Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think the current image policy is a compromise between those who believe enwp should have no non-free images, which would be a very simple policy, either the image is free or it's not, no need for WP:FFD, just delete, and those who believe that any image can be used as long as an even remotely plausible fair use rationale can be provided. What we have is a wikilawyer's delight. (no sorry, that picture Gary Coleman as a kid is unacceptable because he still looks like a kid so it's replaceable. Oh what's that, you are Gary Coleman and you took the picture yesterday? Just who was holding the camera?") _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
