Non free team photo being used decoratively. Fails WP:NFCC#8 Whpq (talk) 03:15, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The file description page claims the file is to be used "for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of his/her biographical article". Not only is 2017 Congressional baseball shooting not a biographical article, but there is no reliably-sourced prose in the article about Mr. Hodgkinson that requires or benefits from using copyrighted material to understand. — fourthords | =Λ= | 15:20, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, as uploader. It's normal practice to illustrate biographies of significant public figures, as this perpetator of a high-profile shooting is. 2017 Congressional baseball shooting is (currently) his biographical article; he is likely to get a separate article in time.His appearance (e.g., his age, skin color) provides potentially significant context for the shooting.

Keep - This is a neutral image of the man, there is no chance of getting another free one now that he is dead, and per Sandstein. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 16:54, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Replace. I see this image is also available via AP, which has a strong commercial interest[1] UUI#7 applies, so replace it with a mugshot[2] - I'm never entirely sure whether there's a federal lack of copyright on mugshots, but a mugshot is going to have less commercial impact and enough relevant context to improve the claim of fair use. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 17:21, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is the outdated organizational logo. The current logo, which should be displayed in the article instead of this one, is shadowing this file on Commons (see commons:File:Action for Children logo.png), so the only action needed here is the deletion of this local file. – Philosopher ^{Let us reason together.} 17:37, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
