If this template was added because you clicked "Mark for deletion" in the left menu (right when using Vector 2022 skin), please make sure that all necessary pages have been created. If they haven't been created after a few minutes, or if you added this template manually, you should complete these steps:

1 Visit the deletion requests subpage and place the following code:

{{subst:delete2|image=Nine more images of the 1997 Jarrell tornado by Scott Beckwith|reason=* File:1997 Jarrell tornado initial shape1.jpg

• File:1997 Jarrell tornado initial shape2.jpg
• File:1997 Jarrell tornado initial shape3.jpg
• File:Jarrell 1997 dead man sequence image1.jpg
• File:Jarrell 1997 dead man sequence image2.jpg
• File:Jarrell 1997 dead man sequence image3.jpg
• File:Dead Man Walking Jarrell 1997 upscaled.png
• File:Jarrell F5 tornado rapid strengthening 01.jpg
• File:Jarrell F5 tornado rapid strengthening2.jpg

These nine images were all taken by Scott Beckwith, of Jarrell Farm Supply. The uploader sourced them from an ArcGIS "Storymap" published by the National Weather Service, on the basis that they were in the Public Domain because they had been created by an employee of the US Federal Government in the performance of their duties.

However:

• Scott Beckwith was not a federal employee performing his duties
• there is no claim at the source that these images are in the public domain or licensed under a free license

As photos taken in the United States after 1989, they are therefore protected by copyright and we cannot host them here.

Closing admins should familiarise themselves with the evidence and discussions at this RfC when closing this request.
