Replaceable by free image of this activity per WP:NFCC#1. If the League Against Cruel Sports could obtain an image of this, so could we - or the LASC could release their image under free license. Kelly ^hi! 00:11, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Regrettably the image is not replaceable - the organisers of hare coursing events do not generally permit photography. The background to this image is this: that the League Against Cruel Sports purchased a commercial image with permission to use it on a leaflet. and then distributed the leaflet. They did not buy general use rights for the image and therefore cannot release the image. The leaflet they produced, however, is in the public domain. MikeHobday (talk) 07:02, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

delete while it may be difficult to get a replacement, "do not generally permit photography" does not mean it is impossible. Also fails wp:nfc#8, as it doesnt really show anything abou the geographic differences in coursing Fasach Nua (talk) 06:28, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can't say much more about the former point, but you are incorrect with regard to the latter. It shows muzzled coursing which is a key geographic distinction in Irish coursing. MikeHobday (talk) 05:21, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If the only difference being displayed is muzzles, would it be possible to use a term like "The dogs wear muzzles" (WP:NFC#1 Fasach Nua (talk) 07:15, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The test in policy is "Could the subject be adequately conveyed by text without using the image at all?" I'm not sure what "adequately" means. Certainly, the image adds significantly to the encyclopaedic purpose, but is that enough? MikeHobday (talk) 09:44, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Fails several NFCC criteria, all of which are required. Fails NFCC#1: as an event still practiced, a free alternative could be acquired; NFCC makes no consideration of the ease of obtaining a free alternative or whether subterfuge would be needed (i.e. sneaking in a camera); Fails NFCC#3B: uses greater portion of copyrighted work than is needed to illustrate muzzled coursing (i.e. unnecessarily includes non-free logo in lower left corner). Fails NFCC#8: no significant contribution to our understanding. Given that we have numerous free images of coursing (see Hare coursing), how does seeing the dogs muzzled add anything meaningful to our understanding or anything significant above and beyond what is already there?

Solely on the NFCC#3B issue, I have seen a copy of the email that led to OTRS ticket [1] and that email gave permission for use of the logo in respect of this image. Can someone with OTRS access confirm? MikeHobday (talk) 23:43, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Uploader indicated that permission had been acquired and was directed to WP:COPYREQ back in January. Uploader was reminded again when Heuschrecke 10 came to FAC in March. It's concerning that no steps to file permission with OTRS have been taken. This is to say nothing of the fact that the source is quite unlikely to be the copyright holder (I doubt Achtung Panzer webmasters were snapping photos in 1940s Germany).

Delete. It is probably a snap from Google Earth, Google Maps, or some article about the subject, such as PCWorld.ca - "The Strangest Sights in Google Earth" . Besides, the photoshopping is awkward. --AVM (talk) 17:03, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I agree --RayqayzaDialgaWeird2210 23:56, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure I agree that this image makes no difference to the article. The characters' looks are well known. This image shows how WoW is supposed to have affected them. (1) they're all fat and pimply, (2) they're in a computer lab, not a place we'd expect them to frequent. - Denimadept (talk) 16:56, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll acquiesce that I'm not familiar with South Park or its characters, except to recognize the main ones. While the image does illustrate the characters' adjusted appearances, is it sufficiently indescribable so as to require this copyrighted imagery? I lean towards doubting that. Further, the computer lab aspect you bring up is neither mentioned nor referenced in the article. — pd_THOR ^{| =/\=} | 17:18, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's not mentioned in the article directly, perhaps. See the second paragraph under "Plot". It's an illustration adding to the depth of what is described in the article, therefore it is adding to the article. I'd agree it was useless if the article itself covered that specific scene in excruciating detail, but the picture is simpler and more direct, which is the point of including an image. If Comedy Central and South Park Studios don't complain, I suggest leaving this alone, perhaps moving the image to the infobox to replace the one removed earlier. - Denimadept (talk) 18:04, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

But that's the crux of WP:NFCC#1: if something needs to be covered, but can be done with free content as opposed to non-free, then the non-free isn't used. The scene is already covered in a sufficient fashion textually, and doesn't need to use another's copyrighted material. In the grander scheme, I don't see how this image significantly contributes to the understanding of the article as a whole; it does nicely illustrate it, but that doesn't meet muster. Of course, FWIW, I'm just providing my input and interpretation here. — pd_THOR ^{| =/\=} | 18:28, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Understood, and no offense taken. I didn't include either screen shot, though I can understand why they're there. You'll note that I'm not defending the other one at all. I'm not sure the policy you reference applies since there can be no such free source for a screen shot from a recent episode of a program. If the program were out of copyright, that'd be different, of course. I suggest "fair use" works for a single screen shot unless challenged by the holder(s). - Denimadept (talk) 19:02, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

delete - The image does improve the article from an asthetic point of view, however it does not significantly increase the readers' understanding WP:NFC#8, and can be described with gfdl text WP:NFC#1 Fasach Nua (talk) 06:31, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
