The result of the discussion was: keep. At the end of the day, NFCC #8 is a highly subjective criterion. Theoretically, Wikipedia could do without non-free images entirely and rely solely on text, so no non-free image is essential to the point that Wikipedia could not function. However, the English Wikipedia has chosen to allow non-free images, and since quantifying things like "significantly" and "detrimental" are impossible, I will defer to the opinion of the overwhelming majority of participants here since I find neither side to be stronger or more policy-based on a per-!vote level.

I will note that there is relatively little discussion on NFCC #2. Therefore, there will be no prejudice against further discussion of which specific image to use, or renomination solely on those grounds if no suitable version can be agreed on. However, the question of NFCC #1 and #8 are considered settled per this discussion. King of ♥ 06:10, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

9/11 has the image of the twin towers burning to show the viewer what happened during the event. Your statement is completely false and the altercation article needs the image. TheSecondComing10 (talk) 15:44, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. As someone who didn't watch the ceremony and skips the tabloids (I had heard the news but not seen any images), I found it helpful. Did he knock his teeth out? No, doesn't look like it. Did his hand merely huggle his face? No, a bit more than that. They are both wearing a suit, which tells me something about the setting. Their stances give me an idea of who's engaging/anticipating: Chris doesn't appear to have seen it coming: he didn't raise his arms or try to block. This can not be conveyed effectively using just text, and even if you could (and no, my description doesn't convey it effectively), you still couldn't because it would be original research. Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 18:59, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    What you're basing your argument on here is entirely trivial. The focus of the article isn't about what clothes they were wearing or how good Smith is at throwing a punch, it's just meant to tell you that this incident occurred and give context surrounding it. The level of detail you're including is beyond the scope of this website. And just because you don't watch the Oscars broadcast doesn't mean it is unreasonable to find the footage elsewhere. The justification regarding use of copyrighted material is this strict for a reason, and half-baked justifications like this just make it more clear to me why deleting is the right move. QuietHere (talk) 20:09, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    QuietHere, your arguments are half-baked. Settings and details matter. Wikipedia intents to inform and educate. If you want headlines, go to Twitter. If they had been in a more secluded space in casual gear, it would change the perspective. If Rock had been in a defensive stance, it would change the perspective. An image explains the situation better than a thousand words. Your argument that it "doesn't mean it is unreasonable to find the footage elsewhere" is as flawed as it gets: this applies to essentially every single non-free file we have here. Are you planning on nominating all 161,543 of them using this rationale? If you disagree with the existence of the Exemption Doctrine Policy as a whole, voting down individual files is not the answer. Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 01:58, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Fails NFCC#1 (no free equivalent), as describing the event using words is a reasonable substitute for the non-free image. Everybody knows what a slap looks like. — Diannaa (talk) 20:21, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Everybody knows what a slap looks like Images can become symbols in their own right. As just one example, a Dominican artist has already created a mural on a section of the Berlin Wall that utilizes this Smith-Rock image as an element in a larger piece. This isn't a new phenomenon -- Comprehension of DuChamp's L.H.O.O.Q. is predicated upon visual familiarity with Da Vinci's Mona Lisa, even though "Everybody knows what a lady looks likes". Feoffer (talk) 22:19, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
A gentle slap is very different from a forceful slap. The picture gives a good depiction of the implied force of the slap, and thus avoids endless edit warring about how the describe the force of the slap. We have WP:NFCCP#8 for a good reason. Let's not shoot ourselves in the foot here. 78.19.232.48 (talk) 10:37, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Why couldn't we describe absolutely any subject with words? Everybody knows what a human looks like, and we can get much more detailed than that with words. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 17:07, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm more neutral on this one, weak delete I suppose. Due to the low resolution and high compression you can't even see their faces. And all the details that are relevant to the story can probably be described with text or freely licensed pictures. Side note: an audio file of the actual interruption would IMHO be more informative.

Keep. For the expression on their faces alone this file should be kept. That's difficult to capture in words, and even more difficult to capture in sourced words. If either of them was, for example, grinning, it would put the entire event in another light. Also to show how much of a wardrobe malfunction. While that part can technically be described with text, it isn't an easy thing to visualize based on a text description. Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 21:03, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep As above: Nice to see one deletion discussion resulting in the nomination to delete more images mostly along the line of
    WP:POINT. This is well within fair-use laws, and as far as enwiki image use policy goes, clearly it does significantly increase readers' understanding of the incident. This kind of interpretation of copyright policy, on the other hand, leads to very poor results for readers' understanding. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 19:56, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply

Delete per nomination, and admittedly in part because of the absurdity of the above "facial expressions" argument. This isn't an art piece, we don't need to capture anyone's emotional state. If we wanted to know how any involved party felt about the incident, we'd look for an interview with them where they talk about it and pull quotes from there.
