  • Keep - The image is supposed to be used to illustrate the historic moment it was taken in, not the image of Arroyo, the same way several of them are used in Michael Jordan's article. It should also be noted that the main use of the image is on the Puerto Rico National Team article not Carlos Arroyo's page. - 21:31, 22 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. In no way does this meet WP:NFCC #8 in any of the three articles it's in. howcheng {chat} 18:38, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Actually that's not correct, this image has gained some sort of 'legendary' status in Puerto Rico, the action in it has been mimicked in tv commercials, paintings and has been used in several articles in newspapers becoming one of the most widespread images in the island, as far as becoming to a certain extent a patriotic image. - 00:23, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • That's interesting. However, none of the articles actually say this. Here's what you need to do: create a section in the Carlos Arroyo article about what you just described (naturally citing reliable sources to prevent the appearance of original research). That's what will make the use of this image pass NFCC #8. Also, it should probably be limited to Arroyo's article then. howcheng {chat} 22:55, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note from Jimbo: Per BenB4, the user has a history of copyvios and therefore I see no reason at all to accept his claim to have created the images. That's enough right there, and there was really no reason to even have a discussion, these could have and probably should have been speedy deleted as soon as the guy was caught on the other copyvios.--Jimbo Wales 23:21, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • These images both appear to show children in sexually-suggestive nonnude poses. Uploader has a string of images deleted for copyvio according to his talk page history. He was asked back in February to present a model release but has so far not done so, even though he edited in April. The absence of a model release from a parent or guardian for such images of minors presents a very serious legal issue (see below.) BenB4 19:34, 22 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wikipedia image use policy does not require model releases (in fact, they are not mentioned in the policy), and they are not commonly in use; my check of a number of Wikipedia images of recognizable persons did not turn up any on the image description pages. --MCB 17:58, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
lets use this instead of what look to be children uploaded by a guy with a history of image copyvios
  • Keep. First of all, the images are valuable to the article as illustrations of the genre of photography that is the subject of the article; the article would be of much less value without an example. (Consider other articles on genres or movements in art.) Hence actual encyclopedic value as an exemplar of a type. Secondly, there is no Wikipedia policy requiring a model release for the subjects of images, and Wikipedia images do not customarily feature model released (feel free to cite examples or counter-examples). As the photo is not sexually explicit (or even of a sexual nature) the age of the subject is unlikely to present any special legal issues. As the photo has been released to the public domain by its maker, those who assert a legal issue should provide actual legal arguments rather than conclusions like "a very serious legal issue" or "too risky to use". --MCB 07:32, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Legal issue as follows: A 1994 decision by the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, U.S. v. Knox, ruled that language in the Protection of Children Against Sexual Exploitation Act of 1977 prohibiting the “lascivious exhibition of the genitals or pubic area” can include “non-nude depictions.” The court upheld the conviction of defendant Stephen Knox on the grounds that videotapes he had purchased showing children posing in leotards were marketed as being sexually exciting.[1] Since the uploader added one of the pictures to an article which wikilinks "sexually suggestive" to "erotic," it would not be hard to show that the intent was to show lascivious imagery. Felony charges have been filed in Arkansas, Missouri, and Colorado against operators of "child model" web sites, for example, "engaging children in sexually explicit conduct for use in visual or print medium," and "employing and enticing a minor to engage in sexually explicit conduct for the purpose of producing a visual depiction and for operating a preteen “model” Web site that transmitted the images across state and national borders." ←BenB4 21:27, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, photos have encyclopedic value, and there is no evidence these models are underage. —Angr 17:08, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment Other than the obvious fact that they look underage from their photos. Are you prepared for the media roasting us if (when) the real copyright holder and the subjects see the image on Wikipedia? The uploader has a history of misusing and mislabelling images. --John 17:22, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per BenB4 and per John. ElinorD (talk) 01:51, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I don't think these women look "obviously" underage in the least, they look like average college students to me. Apparently to some people, anyone under 25 looks like a "kid" to them. wikipediatrix 01:54, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • These pictures must be deleted at once, at least until some serious questions are answered. The subjects appear to be minors, there is no model release, they are sexualized or titillating, the models are identifiable (but not formally identified so we have no way of knowing that they are aware that the photographs have been made public), and the uploading editor is not currently available to answer questions. --Tony Sidaway 07:23, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    What makes them "appear to be minors" in your opinion? Seriously. I don't think you know what you're talking about. And since when do we need a "model release" for pics on Wikipedia? I can point you to thousands of pics on Wikipedia where we neither know nor care who they are or whether they signed a release. That these women are aiming their posteriors at the camera and showing less skin than anyone would see at the beach shouldn't make a difference. wikipediatrix 14:25, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    What makes them "appear to be minors"? In Florida law a minor is a person under the age of 18. I have a teenaged daughter, and I cannot tell whether any of the people depicted are over or under her age. That being the case, I think the law would expect us to prove that either the models were over 18 or their parents consented to their partially dressed images being published. --Tony Sidaway 18:37, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Well exactly. Nobody can tell because the uploader has not told us and is unavailable to tell us. Images like these are highly replacable and in the presence of doubt about what ages they are or whether they actually gave consent to their (identifiable) likenesses being used on Wikipedia, we delete. If we need images like this in the future we get them properly sourced and attributed.--John 18:49, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Why don't we get an example of nonnude photography where the subjects are clearly adults instead? ←BenB4 19:47, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment To be honest, my best guess is that one photo might depict a set of minors, and one definitely doesn't. In Example 1 those girls are very clearly over 18. Example 2 is less clear. That said, these photos are the definition of replacable, and there's reasonable suspicion on whether the uploader actually holds the copyright to them. It's probably better to just play it safe and find some nice young ladies who'd be happy to replace them. WilyD 16:13, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. For once, I completely agree with Tony Sidaway on this. I think we need to be very careful in cases like this. While I'm quite aware that Wikipedia is not censored, I think there are serious legal and ethical concerns here; we have no evidence that the girls depicted in the pictures are adults or that they have given permission for their images to be used. Any potential benefit to Wikipedia by keeping these pictures is, IMO, outweighed by the risk of publishing suggestive pictures of minors without their consent, a practice which is illegal in many countries and somewhat unethical. WaltonOne 17:31, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete These images have sat, improperly accounted for on several levels, in an article for months. This is completely unacceptable, and the time for an assumption of good faith is over. The uploader has been given ample time. Not only are there serious ethical issues when it comes to the dubious age of the models, but there is not a shred of evidence that they ever consented to these being released on the web.There is also a good chance they are copy vios. VanTucky (talk) 21:31, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for reasons eloquently expressed already, SqueakBox 21:57, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete they sure look underage. In the UK, just making a (sexually provocative) picture *look* like it is of children under 16 is an offence. Why take the risk when there are so many better alternatives? MurunB 22:51, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete keeping them is an unnecessary risk. —Anas talk? 23:03, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. When in doubt, throw it out. Why bother to risk a copyvio (or even an offence) when the images can stay deleted? Sr13 06:42, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
