Category:Wikipedia image placeholders

{{editprotected}}

Since this is an image placeholder, please place [[Category:Wikipedia image placeholders]] on the bottom of the image page. Thanks. GregManninLB (talk) 14:23, 11 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

"Do you own one?" isn't appropriate

edit

This should be changed to 'Can you provide one?' or something like that on this image and all its other forms. Often images can be uploaded by people without they themselves being the owner - public domain drawings from expired copyright, suitably licensed photos on Flickr etc are often suitable.

Effectively disable

{{Editprotected}} I keep encountering this thing in articles; not all editors are aware of the Centralized Discussion that nixed, by WP community-wide consensus, the use of this and similar images on article pages, and some are thus still deploying it. The status of this image as deprecated is very clear and needs to be made clearer (but it should not be deleted; the centralized and pre-centralized debates about it are of great precedential value, but would be rendered rather inexplicable if the image disappeared, as it is used numerous times in the course of the debate).

  1. Please place the following at the top of the image page: {{Warning|1=Do not add this image to article pages. The proposal to add such images to articles [[Wikipedia:Centralized discussion/Image placeholders|has been rejected]]. The image is preserved for historical reasons, as it is frequently cited in the proposal debates.}}
  2. Please also remove the tricky redirect, or at least comment it out; it still strongly suggests that these placeholder images are accepted and directly encourages their use.

These changes should be applied to any and all images in this series. I have so far tagged four of them for this editprotected cleanup.

What the heck is this image doing here? We should remove it immediately, it does not have any justifications. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.212.21.109 (talk) 21:21, 12 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
