File:Cacodemon (Doom).png (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Dfdooger (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

This file states that it is to be used as the primary means of identifying the subject at the beginning of the corresponding article. This is not the case. The article currently has another file as its primary identifying image, and though that image is not as dramatic as this one, it is in the public domain (which this one is not). I think this means we can't retain this one on Wikipedia. If I am wrong, someone please correct me. A loose necktie (talk) 01:43, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

File:Joe Santagato.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Hillelfrei (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

Insufficient evidence of permission. The provided permission is a screenshot. The provide screenshot makes no mention of a license. Furthermore, Joe Santagato is the subject of the video which does not necessarily mean he is the copyright holder. This really needs to be done via WP:OTRS.

  • Delete I do not doubt that Mr. Santago agreed to let someone use a photo of him for his Wikipedia article, but I HIGHLY doubt he is the author of that image. The uploader needs to find out WHO TOOK the picture, and then have THAT person (NOT Mr. Santago) send a permission statement into the OTRS system (as mentioned above). THAT person has to be willing to let anyone at all reuse the image for any purpose, including possible commercial reuse without compensation. Often they just won't do that. But hey! Maybe they will! Worth a try! A loose necktie (talk) 17:05, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

File:User-Candlewicke DYK 2008 Meteor Awards, Mick Pyro, Some Surprise, The Cake Sale (album), The Cake Sale, Brian Crosby, Mulkerrin Brothers.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by CLWE (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

I am nominating this *one* partiular image because it is currently orphaned and I can not see any encyclopedic use for it. I am bring it here because the uploader is absense since March 2017 and I can not ask him/her. There are currently over 100 simmilar type of images by this uploader ([1] and while have I obviously have not looked at all of them, those that I have looked at are orphaned as well. I am looking for some concensus to delete the similar images for deletion, but do not want to spend the time Prod-ing them if there is some valid reason for their existance. Perhaps someone with Main Page experince can way in. Jordan 1972 (talk) 22:05, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete If it is not in use there is no reason to keep it. So I think it is safe to delete all unused screenshots unless you find a good reason to keep it. For example I would keep a screenshot if it shows the exact time that the counter on the front page shows "6,000,000 articles in English". Thank you Jordan 1972 for cleaning up! --MGA73 (talk) 08:13, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
