  •  Keep It's historically in use on w:Marcus Shirock. I'm a touch confused why Shirock would want it deleted; it's an excellent picture, and he's an actor, not a field where you hide your face. The only thing that altering my opinion at all is the fact that User:Toglenn is one of more productive users and this is a one off request.--Prosfilaes (talk) 01:55, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep per Prosfilaes.   — Jeff G. ツ 15:23, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • DELETE This is a direct request by Shirock. For whatever reason, he wants it removed. His "reason" is irrelevant. Actors/Actress are VERY picky about pictures of themslves. No good can come from keeping this photo up. Refusing to delete an unwanted photo only creates resentment and BAD-Will (NOT Good-Will) between: (1) Wikipedia and the person who which the photo is of, (2) between Wikipedia and the uploader, and (3) between the person who the photo is of and the Uploader. Thats Three more good reasons to delete.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Toglenn (talk • contribs) 20:12, October 25, 2010 (UTC) (note that User:Toglenn is the uploader, speaking of himself in the third person in this unsigned comment.)
  • Wikipedia strives to be a reliable and useful source of information. No reliable and useful source of information can censor true and useful information at the request of the subjects of the articles. Images are not the biggest issue, but deleting an image from an article hurts the article, and deleting a good image at the request of the pictured hurts our street cred.--Prosfilaes (talk) 01:09, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep Although for the reasons Prosfilaes cites, we do not usually take down images at the subject's request, User:Toglenn has uploaded around 400 images, so I would bend a little and take this down if either Toglenn or Shirock provides a properly licensed replacement of similar quality.     Jim . . . .

It's also an opened door so that all the personalities ask for the deletion of their photos. Okki (talk) 02:45, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep I sent an email to Marcus Shirock's website asking for a new photograph, which would help clear the way for deletion per Jameslwoodward's suggestion. The reply I got back in full:
Hi I just read the article below. I never wanted this photo deleted. I do not know why there is motion to delete this picture? I like it and want it up. please respond

Seems straight-forward to me... Tabercil (talk) 23:00, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Update: I just traded emails with Toglenn about what I got from Marcus requesting the photo remain and he says he's withdrawing the DR. So I'm going to close it out. Tabercil (talk) 23:38, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawn by nominator as original reason for deletion no longer exists. Tabercil (talk) 23:39, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
