- File:Norwegian Navy Corporal in M-2000 uniform.jpg (delete | talk | history | logs) - uploaded by Damsleth (notify | contribs).
- This picture of a Norwegian Leading Rate is not relevant for the article Ensign (rank) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ensign_(rank). Because the article is about an American officer rank, and a Leading Rate is a private rank in Norway.
- Other than that I would like you to delete this picture from wikipedia, because this soldier is not according to dress regulations. It seams to me that he has made up his own. He has Norwegian Army service field marks on his jacket (which is not allowed to bear in the Navy at all), the misplaced skill mark is not allowed to bear on a light field uniform as he does and the pen is not allowed to bear visible, it's supposed to go inside the pocket.

- No- the image that Chris has labelled Mars Mill, is not. This is the Marland Mill next door and behind it you see the water tower of Mars. See 1932 1:10560 OS map. This goes to show how careful one needs to be in illustrating a mill. All the images I have uploaded have been labelled by the 1950s owner so they are definitive. Both these mills have now been demolished and the image I have presented is as yet the only verifiable image.

- In researching available images, I have come across several references to the interior of this mill and we may have to loose the uploaded image as there may be a collection that could do the job of the one image-or it may be that this mill has more history available than I suspected and than it becomes more obvious why the proposed alternative is lacking. I suggest we hold till that is established.

- The photographs of these mills are replaceable as the buildings are still in existence. PhilKnight (talk) 12:20, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- These are images of working cotton mills not just the shell or hulk that remains today- only the hulk can be photographed today-thus they are not replaceable. By 1960, the LCC was in terminal decline, it was taken over by Courtaulds, which split and the textile division was taken over twice more. It is doubtful if the copyright holder even knows of these images- if we can determine who holds the copyright. Change of use of a cotton mill can mean that the chimney and engine house are destroyed, and the top two or so floors are removed, if it does not, that too is significant. The hulk, whether abandoned or utilised does not look the same as the working mill. These 53 working mills represent, about a third of the spinning capacity of the industry in 1950; 104 potentially viable mills were purchased in the 1920's by government intervention (LCC being a quasi-governmental company) and these were the only ones to be still in production in 1950. Now there are none. These images represent the notable work of P S Stott, George Stott and other Oldham architects- it is disrespectful to them to show their work when it has been abandoned, downgraded and neglected. --ClemRutter (talk) 15:04, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- These are non-free images used in List of mills owned by the Lancashire Cotton Corporation Limited. To the untrained eye, there really isn't much difference between each image. How much more visual information is gained by seeing each one? over and over again... (and they may be 'working', but that cannot be seen readily from the images. A facade of a building is still a facade of a building, regardless what may be going on inside...) Not to mention NFC related to lists/galleries. I don't see why we need all of these images on the list page. If each mill had it's own article, and it was not possible to take a contemporary photograph, then I could see a use in resorting to non-free images. But in the current context, I see this situation as an abuse of non-free imagery. -Andrew c [talk] 15:28, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment -- Copyright in historical images is a nightmare. Can we need keep them until some copyright holder objects?

- there is no reason to delete this. It is a drawing of an ancient inscription. We have tons of such images claiming "PD, author died more than 70 years ago". Deleting it because in this case somebody went to the pains of establishing who made the drawing is ridiculous. If I had never added that reference and just claimed "PD, author died more than 70 years ago", it would never have occurred to Stifle to list it for deletion. On the legalistic side, even if there is any original work in this strictly reproductive drawing of the inscription (which I doubt), it would easily fall under fair use for any article discussing the inscription. --dab (𒁳) 20:53, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- The transcript was published in 1938. The question whether transcripts (of public domain materials) are copyrightable usually gets a negative answer. I can find the specific ruling, but since the image was already deleted and I don't plan to file a deletion review request, it's a waste of time. Fuzzy (talk) 15:57, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- There's no fair-use rationale, not even a caption in the article! And does anyone really believe that there is no way a free version could ever be made? The alphabet isn't copyrighted, just the image. Any schmoe with a pencil or Illustrator can make their own. Delete ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 02:45, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please keep this drawing as it is particularly interesting due to the Maltese/Phoenician/Aryan/Old British Cross which is shown next to the inscription. Square crosses are found on many pre-christian British inscriptions/monuments as well as in Phoenician/Hittite/Syrian/Old Indo European sites.

- I feel that this image fails WP:NFCC#8 as it merely depicts the artists without adding to readers' understanding of the article Stifle (talk) 18:21, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Kindly delete Although Dan56 tries to improve the fair use, I still feel it fails to meet the criteria. --Efe (talk) 23:52, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
