(Screenshot of a video game) That the player taps the touchscreen to move the character is an aspect that can be adequately described in prose without fair use visualization, if it need be explained at all. I had previously removed the image as lacking contextual significance (
WP:NFCC#8) but was reverted. A fair use image of the gameplay depicting concepts that cannot be adequately described through prose alone may be appropriate, but this is not that image.

- I wrote the text, which doesn't address the game's touch mechanics, nor are the touch mechanics unique or opaque enough from any other touch game to require a visualization. Feel free to replace it with an image of actual gameplay.

- Delete per NFCC#8: presence does not significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission would not be detrimental to that understanding.

- Fails
WP:NFCC#8: Article about an historic building (
The Brazen Head) is illustrated by a CC licensed image of building. Business logo (which does not appear on building anyway) does not significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission is not detrimental to that understanding.
- Fails
WP:NFCC#1: A CC licensed image of building is available and is already used.
- Fails
WP:NFCC#5: In the context of an article about a historic building, the logo used by the present owners only in their website is not encyclopedic.
- Should fail
WP:NFCC#7: The non-free image is only being used in the article because an editor has ignored NFCC#8 and repeatedly reverted to include the image.
Neil S. Walker (

- Keep The article is about both the business and the building. A business's logo is an acceptable fair use of an image in the infobox for identification of the business. It passes
WP:NFCC#1 because there is no free equivalent for the logo. A free image of the building cannot replace a logo and for that reason there are two separate infobox fields for
Template:Infobox building. It passes
WP:NFCC#5 because the article is also about the business, thus the logo being encyclopedic. It passes
WP:NFCC#7 because it is currently in use in the article. It passes
WP:NFCC#8 because it is being used for identification purposes of the business, it increases the readers' understanding of the business and its omission is detrimental to the understanding of the business. Overall, the businesses's logo is being used in the infobox for identification purposes of the business and is an acceptable fair use of the logo, just as it is for numerous other business articles across Wikipedia.

- A misapplication of the fair use criteria; there is no automatic entitlement to use non-free content in any article, and there is already a freely licensed image which clearly identifies the building and its use as a pub. A design used by the building's current owners—Stepmark Inns—on its website does not meet NFCC#8: "Criterion 8, which every non-free file must satisfy, requires that the image not merely be educational, but "significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic". This means, first, that the image must either address something that is discussed in the text of the page, or add in a meaningful and substantive way to the understanding of the overall topic of the page. It is not enough for the image to provide some additional information beyond what the text covers. Secondly, the image must make it significantly easier for the reader to understand what the page discusses, beyond what the text, alone, can convey." It is neither educational nor adds anything to a reader's understanding of the topic. Infobox fields—and infoboxes—are not mandatory; just because a parameter exists for a logo, it does not, and in many instances of historic buildings probably should not, mean it must be used. Also, the uploader was notified that there were issues with the use of the image on 3 November.

- Note to closing editor: This discussion should be relisted since the nominator failed to notify the uploader, me (the person who reverted the deletion and recommended starting a discussion here) or tagged the image on the article about this discussion. I have notified the uploader and tagged the image in the article. The article is on my watchlist, but that was not enough to know about this discussion.

Image has a restored copyright as it was published after the URAA date (1 January 1946 in Australia). This image fails NFCC#1 as it is replaceable; unless this image has been used for historical context, then this will need to be detailed with the non-free rationale.

- Christ, I forgot I ever uploaded this. I agree with Flickerd that under current law this no longer is appropriate to be published here.

unlikely to be uploader's own work, should be converted to fair use and given a proper source

- Delete There is a possibility that this is the uploader's own work, but it is clearly not the same as the crest used by the school: the colouring of the motto scroll is wrong and the colouring of the saltire is wrong. It is thus not an accurate representation of the crest used by the school.

this site has the crest and as noted by
user:Neil S Walker, it looks different than the crest uploaded. Conversion to fair use would not be appropriate with an inaccurate crest. --

Delete Weak keep Ambiguous copyright status. The second - currently used - file that was uploaded is obviously a cleaned up, cropped and monochromed version of the first. The first carries an annotation that the National Screen Service Corp exert control of the image's license and license it for display "only in connection with the exhibition of this picture at your theatre. Must be returned immediately thereafter!"
IANAL but my reading of Lawlor v. National Screen Service Corp. 349 U.S. 322 (1955) is that NSSC held exclusive rights over the distribution and licensing of NSS numbered (this one is 50-588) images.

- Reading Light show's comment below, I have to concur that, for all the information printed on the original version, there is not a clear and visible "copyright" notice. It is this precise "failure to comply with required formalities" that
places these press kit photos in the public domain in the U.S. Ambiguity remains about whether the rear of the image is endorsed with a copyright notice, but as this does not seem to have been the general practice, and given the amount of information printed on the obverse, I will accept that this may indeed be in the PD.

- Keep: :For studio publicity photos like this one, which includes the person's name, studio name, film name, licensing text, where it was printed, and more information, any copyright notice would have been on the front. If you look at any or all the other similar publicity photos with that information, when there was a notice it was on the front alongside the studio name. If you're still concerned, and do a copyright search for any year, you'll see that there are no publicity photos of him that were ever registered. And FWIW, I've never seen any film publicity photo that was ever registered. That "please return" wordage was for theaters, so they wouldn't misuse or sell photos. It was for the hardcopy of the photo, but unrelated to anything copyright related.
- Any studio printing up 10,000 press kits with such photos and mailing them worldwide, hoping for stories to be published with photos, would be accomplishing the exact opposite if it included a copyright notice warning the press they first need permission to reprint it. See
Film still. --
