Invalid fair use rationale, which states that "the image serves as the primary means of visual identification of the person", while all four articles contain other non-free / individual images that better identify the person.

The image also fails

WP:NFCC#8

with no contextual significance and its omission would not be detrimental to understanding. The rationale applies to all articles where the image appears. Similar files have recently been deleted, pls see for example:

The result of the discussion was: convert to {{PD-ineligible-USonly}}. It is evident that this signature is not copyrighted in the United States; it remains unclear if and how British law is applied in this case. Erring on the side of caution. ℯ xplicit 04:40, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Someone's signature, obviously copyrighted; dubious self-work claim FASTILY 07:26, 26 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Fastily: See c:Commons:When to use the PD-signature tag. Why do you believe this goes beyond the "typical signature"? The smilie? ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 23:00, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Alex Sharp is English; on that same page you linked: c:Commons:When to use the PD-signature tag#United Kingdom. Furthermore, the signature is claimed as own work by the uploader and "released" under a CC license. That is likely incorrect, hence this nomination. -FASTILY 23:19, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

But the signature was in an American Playbill, was it not? I'm less concerned about the incorrect license (if it would be superseded by pd-signature) and more interested in which jurisdictions apply czar 10:18, 13 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: It's not clear what that "curious incident playbill" is. Will ask Kindofleigh

@Jo-Jo Eumerus, since it doesn't look like we'll be hearing from the uploader, it looks like a reference to the Broadway play The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time (play), which starred Sharp. My question here, after reading the Commons section, is whether the British Common law jurisdiction applies for a Brit whose signature appears in an American publication. czar 05:59, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I suspect it's a matter of where it was published first. Being a Brit to my knowledge is not relevant to the copyright status of the signature. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 10:25, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fails Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria#8 (contextual significance)—the image has no textual justification. If it's necessary to understand a "demonic" costume, it can be described through reliable sources in the text such that the visualization would be unnecessary. Similarly, if the visualization was needed at all, we would first need the text to justify that the costume's design is integral to understanding the topic, such that its removal would be a "detriment" to the reader's understanding of the topic. czar 18:25, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Delete; seems like we don't have enough information to say that it is free Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 10:02, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Maps are copyrightable and since the uploader said they "used a map of India" it is reasonable to think that this is a repurposed copyrighted map. There is a reason we have free alternatives and without further information on where the actual map came from this needs to be deleted. Majora (talk) 21:34, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hey , I am the uploader, I just used a free map from www.d-maps.com where it is written free map, free blank map. Then it is obviously copyright free. I made the rest of the map, I just researched some info so no more copyright. King Prithviraj II (talk) 14:48, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@King Prithviraj II: Thank you for telling me where you got it from. Unfortunately there are still multiple problems with this. One, you did not comply with the reuse requirements on that site. It very clearly states on the terms and conditions of use page that the exact URL where the original map comes from must be mentioned. The whole reason we are here is that you failed to include where you got the map from. If you are going to use material from somewhere else you must comply with all restrictions else you are committing copyright infringement. Second, we have no idea if this map is free enough for our purposes. While it does say that you are free to use the map, even commercially, it does not say that you can modify the map. That is one of the requirements and without clarification on that point the map can't stay. Sorry. --Majora (talk) 05:50, 28 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
