Wikipedia:Files for deletion

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  (Redirected from Wikipedia:FFD)
Jump to: navigation, search

Files for deletion (FfD) is for listing images and other media files which are unneeded. Files that have been listed here for more than 7 days are eligible for deletion if either a consensus to do so has been reached or no objections to deletion have been 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.

If you have questions if something should be deleted, consider asking at Media Copyright Questions.

Examples of what you may request here


  • Obsolete – The file has been replaced by a better version.
  • Orphan – The file is not used on any pages in Wikipedia.
  • Unencyclopedic – The file doesn't seem likely to be useful in any Wikimedia project.
  • Low quality – The file is of an extremely low resolution, distorted, or has other physical image quality concerns.
  • Copyright violation – The file might be used in violation of copyright.
  • NFCC violation – The file is used under a claim of fair use but does not meet the requirements.

What not to list here[edit]

  1. For speedy deletion candidates, do not use this page; instead use one of the speedy deletion templates. See the criteria for speedy deletion. These are: duplicates (where both files are on Wikipedia), thumbnails, broken files, non-existent files, non-commercial, "by permission" files and files which are not an image, sound file or video clip and have no encyclopedic use.
  2. Files that have no source, have an unknown copyright, are unused or replaceable non-free, or are non-free without rationale can be marked so that they will be deleted after a week, and should not be listed on this page. Add one of the following to the file page:
    1. {{subst:nsd}} if a file has no source indicated
    2. {{subst:nld}} if a file has a source but no licensing information
    3. {{subst:orfud}} if a file has a non-free copyright tag but isn't used in any articles
    4. {{subst:rfu}} if a file has a non-free copyright tag but could be replaced by a free file
    5. {{subst:dfu|reason}} if a file has a non-free copyright tag but the rationale isn't sufficient or is disputed
    6. {{subst:frn}} if a file has no non-free use rationale
    If the source or licensing information of an image marked as being freely licensed is disputed, please list the file on Possibly unfree files
  3. Redundant or duplicate files do not have to be listed here. Please use
    1. {{isd|Full name of file excluding the "File:" prefix}} for speedy deletion if the other file is on Wikipedia, not on Commons
    2. {{now commons|File:NEW FILENAME}} if the file now exists on Commons, or {{now commons}} for files with the same name on Commons. (Don't nominate protected images, they are usually locally uploaded and protected since they are used in an interface message or in a highly used template, thus they are high-risk.)
  4. For blatant copyright infringements, use speedy deletion by tagging the file {{db-f9}}
  5. Suspected copyright violations shouldn't be listed here.
    1. If a file is listed as public domain or under a free license, but lacks verification of this (either by an OTRS ticket number or a notice on the source website), tag it as {{subst:npd}}.
    2. For other suspected copyright infringements or licensing issues, use Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files.
  6. Files that are hosted on Wikimedia Commons cannot be deleted via this process. Please use the Commons deletion page instead.
  7. Description pages with no local file, even though they are in the file namespace, should not be listed here.
    1. Redirects should be treated as in any other namespace: if no speedy deletion criteria apply, they should be listed at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion.
    2. Local description pages for files hosted on Commons are usually speedy-deletable under criterion F2; use {{db-nofile}}.
    3. Local description pages with no associated file are speedy-deletable under criterion G8; use {{db-imagepage}}.
    4. Any other deletion of a description page with no local file should be listed at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion.
  8. If a file is appropriately licensed and could be usable elsewhere, consider copying it to the Wikimedia Commons instead of listing it for deletion. Once copied to the Commons, it is eligible for speedy deletion per criterion 8 for files.
  9. If you are the uploader of the image, tag it with {{db-author}}.

Instructions for listing files for deletion

To list a file:

1
Edit the file page.

Add {{ffd|log=2014 January 25}} to the file page.
2
Create its FfD subsection.

Follow this edit link and list the file using {{subst:ffd2|File_name.ext|Uploader= |Reason= }} ~~~~

Leave the subject heading blank.

If the file has been replaced by another file, name the file that replaced it in your reason for deletion. Refer below for a list of other common reasons.

For listing additional files with the same reason, edit the first file section and use {{subst:ffd2a|File_name.ext|Uploader= }}
3
Give due notice.

Inform the uploader by adding a message to their talk page using {{subst:fdw|File_name.ext}}

  • Remember to replace "File_name.ext" with the name of the image or media
  • For multiple images by the same user, use {{subst:fdw-multi|First_file.ext|Second_file.ext|Third_file.ext}} ~~~~ (can handle up to 26)

If the image is in use, also consider adding {{ifdc|File_name.ext|log=2014 January 25}} to the caption(s), or adding a notice to the article talk pages. Consider also notifying relevant WikiProjects of the discussion.

State the reasons why the file should be deleted. Some common reasons are:

  • Obsolete - The file has been replaced by a better version. Indicate the new file name (often abbreviated OB)
  • Orphan - The file is not used on any pages in Wikipedia. (If the file is only available under "fair use", please use {{subst:orfud}} instead). Please consider moving "good" free licensed files to Commons rather than outright deleting them, other projects may find a use for them even if we have none; you can also apply {{Copy to Wikimedia Commons}} . (often abbreviated OR, not to be confused with original research which generally doesn't apply to images)
  • Unencyclopedic - The file doesn't seem likely to be useful in this encyclopedia (or for any Wikimedia project). Images used on userpages should generally not be nominated on this basis alone unless the user is violating the Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not policy by using Wikipedia to host excessive amounts unencyclopedic material (most commonly private photos). (often abbreviated UE)
  • Low quality - The image is of an extremely low resolution, distorted, or has other physical image quality concerns. (often abbreviated LQ)
  • Copyright violation - The file might be used in violation of copyright. (often abbreviated CV)

These are not the only "valid" reasons to delete a file. Any properly explained reason can be used. The above list comprises the most common and uncontroversial ones.

Since abbreviated deletion reasons will not be familiar to most Wikipedians, especially newbies, please consider using full words. A few extra keystrokes now can save paragraphs of explanation to a panicked uploader wondering what's wrong with their image.

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.

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:

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.

Old discussions[edit]

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

For older nominations, see the archives.

File:Wkartv.png[edit]

File:Wkartv.png (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by 718 Bot (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log).

Old non-free logo, no discussion of the logo, in violation of WP:NFCC#3 and WP:NFCC#8. RJaguar3 | u | t 01:38, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

  • Keep/Move to Commons as public domain: Too simple for U.S. threshold of originality, so {{PD-textlogo}}; and even if the "P" were barely able to meet threshold of originality, it's been in use since 1971, almost certainly at least once without a copyright notice between 1971 and 1977, so {{PD-US-no notice}} surrounded by simple circle and text. (On a side note: The replacement File:WKAR 23-75.jpg would even be far enough under threshold of originality to be public domain also.) --Closeapple (talk) 04:14, 19 January 2014 (UTC)
  • This seems to be above the threshold of originality as the thing in the black circle seems to be more complex than the second logo in this PDF file. If the logo was in use before 1978, then it is almost certainly {{PD-US-no notice}}. --Stefan2 (talk) 18:38, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

File:Territorial control of the ISIS.svg[edit]

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the media below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the media's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the discussion was: Wrong forum. The file is on Commons, but a local image description page exists. If you are wanting the image deleted, please nominate it for deletion on Commons. If you are requesting deletion of the local image description page only, use {{db-nofile}} if possible; if that is not possible, list it at WP:MFD. AnomieBOT⚡ 20:17, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

UE: Original Research, Iraqi half is totally unsourced. Unencyclopedic content. Dare I say also WP:NOTNEWS, it'd be better to wait for reliable sources and base a map off that than to conjecture. Cheers, JCJ of Burwell (Talk) 19:28, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

Keep image/map Besides Iraq, which I am willing to remove from the map, all territory in Syria is based on Template:Syrian civil war detailed map, and certain sources. The media refers to most of the Al Anbar as part of the ISIL, so it is not original research. When the media refers to Fallujah, it gets constantly equalized with ISIL in Al Anbar province. Like I said, if consensus on this is to delete, I am willing to just crop the map to Syria, so it is [more] "accurate". —SPESH531Other 19:42, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

This file is a free image, yet is in a relatively uncompressed format, and has a higher quality (and higher resolution) version available on Commons at File:Christian Swartz.tiff. Also, despite being in a production format, this image does not include any production information, and can safely be deleted without losing any information.

Fails WP:NFCC#8: not critically discussed. We already have another image of him in the infobox. Stefan2 (talk) 18:57, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

  • If, by WP:NFCC#8: not critically discussed, do you mean that the content of the image is not used to illuminate an aspect of Hosea Williams work as an African-American civil rights activist? The most pertinent sentence, in the article, to this questioning, is "While organizing during the 1965 Selma Voting Rights Movement he also led the first attempt at a 1965 march from Selma to Montgomery, and was tear gassed and beaten severely. The Selma demonstrations and this "Bloody Sunday" attempt led to the other great legislative accomplishment of the movement, the Voting Rights Act of 1965." The image used not just of Hosea Williams. It is an identification aid used by Alabama law enforcement during the 1960s civil rights era to identify activists in the 1960s era civil rights era. The use of this image '...individuals involved...' combines an image of the subject of the biography and printed identification information that was used by the forces opposing the Selma to Montgomery marches. If this is not clearly shown in the the article, then it is the fault of my prose. The purpose of the image in this article is to show context to Williams' civil rights activism in a way that can not be shown by words and images alone, and in a way that is strengthened by a document from the time. I continue to work on improving and expanding the article - Neonorange (talk) 19:58, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
Considering the importance within the United States (and particularly within the southern United States) of the African American civil rights movement, there is a paucity of images; of leaders, individuals, and events. Wikipedia Commons has one image connected with Hosea Williams, a campaign button. Unreasonably restricting 'fair use' of images from this struggle hides a part of history. This is an era prior to digital cameras and selfies; but it was still an era of government surveillance and enemies lists. Restrictive views of 'fair use' in this case robs the history of the struggle to vote, hiding away the methods that were used to rob a people of the right to vote. This goes against WP:NPOV. - Neonorange (talk) 18:12, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

The uploader was blocked in 2007 for uploading dozens of spam images for a wrestler named Brimstone.[1] For whatever reason this image never got deleted with the others. The Brimstone (wrestler) article was recently deleted for its subject being non-notable and the use of sockpuppets by an editor who used wikipedia as a promotional tool. This is an orphaned image and clearly has no encyclopedic value. All files relating to Brimstone were deleted on commons for the same reason.LM2000 (talk) 03:01, 21 January 2014 (UTC)

We have no information about the copyright status of this image. I looks like some kind of official or promotional photo but, who knows.

    • One of the things said on your "logical rationale" is "9. Will not replace commercial use of image". How do you know that when you have no information about image's copyright holder? Wikipedia takes copyright seriously. Many websites don't. We don't just accept as "fair use" images we just found somewhere on the Internet. --damiens.rf 15:58, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

Image fails WP:NFCC#3a as there are already two other non-free images of the speaker. It vaguely fails WP:NFCC#5 as a screenshot of an online auction is not encyclopedic. Also the image is not from a WP:RS. And finally, the image fails WP:NFCC#8. The image does not have any contextual significance. FUR claims "Used for illustrative purposes – gives testimony to the second-hand value of this product as at end of December 2013" There is no discussion of what is in the image, and there are two sources that show the second-hand value of the product. This image should be deleted as it violates many points of WP:NFCC -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 21:06, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

Oppose delete: Although it fails the NFF criteria etc etc, a separate article for the soundtrack will be developed ASAP, that can allow the image to stay. Kailash29792 (talk) 16:00, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

I don't get it. Why do we need a non-free image of this actress now when we have free images of her on Commons? I don't see any superb rationale either to keep this particular image in both the articles for which rationale is given. Maybe the situation was different in 2009 when it was uploaded. But now we have to let it go. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 06:43, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
