Keep Grants of license to wikipedia are usually irrevocable, unless I am mistaken. -- Avi 20:24, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
Keep No reason offered within Commons deletion guidelines; no evidence that anon requesting deletion is the uploader. -- Infrogmation 14:33, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
Delete I was contacted by this IP for this deletion request and after discussing with him, I assume he is good faith. My main concern about this image is actually the lack of encyclopedic substance: this is just a personal artwork, the author has no kind of celebrity, so there is no real usability; de facto, it is not used anywhere according checkusage. That's why I vote delete. Bibi Saint-Pol (sprechen) 19:36, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
Delete This image isn't used anywhere because nobody wants to use it. It hasn't got any artistic qualities, it's just a personnal artwork. —the preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.169.46.59 (talk • contribs)
Comment The two IP's above, one resolves to a PA library and the other to a French ISP. Are we certain they are the same person? -- Avi 15:46, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Keep The license cannot be revoked and was granted a good while ago, so this is not just a matter of someone clarifying their intention. The image is a good usable illustration even if it is not being used now. A variety of types of illustration is a good thing in itself. The Commmons is supposed to be a huge free resource for all present and future Wiki projects and for other uses besides. --Simonxag 22:46, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Keep Exactly. Given the time elapsed since uploading, and the vague reasons for requesting deletion, I think the deletion should only be considered based on the merits of the image, itself. In this case, its lack of usage throughout wikipedia projects betrays is potential usefulness. It is an artistic representation of a non-obscure, mythological character. -Seidenstud 11:23, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
Comment I would like to connect with my account "kawax2" or "kawax59" but the passwords Wikipedia sent me are unreadable. I've got two computers so that's why I've got two IP.--Kawax59
Delete This is a personal interpretation of a mythological character by an artist whose fame does not seem enough to warrant an article in a WP. I wouldn't personally use it in an article unless it were the sole and only one representing the subject. This is not the case here: we have good quality representations of Melpomene, both ancient and modern. IMO this picture is out of Commons' scope. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 13:05, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Comment Even now, editors in different areas of the English Wikipedia have quite different views on the best sort of illustration. And why might a contributer decide to remove a work? Perhaps a works growing commercial value? --Simonxag 00:07, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- It could be relevant to remember what is the project scope: “Media files that are not useful for any Wikimedia project are beyond the scope of Wikimedia Commons.” So the actual question is not the possible commercial value of this work (this has nothing to do with Commons goals) but its utility in a Wikimedia project. Currently, this utility is null; and nobody here demonstrated how it could become usefull. We must conclude that this image is actually “beyond the scope of Wikimedia Commons”, and then is to be deleted. Bibi Saint-Pol (sprechen) 12:07, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Delete This painting is a personnal vision of the muse. She hasn't original appearence. She doesn't wear the cothurnus. She doesn't hold a knife and she doesn't wear a crown of cypress.Kawax59 17:51, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
DeleteSome informations about this image are missing. The description is not complete. Kawax59
Deleted. Although licenses cannot be revoked, this image is unusable, since it's a personal vision of a mythological figure by an unknown artist. Ecemaml talk to me/habla conmigo 22:58, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
