It seems the uploader wants to replace this image by File:Tsitsernakaberd24.04.2009.JPG, which is nearly a duplicate. Didym (talk) 16:53, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

- in use is no reason to keep duplicates, the file can be replaced. --Didym (talk) 16:56, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
- One thing is a {{Duplicate}}, another is «nearly a duplicate». Most of the times I’m all for collapsing such “semantic duplicates”, but, as also with actual duplicates, the use of the file in other projects needs to be changed first, only then deleted. Or else the image will redlink (as delinker bot fixes fast most of the times, but still), and that’s a disruption of sister-projects that should be done only for urgent cases, such as copyvios or worse. Also, having uninvolved editors going around in dozens of different language wikipedias changing images without a clear quality improvement might cause unnecessary attrition. -- Tuválkin ✉ 19:44, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Comment: Having two (or more) nearly identical photos such as this, taken few seconds apart with slight framing/location differences, is not always a bad idea. A reuser could want use both — to create a “shaking” animation effect, or a “spot the differences” puzzle. -- Tuválkin ✉ 19:44, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
