Disputed reason
I believe the image is not replaceable and does not fail any WP policies for the following reasons: The usage of some usage of copyrighted materials without permission of the copyright holder can qualify as fair use in the United States per WP:Image_use_policy#Fair_use_images; Additionally, images are often an important illustrative aid to understanding encyclopedic nature per WP:Manual of Style/Images; It is said by the reason that the file "does not need to be seen by the reader to understand the article content about the police invesitgating Dileep" which cannot be a proper reason to delete this image because the file is primarily a core subject of the article ("sourced critical commentary" as the police investigations including the prosecutions arguments at present going on in the court and the subheading itself starts as "Arrest and bail refusal"). The prosecution also argued in the court that there are other evidences which cannot be revealed to the public. So in the better prospective of a readers point of view, I believe this file can play a bigger role in the contest of readers can easily comprehend with it.Wikieditorhja (talk) 09:49, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
- Although I contributed a lot for the purpose of maintaining the matter in a neutral way, I wish to say that I personally do not have any particular interest in this subject any more. Wikieditorhja (talk) 10:01, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
- Wikipedia's non-free content use policy is based upon the concept of "fair use", but as explained in WP:NFC#Background Wikipedia's policy is much more restrictive than fair use, so trying to argue WP:ITSFAIRUSE is not really a good way to justify the non-free use of a certain image; moreover, as I explained at User talk:Marchjuly#Image despute reason, trying to compare the way images in different articles are being used is also not a very good way to try and justify non-free use for the reasons given in WP:OTHERIMAGE. All of the image files being used in September 11 attacks are freely licensed or pubic domain images from Wikipedia Commons, and as such they are not subject to Wikipedia's non-free content use policy. The two non-free images in the Dileep (actor) article (this file and File:Kerala police forensic experts investigate the van which was allegedly used by culprits.jpg) may also be problematic per WP:BLPCRIME and WP:MUG in addtion to their problems with WP:NFCC#1 and WP:NFCC#8. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:05, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: Please also note my comment at User:Marchjuly talk page also, deleting those images based on 'policy applications' is pointless, in my opinion which ruins the article's enhancement. WP:NFC#Background does not apply in this case as well as other fair use dispute such as "sourced critical commentary" and other rationales has been already said in the very first comment by myself. I leave it to an admin to consider those facts, Thanks. Wikieditorhja (talk) 21:50, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
