PD in 1996. —Kusma (talk) 05:09, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, unless we can establish either that the painting was in fact published before 1979, or the identity of the artist, under the UK's bizarre copyright rules it remains in copyright until 2049 here. Caeciliusinhorto-public (talk) 10:46, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- The other alternative would be that it was never published at all; This is because publication requires the consent of the copyright holder. So it is unlikely that it having been made available to the public in 1979 counts as publication. This would render it {{PD-US-unpublished}}. Felix QW (talk) 12:25, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- This reasoning only applies to the US, of course, but that is good enough for a local file. Felix QW (talk) 13:10, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

- File:Back in My Arms Again.ogg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by FrickFrack (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).

File:Unchained Melody 1955 sheet music.jpg[edit]
- File:Unchained Melody 1955 sheet music.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by George Ho (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).
I uploaded a sheet music cover of Unchained Melody as the lead/infobox image, but I've wondered recently whether it's needed and compliant with NFCC, especially "contextual significance" criterion. If not, then I won't object its deletion. George Ho (talk) 04:08, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
File:On The Radio (Belgium).jpg[edit]
- File:On The Radio (Belgium).jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Karldaviesfan (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).
Displaying at least two releases may fail WP:NFCC#3a. This is a Belgian release (Discogs) and is a reverse version of the parent compilation album's front cover. Should use the other image (File:On the radio donna summer US single variant A.png) instead. George Ho (talk) 05:12, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
File:Starship Versions.jpeg[edit]
- File:Starship Versions.jpeg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Thistheyear2023 (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).
Non-free file being used as fair use, but missing fair use rationale box (not completely required) and the rationale provided is incomplete (missing WP:NFCCP#10c). This file does not meet WP:NFCCP#8 "Contextual Significance" - it is not necessary to enhance the reader's understanding of the versions of the SpaceX Starship; the different sized rockets can be visualized based on the article's content and the data could be summarized without needing to show this slide. Consigned (talk) 15:15, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete The table has already been swapped out in SpaceX Starship#Versions (WP:NFCCP#7 fell). I've also found a transparent higher-res version of Starship V3 in an FAA publication, so WP:NFCCP#1 is gone too now since a V2 graphic could be created from File:Starship stack V3.png.

File is on Commons with the same name but have a keep local. However the uploader that added the keep local is deceased and therefore not active anymore. So the reason for the keep local no longer exist. It was suggested on Wikipedia:Files_for_discussion/2024_April_24#File:4-cube_4^4.png that files are deleted via a PROD. But the file was proposed for deletion in 2009 so I can’t do a PROD. Back then it was suggested to delete because it was obsolete and replaced by an svg. It was kept because uploader requested and it was used as a source for the svg. Now the file is moved to Commons so there is no longer any issue in deleting the file.

File:Sgtpepperslonelyheartsclubbandsinglecover.jpg[edit]
- File:Sgtpepperslonelyheartsclubbandsinglecover.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by ChillyPepper (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).
The front sleeve of the 1978 single release looks similar to the Beatles' parent album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, but it's no longer used in the song article. It's currently used in With a Little Help from My Friends, but to me, its ability to contextually signify the whole song isn't clear. More convincing images would've been ones associated with the song, like the song title itself: e.g. a back cover or a side label of the release itself (45cat), or a side label of another (45cat).

As I'm beginning to believe, the whole side label may have elements that aren't "original" enough for US copyright. Nonetheless, it may or may not be "original" enough for the (longtime) UK copyright. Should be "PD-ineligible-USonly" if no consensus has yet decided to transfer it to Commons.

Non-fee logo claimed to be used for identification in the infobox at the top of the article but is instead in a secondary infobox at the bottom of the article. The logo is not the subject of any sourced significant critical commentary. Fails WP:NFCC#8. Whpq (talk) 17:43, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

Fails WP:NFCCP criterion 8, specifically the article does not need a photo for the reader to be able to understand that when captured Rudolph had dyed hair and a moustache, since text alone does that perfectly well.

File:Canadian Soccer Association logo.svg[edit]
- File:Canadian Soccer Association logo.svg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Carniolus (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).
This is the logo of the Canadian Soccer Association, not the national soccer teams themselves, thus this image cannot be used on the team articles. We have had many similar FFDs for sports association logos with consensus that they can't be used on team articles (WP:GETTY point 17). The CSA page is using a different version of this image, thus this version does not need to be kept, as it has no valid uses Joseph2302 (talk) 15:49, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep this was the logo in use at the Canadian Soccer Association (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) page until it was removed on June 18 [1]. Thus it should be restored to that article, with the appropriate FUR as the logo for the organization. The file page used to have the correct FUR earlier this month until it was changed on June 16 [2] by the vandal Livermento (talk · contribs) -- 64.229.90.32 (talk) 03:58, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep and restore to Canadian Soccer Association page per above. Idiosincrático (talk) 07:04, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- Comment am fine with it being added back to Canadian Soccer Association if the mess of the non free content on there is fixed, and as long as there is a clear note that it's only allowed to be used there (and any changes to try and use it in Canada teams articles are reverted). Joseph2302 (talk) 16:28, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- So, you are saying that you only accept keeping fair use media if Wikipedia bans all once and future vandals, and vet all editors with a test for their media use behavior limits? That would be equivalent to banning all fair-use media on Wikipedia, and turning Wikipedia into the gated community of Citizendium. There is only 1 image at Canadian Soccer Association currently, and it is from COMMONS. Last year there were only two images, this logo and the image from COMMONS. So I don't see what you mean by mess of non-free media. -- 64.229.90.32 (talk) 20:40, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

This looks to be a generic logo, not a logo specifically for the 2023 event, and thus violates WP:GETTY point 14 and WP:NFCC#8. Nothing on this logo is 2023 specific as it has no reference to the year 2023 on it. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:15, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

File:Pavlov's Dog - Julia.mp3[edit]
File:Pavlov's_Dog_-_Julia.mp3 is a lower-quality version of File:Pavlov's_Dog_-_Julia.opus(same file base name, .opus extension). The original MP3 was so badly compressed (not only low bitrate, inadequate encoder or encoder configuration) that the point of illustrating what the Song/Album/Artist "sounds like" was completely missed. A re-encoding from the original file with a less catastrophic coder was inevitable to justify its inclusion. Sadly, that can't be done using the "new version of this file" dialog.
The one Wikipedia usage, Pampered Menial, has been updated to use the non-catastrophic version of the snippet (all 19.8s of it). So, the original MP3 is redundant and can only not be nominated for speedy deletion because it's not the same file format. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MüllerMarcus (talk • contribs) 14:47, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
