A self-made image was uploaded on top of a US Government image, without replacing the license tag. Therefore, it's unclear what license the author intended. I suggest reverting to the US Government image. Wikiacc (¶) 18:07, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was: delete. It wasn't the nominator's original request, but the consensus of the discussion is that none of the current uses meet WP:NFCC, and therefore the image should be deleted, not just removed from one article. RL0919 (talk) 07:24, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

No legitimate use for the page Time Person of the Year, where the image is continuously re-added. Free images of Thunberg exist and replace the purpose of this image, as many of the images already present exemplify. © Tbhotch™ (en-3). 18:22, 14 December 2019 (UTC)
- Keep the Time Person of the Year image: it is the only image used under the awards and honors of Thunberg's bio. Since the award is so obscure and unknown (sarcasm intended), including the image of the Zeit Person of the Year 2019 magazine cover helps the reader of Thunberg's bio relate to such an insignificant award (again with the sarcasm ... I desperately need help). I have no Equus ferus oder Canis in this dog and pony show on whether or not the high honor and distinction of being named Time's Person of the Year is justification for inclusion of the media franchise's flagship magazine cover reflecting the honor and award. Therefore, I shall not henceforth weigh in on the matter one way or the other. Johnrichardhall (talk) 20:32, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

- Yes, per everything JJMC89 said below (also per WP:NFCC#3a). I have no opinion about deleting altogether as long as "TIME Person of the Year 2019 - Greta Thunberg" is replaced with something more relevant that requires such a non-free image in the first place. © Tbhotch™ (en-3). 20:50, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

- It would be relevant like File:People Magazine cover.png as the infobox image if it wasn't for File:Charles Lindbergh Time cover 1928.jpg, which is free and replaces the same purpose of explaining what is a Time Person of the Year (i.e. WP:NFCC#1). The only non-free covers in Time Person of the Year are (or were, as they have been removed) File:Time youcover01.jpg (originally uploaded for the article You (Time Person of the Year)), File:Silence Breakers.jpg (picture of 5 different women that may not be replaced by free images), and File:Time Magazine Cover Images Person of the Year 2018.png (4 different covers). Nevertheless, other years uses these physicians that not necessarily are related to the 2014 cover, these students that are not necessarily related to the 2013 cover or this whistle that is not related in any way to the 2002 cover. Non-free images are not used for decorative purposes. © Tbhotch™ (en-3). 20:50, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

- Delete There is no sourced critical commentary about the cover itself in Greta Thunberg (WP:NFCC#8). There is no non-free use rationale for Time Person of the Year (WP:NFCC#10c). Even if that were remedied, there is no sourced critical commentary about the cover itself, and there are free covers that can be used for identification (WP:NFCC#1). — JJMC89 (T·C) 23:02, 15 December 2019 (UTC)
- Remove from Time Person of the Year since, as pointed out above, there are free images of Thunberg which can be used in the table in the body of the article and because there are free images of older article covers which can be used for primary identification purposes at the top of the article. It's not really necessary to use the most recent cover image for primary identification purposes at the top of the article since the article is not specifically about the most recent issue, but rather about the entire history of the person-of-the year issue. Trying to justify this file's use in the article solely because it's the most recent one is not really something is going to make any sense at all next year when a new cover is released. Possible keep in the BLP about Thunberg, but only if critical commentary about the cover itself can be provided per WP:NFC#CS, WP:NFC#cite_note-3 and item 9 of WP:NFC#UUI. This might actually be a real possibility given the fact that the cover was actually recreated/photoshopped as discussed here which is something that did receive quite a bit of coverage; it might even be possible to upload the photoshopped version as well for a side-by-side comparison. The current article content about the Thunberg winning the award is not really something which requires that the reader see the actual cover image; content about the controversy created by the photoshopping is something, however, which could be better understood by seeing a comparison of both covers. It may even be possible for a stand-alone article to be created about the controversy itself if there's enough significant coverage though in that case item 6 of WP:NFC#UUI would probably mean the file would no longer be OK to use in Thunberg's BLP. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:31, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
In response to "Trying to justify this file's use in the article solely because it's the most recent one is not really something is going to make any sense at all next year when a new cover is released." Well then, simply update Time's Person of the Year's Wikipage next year with next year's Time's Person of the Year 2020. I'd think that having the most recent cover suggests that Wikipedia keeps current by updating Time's Person of the Year's Wikipage. Johnrichardhall (talk) 18:23, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
- As a reflection of Wikipedia's desire to be current on subjects, events, etc., I believe that the current cover of Zeit magazine's Person of the Year should always be updated by using the most current Person of the Year cover. Johnrichardhall (talk) 19:07, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

current on subjects, events, etc.
; that might be the desire of a newspaper, magazine or other periodically published publication, but Wikipedia is not the news and Wikipedia is not necessarily focused on the recent. Articles about periodicals like magazines generally don't need to have their most recent cover used in the infobox unless it's really encyclopedically relevant to do so, since the article is not entirely about a specific issue of the periodical. The "Person of the Year" article is about the entire history of the issue and things related to it from it's very beginnings to present day; it's not really about the Thunberg issue about any other particular issue. Personally, it makes more sense to me from an overall Wikipedia perspective to actually use the cover of the very first "Person of the Year" issue in the infobox and then perhaps images of other covers which might have been highly controversially or otherwise the subject of critical commentary possibly at places within the body of the article near content related to such commentary so as to present things in more balanced manner to the reader. -- Marchjuly (talk) 22:16, 18 December 2019 (UTC)- Yes sir! (I removed the word "Keep" from my above statement). When I ponder "Wikipedia's desire isn't to keep current" I comprehend why academia holds a dim view of Wikipedia. Here's a suggestion: "Have no image in the infobox." That should satisfy everybody. In the end, whatever image is there--or if there is no image--is of no consequence.Johnrichardhall (talk) 07:58, 19 December 2019 (UTC)

- Delete JJMC89 sums it up nicely. Also, even if this was a free image, the first cover serves the encyclopedic purpose much better.--Muhandes (talk) 10:51, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
- That there is a (read: are many) free alternative(s) for the POTY article makes that much pretty open-and-shut. Besides that, anyone who would argue that Thunberg has more historical educational significance than Lindbergh probably shouldn't be taken seriously. Whether this should be used on the main article for Thunberg in the first place? That article has like three pages worth of honors and awards. Is POTY a great honor? Of course. Is it so uniquely central to her notability that covering it in prose without an image of the cover would be singularly detrimental to an encyclopedic understanding of the topic? That's less than evident. Obama and Clinton were both POTY twice, and we don't include a cover for them. In fact, something like a dozen people have been named twice, and we don't seem to include non-free covers for any of them. I don't see why Thunberg should be especially exceptional in this case.
