a mirror image picture does not accuratly display the person involved Jan Arkesteijn (talk) 11:20, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
- Without going into the utter absurdity of such nitpicking, I will point out that the image is public domain. I would really like to see the policy which prohibits uploading slightly modified free images. --DIREKTOR (TALK) 13:29, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
Comment: I think it generally makes sense not to laterally invert portraits of people. Human beings are not symmetrical, so a laterally inverted image may not show the person as he or she actually appears. But where is the evidence that this image has been laterally inverted from an original? — Cheers, JackLee –talk– 17:57, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
- Either this one or the source is mirror imaged, but looking at the response of uploader, we can safely conclude that it is this one.Jan Arkesteijn (talk) 18:12, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
- Comment - in use, but en:WP:MOS#Images says: "Images should not be reversed simply to resolve a conflict between these guidelines; doing so misinforms the reader for the sake of our layout preferences." Upload correctly oriented version. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 10:16, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
- I would really like to see which policy proscribes deletion of the image based on the direction in which it is (currently) flipped. Isn't this an issue for the image talkpage, or even the article talkpage of a particular project, not a commons deletion request? --DIREKTOR (TALK) 11:38, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
Kept, file is in use and thus within project scope. Kameraad Pjotr 19:22, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
