Forum:SH Archive/Unused images deletion

Wookieepedia &gt; Senate Hall &gt; 

As was decided last Mofference, a WookieeProject was established (or hijacked) to handle the unused images. So we have, and we will be deleting a large number of unused images every week. The first batch consists of the first 150 images on the list. They will be deleted Friday the 24th of November. If you disagree with deleting any of the images in the gallery, please state so in this thread. The gallery can be found here. --Imp 16:10, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I've replaced the "part 1" page for ease of use. Please put subsequent rounds at the top of the list. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 22:21, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

If an image is linked in a nonstandard way or has some other reason to continue existing, put it on this page.

This project now includes images used only in galleries.

Gallery-only images
SOURCE IMAGES BEFORE PUTTING THEM IN AN ARTICLE --Imp 09:26, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

OK, guys. Use em or lose em. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 16:58, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I just want to confirm, if an image can be put in an article using a text link, rather than a thumbnail, it is still good and consided "in use" under fair use, and just needs to be put in the gallery linked to above. Is that correct? - JMAS 17:26, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm not 100% sure about that. I think so, just be sure to put on it and append it to the not-unused gallery. --  Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 18:08, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
 * And source it. As specifically as possible. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 20:38, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Got it, and will do, re the sourcing and licensing info, etc. Thanks. - JMAS 21:33, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, adding them in that way most often does not constitute fair use. It works for things like the Andrasta, where we link to an image to help illustrate something, but not in the way that you seem to be doing it JMAS (ie. linking to them for the sake of linking to them, especially when we have valid images that would otherwise illustrate them). &mdash;Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 01:30, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Exactly; just slapping them into an article doesn't make them Fair Use. They should be illustrating the topic in question in a manner that no other image we provide is sufficient.  For a nice quick rundown, read Wikipedia's version of the fairuse template. jSarek 04:12, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Barabel.JPG used here. jSarek 04:12, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:SaeseeTiinConceptArt.jpg has a home on Saesee Tiin's page; still needs sourcing, though. jSarek 04:40, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Kisquar.jpg has an article for it here. jSarek 04:45, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Herglic gambler HR.jpg has a home in the gambling article. jSarek 04:48, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Rodian female GG10.jpg has a home at Saras Krenin. jSarek 05:06, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Tarquin Zian.jpg has a home at the eponymous article. jSarek 05:11, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:MundiConceptArt.jpg is on Ki-Adi-Mundi, Image:GunrayConceptArt.jpg is on Neimoidian, and Image:Slyther.gif is on Slyther Bushforb. - Lord Hydronium 05:40, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Note that both concept art images still need sourcing. jSarek 09:38, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, sorry about that. I've posted a message on Cato Neimoidia's talk page, so hopefully there'll be a source soon (maybe sooner if anyone has and could check The Art of TPM).  If you want to remove them until then, I can add them back once they're sourced. - Lord Hydronium 09:41, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I was mostly just bringing it to people's attention at this point. I'm sure we'll be purging sourceless images soon enough. jSarek 09:52, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * If nobody finds it elsewhere, there's a differently cropped version of the Gunray concept in the Episode I Insider's Guide. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 12:17, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Duros on Starforge.JPG now at Chidee Na Maak. jSarek 10:28, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * So if it has a source and copyright thingy its not gonna be deleted?Gyasz Kudeb 15:40, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * If it has a source and a copyright thingy and it's used to illustrate an article and not just a gallery then it won't be deleted. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 15:49, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Byblos Starport Tower 214 interior.jpg and Image:Byblos_Starport_Tower_214_Docking.jpg have a home in Byblos_Starport_Tower_214. Gonk 18:50, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Twi'lek lovers.jpg has a home in Heat storm, and no, it is not as erotic as you think it is. Gonk 19:09, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Arc170 pair.jpg has a home here - JMAS 19:17, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Mon Cal spacer.jpg has a home in Mon Calamari. Gonk 19:18, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Y wing.jpg marked as mirrored duplicate of Image:Ywing.jpg and IFD as such. - JMAS 19:22, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Items to be deleted March 2, 2007 (aka Round 15)
This is now a weekly maintenance task. Numbering the rounds will cease next round. As usual, discuss this set of images here. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 00:14, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Battleofmustafar.jpg now has a home here. Wildyoda 00:25, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:T-47_Airspeeder.jpg has a home here. - JMAS 00:26, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * It was removed by Nebulax, and I can't say I blame his reasoning. We should probably let that image die, especially since it's without copyright info. jSarek 03:02, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * It has to come from somewhere. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 03:57, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, but does adding yet another image to an already overcrowded article warrant trying to find it? jSarek 05:00, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Screenshot8.jpg has a home here. - JMAS 00:40, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Wattoclose.jpg now at the bottom of Watto. I still think it'd be a better infobox image than any of those silly hat pics. jSarek 02:42, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Demolisherrear.jpg now on Demolisher. jSarek 02:48, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Keluda_and_speeder.jpg should probably be deleted; there's a better picture. My bad. Logisland 07:32, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Podisciple.jpg now on Mical. Gonk 18:55, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:GoodIcon.png added to WP:GA and removed Mofference transcripts that were tagged with notorphan. Not sure if Image:NPOV.png should be removed. We still use a smaller version of it on the old main page design. 04:21, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Sry about removing them Culator. I didn't know you were keeping them there on purpose. 04:22, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Round 14
Round 14 is up. You'll notice that there are fewer files than previous rounds. We're all caught up. This is no longer a cleanup effort, it's a maintenance task. Uploaded files will be allowed to sit around unused for no longer than two weeks from now on. People who use Wookieepedia as a free image host will be unpleasantly surprised. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 21:57, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
 * We did it, Culator! Nice job! --Imp 21:58, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Next project? Sourcing? Eliminating gallery-only images? Taking a vacation? -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 23:11, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Sourcing is really needed. If an image isn't properly cited, we shouldn't have it. jSarek 01:25, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Sunridersdestiny.jpg is a duplicate of Image:Sunrider's Destiny.jpg. - Lord Hydronium 01:19, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:FelinROTJ.jpg has a home in Soontir Fel. jSarek 01:25, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:MC30.jpg has a home at the previously imageless (?!) article frigate. jSarek 01:31, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Wattoclose.jpg is at Watto. jSarek 01:36, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:SulonStarDocked.jpg was something I uploaded for Sulon Star before I found a better image (and there's no room for another). As far as I'm concerned, you can delete it. - Lord Hydronium 10:47, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Tagge_blind.jpg is in Orman Tagge. - Lord Hydronium 10:47, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Round 13
Final round. All the unused images on Wookieepedia are in the gallery. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 01:40, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Fighter tanks.JPG is now used. 01:53, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Chellemi Chuovvick.jpg is on Emma Howard, formerly believed to be the one who played Chellemi Chuovvick (a misconception from www.xanga.com/starwars_101, apparently). I don't have evidence that that pic is of Emma Howard, though &hellip; &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 01:58, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Don't delete Image:Mystery Jedi.JPG. I'm still waiting for someone with the knowledge to check their character sheets and confirm if they have names or not. Havac 03:13, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Executor-CHRON.jpg has a home here. - JMAS 15:35, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:DS2 attack run.jpg has a home here. - JMAS 15:48, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Kamino.jpg has a home here. - JMAS 15:59, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Kejimoutpost.jpg has a home here and here. - JMAS 16:12, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Tie fighters.jpg has a home here. - JMAS 16:36, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Saadoonkauldikadrira b.jpg has had info added and been placed in article Saadoon-Kauldi. jSarek 17:38, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Crimsol Vaighn.jpg is now used in Crimsol Vaighn. --Craven 20:27, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Jaina 18.jpg has now a home here. Logisland 22:12, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * The page says, at the top, in bold with an underline, " Putting them in a gallery does not count as fair use. " I believe that if anything is going to piss off LFL it's the galleries (not the templates or the chrome, the stupid galleries). Particularly galleries like this and this but also including the character galleries. Our articles are saying "hey, buy the books we list as sources" but the galleries are saying "don't bother buying the books, we have all the images collected for your convenience!" -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 22:40, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Droid_sniper_targeting.JPG has now a home here. Logisland 22:26, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:LegoDuel.JPG has now a home here. Logisland 22:37, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Round 12
We're now in our twelfth round of this project, and we're finally up to December 2006. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 00:24, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Gastrulan image (Image:Gastrulans.JPG) has been replaced with a cropped one Image:Gastrulan.JPG Enochf 00:29, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Dorme.jpg used on Dormé. Havac 00:49, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Eclipsepro.jpg used on Eclipse-class Star Dreadnought. Havac 01:02, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Revan screen.jpg and Image:Guineo (BH).jpg are obsoleted by Image:Revanludotomb.jpg and Image:Guineo.jpg. Image:Annihilated annihilator.jpg might as well be deleted because the colours are wrong due to a glitch in the game. Also, should Image:Naga Sadow Headshot.JPG and Image:Nagasadowperson.jpg be swapped? --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) 01:25, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Images Image:Honor_blade.jpg, Image:Map_of_Lorsanan_sondora.jpg, Image:Shapeshifter_natural.jpg, and Image:The_Lorsanan_Shannet.jpg have my permission to be deleted. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  12:39, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Done. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 17:04, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:EndorNEGAS.jpg now has a home here. That was just too pretty not to use. Wildyoda 19:53, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Reb cmdre.jpg and Image:Reb radm.jpg could be kept if we mean to add the Star Wars Technical Commentaries rank list conjecture to the BTS section of Rank insignia of the Rebel Alliance (which currently has original conjecture in it, I think.) &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 22:09, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I put Image:YsanneIsard.jpg on Ysanne Isard's article which had been needing another pic anyway. -- Ozzel 22:11, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:DarkApprentice HarperCollins.jpg added to Dark Apprentice page. 22:29, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:13ee 1 b.JPG added to Risk: Star Wars Original Trilogy Edition 22:31, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:ISD_arrow.jpg has a home. - JMAS 16:29, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Round 11

 * Delete Image:SionMeditation.jpg. It's unusably blurry. Havac 00:42, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Yuck. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 00:47, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Jaina\'s_light.JPG is a dupe of Image:'s_light.JPG . Havac 00:47, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Bollux.JPG used to replace uncolored version on his article. Havac 00:51, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Winterleia.jpg also unhealthily blurry. Havac 00:54, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Grievous13.JPG is neat but needs sourcing. Havac 00:56, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Kill the corpse. We can't use sideways photos and his article doesn't need another. Havac 00:57, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Krayt destroyer.jpg dupe of Image:Aggressor destroyer.jpg. Havac 00:59, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:32037.jpg used on Eclipse (ship). Havac 01:02, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:TatooineMap.jpg used on Tatooine. Havac 01:10, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:MosEisleyMap.jpg used on Mos Eisley. Havac 01:14, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:LuckyDespotMap.jpg also in use on Lucky Despot. Why do people upload perfectly good pics and just leave them sit? Havac 01:23, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Battle of New Plympto.JPG used to replace uncropped and ugly Image:BattleHalfAxePass.jpg. Havac 01:32, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:DepaEp.1.jpg used on Depa Billaba. Havac 01:40, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:JabbaMasher.jpg marked IFD as a duplicate of Image:JabbaPromo.jpg. - JMAS 06:12, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Jedi under siege (2).jpg and Image:Jedi last stand.gif are duplicates of Image:JainaVsZekk.jpg and Image:Jedigeonosis.jpg. --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) 18:09, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Round 10
Round 10 is up, now that Wikia has worked out its server and cache issues. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 17:01, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Down to 129 after a quick round of image placement and dupe-checking. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 18:16, 21 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Image:Saesee_and_Clones_Attack.JPG has a home here. Wildyoda 18:24, 21 January 2007 (UTC)


 * A few more dupes marked. Also, Image:Jaina-reunion.jpg is a near-dupe of Image:JainaDW.png, but shows more waist-down. YMMV which is hotter. I mean, better. Enochf 18:34, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Put Image:Adventures 7n.jpg on its page. It was never added due to a mistake. 18:55, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Deleted Image:384331B lg.jpg - duplicate, orphan, and bad quality 19:01, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * The gorgeous Image:Roan Fell Imp Knights.JPG used at Bastion and deserves use elsewhere (main pic at Imperial Knight?) but any other potential sites seem too cluttered currently. Havac 04:53, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Male-Dee.jpg has a home here. - JMAS 00:35, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:AT-RT Driver multiple views.jpg has a home here. - JMAS 00:44, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Blackholetrooper.jpg given home here. - JMAS 00:44, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Citadel of B\'omarr.JPG is a lower-quality duplicate of Image:Citadel of B'omarr.JPG.  - breathesgelatin Talk 08:09, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Bossk UA.jpg now has a home on Bossk.  - breathesgelatin Talk 08:36, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Due to an annoying series of events/boo-boos by me, the former Image:Githany, Post-Thought Bomb.JPG was deleted but the image itself is now at Image:Githany Thought Bomb.JPG and in use on Githany.  - breathesgelatin Talk 08:29, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:MosepBinneed.jpg is unsourced, but I think it is a better depiction of Mosep Binneed than that currently on his page.  - breathesgelatin Talk 08:36, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Hmm, behind schedule for Round 11, I think. I spent last night marking a bunch of duplicates, including Image:'s Anvil.jpg, so there's a backlog at Category:Duplicate images. Enochf 03:12, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Round 9
Round 9 got a late start but is now down to 124 from the initial 150. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 22:21, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Leia-Luke.PNG isn't exactly a dupe of Image:Leia luke kiss.jpg, but it's certainly redundant. Best to pick one and ditch the other. And ew. Enochf 23:51, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I say we ditch the JPG, it seems pixelly to me. --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) 23:56, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Similar thing with Image:Cvrsq (2).jpg. We've already got Image:Survivorsquest.jpg, which is a close-up of the same pic. Enochf 23:54, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Created the blurrg trooper page for Image:BlurrgTroopers.jpg Enochf 00:14, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Wookiee warriors.jpg marked as IFD. It's a duplicate of Image:Wookies.jpg - JMAS 17:58, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:T-47 Airspeeder.jpg has a home here. - JMAS 18:09, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Republic Speeder Bike.JMP.jpg has a home here. - JMAS 20:20, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:SWG•JK - Yun.png is a duplicate of Image:YunConcept.jpg, already in use on the appropriate page.  - breathesgelatin Talk 20:04, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:Image-RebelSpecForce.JPG has a home here. - JMAS 21:24, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually, it's a duplicate of an image already on the page. jSarek 00:02, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I completely missed that. Thanks for the catch. - JMAS 22:45, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Image:ImperialPummel.jpg, Image:RebelPummel.jpg, andImage:WookieePummel.jpg now have entries, albeit very repetitive ones Enochf 22:37, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
