Replaceable fair use File:Marc Garneau - Minister of Transport, Canada.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Marc Garneau - Minister of Transport, Canada.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 01:49, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi, I thought it was a nicer picture of Marc Garneau than the one that was there at the time. Marc Garneau is a nice man. Marc Garneau deserves a nice picture. This picture is from his page on the Parliamentary website and I don't see any issues which would result in litigation. However I'm tired and I can't be bothered playing lawyer so go ahead and delete the image; Wikipedia is, after all, just a wiki.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Http,--www.parl.gc.ca-Parliamentarians-Images-OfficialMPPhotos-42-GarneauMarc Lib.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Http,--www.parl.gc.ca-Parliamentarians-Images-OfficialMPPhotos-42-GarneauMarc Lib.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted content borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Whpq (talk) 01:51, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
