Comment Looks to me like the following are below TOO, in roughly decreasing order of my confidence in that:
- That is not by any means an exhaustive list, just enough of these to make me dubious about this DR. I lean toward a procedural keep unless Krd wants to take the time to try to narrow this down to ones that are over TOO. - Jmabel ! talk 23:01, 16 April 2026 (UTC)
- I agree with procedural keep. Lots of different logos with different levels of complexity from different countries and hence different COM:TOO /country/ to take into account. Nominate again one by one and a discussion can be held about each logo instead of all at the same time. Jonteemil (talk) 14:01, 6 July 2026 (UTC)

Unused AI slop Dronebogus (talk) 14:48, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
This seems to show what it says? Why is that slop? Someone might need this to show the topic or whatever. You seem to be just wanting to delete it because it is AI generated? Nesnad (talk) 14:04, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
- If you wanted to illustrate emotion, you should use pictures of or by actual humans. Take File:Centreville High School (Virginia) 1998 · DD-SP-99-04111.JPEG for example. It shows real people in a relatable situation— losing a sports tournament. The context is valuable and their feelings are real and powerfully conveyed by their body language and expressions. It’s a moving picture. The only issue is it’s slightly grainy on account of being an older image. The AI goes for a SUPER-DUPER-ULTRA-6K-ULTRA-HD-ULTRA-REALISTIC hyper-closeup and and the result is something that is repulsive in its artificiality and unnecessary detail without the simple humanity of the photograph. Simply put, it’s a bad image that distracts from what it’s already illustrating poorly. Dronebogus (talk) 16:56, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
- Like I said before, then campaign for a rules change. As it is, you are suppose to assume good faith on the part of the uploaders and assuming they wanted to share bad images is unfair. And beyond that, you seem to think that AI makes things unworthy, but that's just an opinion. You say it's repulsive and etc but I'm not sure everyone sees the world through the same eyes. If the rules change, and we can't upload AI, then that is the way it becomes. But without that rule, I think this upload is just as valid as a photo or a drawing or a SVG file or a render from Blender etc, it's just another way that people illustrate things in the 21st century. Nesnad (talk) 19:34, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
- Beyond the aesthetics generative AI is an ethical black hole founded on rampant plagiarism that will likely be hit with a tsunami of copyright infringement cases in the coming years. On the other hand people have been using photography for 200 years and drawing and painting since… well, forever, and neither of those have the issues or divisiveness AI has. It’s the difference between using something because it does something that couldn’t be done before and using something that does the same thing as perfectly good existing technologies just because it’s new. Dronebogus (talk) 00:52, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
- The same was said about photography when it came, that it would destroy "real" art and it was inferior to paintings etc etc. Many made your exact same (or similar) arguments against photography because it was mechanical and "not real" and etc etc. Ref: https://daily.jstor.org/when-photography-was-not-art/ I think you just have an irrational fear or hatred for AI work. Yes, it shouldn't be the only tool people use. But thinking it is "likely" to be considered infringement doesn't make it so, unless you are the creator of the universe. And if it were to ever be considered infringement, Wikimedia has a robust copyvio system that can handle that if need be. (You are ignoring though that some AIs aren't even trained on copyrighted works, there are many ways to train machine brains.) I do think people should use many different tools and people that only use AI should expand and try other methods of illustration, too. That said, you seem to think things are inherently bad just because they are AI, which seems unfair. Nesnad (talk) 06:59, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
- We aren’t talking about fine art here. We are talking about utilitarian art. Photography largely outmoded painting as utilitarian art because it is superior to it in that field in every way. AI is not superior to photography as utilitarian art because people instinctively trust, even though image manipulation is as old as photography itself, that the “camera never lies”. And good-faith contributors on Wikimedia probably aren’t maliciously manipulating images. People associate AI with deepfakes, hoaxes, “hallucinations”, and nonsense misinformation like putting glue on pizza to make the cheese stick. And even good faith AI contributors can’t fully control those things. Dronebogus (talk) 16:39, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

It is surprisingly difficult to find good quality free educational photos of distinct human facial expressions of different emotions. Hence, in teaching v: Motivation and emotion, I also use some AI images. The quality of the AI image generations for facial expressions improves each year I teach this unit. Sincerely, James -- Jtneill - Talk
- I provided an example. I don’t know how people find these hard to find. --Dronebogus (talk) 13:12, 24 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Dronebogus the example you offered, in my opinion, is not a sufficiently good teaching example of a disappointed facial expression portrait and is low resolution (1,250 kb before any cropping with a dead link to the high-res version). The image is also culturally-specific (US college sporting context) rather than generic/universal.
- Are you aware of other images that may be suitable e.g., for use in this lecture about 20 individual emotions and, more specifically, this slide about disappointment? -- Jtneill - Talk 13:49, 24 March 2026 (UTC)
- File:Wayuu woman with sad face in the market buying.jpg Dronebogus (talk) 15:08, 16 April 2026 (UTC)
- That's a promising candidate for illustrating disappointment (thankyou for the suggestion). However, it also shows the challenges of educatively illustrating the subtle differences in facial expression for different types of human emotions. The Wayuu woman image (as per the name of the file) better illustrates the emotion of sadness (notice the downturned mouth at the corners) or perhaps disgust (scrunched nose) which differ from the emotion of disappointment (where the mouth and nose are typically more neutral). Essentially, disappointment is more suppressive whereas sadness is more expressive.
- For noting: v:Motivation and emotion/Book/2022/Disappointment is being edited by User:Dronebogus and myself. -- Jtneill - Talk 22:33, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

Delete Inappropriate to have an AI's imagining of what an emotion might look like in a human face when we have multiple images of the real thing. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 15:36, 4 June 2026 (UTC)
Delete Because it's just plain inaccurate and exaggerated. However, I think the arguments for an AI illustration of emotions are valid. -ThePaleorganizer (talk) 14:12, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
- Despite what Jtneill claims I really do not think there is such a thing as a facial expression even conveying disappointment in a vacuum, because disappointment is a contextual emotion (sadness + failed expectations). I’m not an assistant professor of psychology like they are, but I would walk out of any psychology class using AI slop in a lecture. Dronebogus (talk) 22:33, 17 July 2026 (UTC)

- Hi, I have no objection to the photo deletion, It was intended as a test upload to replace the unrelated photo of Marilyn Monroe. However, I would like to revert to the last edit which corrected the background of the dress. It is cited that the dress was a runway piece, and there is no proper documentation that the designer used Marilyn as an inspiration. I see that if I revert, the runway pic is still on the page, what is the best way to resolve? Cryptoline (talk) 23:16, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
File:La Shawn Ford 2019 Chicago mayoral forum December 2018.jpg
The resolution on this image incredibly low and there are numerous, other photos on Wikimedia Commons that show LaShawn Ford and more that can be found on Paul Goyette's Flickr. Mpen320 (talk) 20:58, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
- STRONG KEEP; this photo was previously used in numerous articles, having for years been the best available commons illustration of Ford on Commons. Therefore, deleting this would corrupt the page histories of those articles SecretName101 (talk) 21:44, 30 March 2026 (UTC)
- Images on Wikimedia Commons are meant to educate. There is no educational value to this image. If this image were provided to a search and rescue team, he'd be a goner. We have an entire tag: subst:delete|reason=Low resolution/quality for these situations that I regret only learning about now. Also, we delete copyrighted images and that does not destroy page history, so why would this?-- Mpen320 (talk) 19:16, 8 April 2026 (UTC)
- @Mpen320 this was previously the best-available commons compliant image for the individual. Hence, it was widely used in page histories of articles related to him. Those page histories would be corrupted by a deletion, as the image that was used could no longer be rendered as they appeared. SecretName101 (talk) 06:44, 23 June 2026 (UTC)

File:2019 Chicago mayoral forum December 2018 (1).jpg
The resolution on this image incredibly low and there are numerous, other photos on Wikimedia Commons that show the subjects. There is also the photo from which this was cropped. There is not a value add to retaining this image. Mpen320 (talk) 21:01, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
Keep The existence "other photos" of a subject is not a standard reason for deletion. If I recall, this image was previously used on Wikipedia; and if so, its deletion would diminish the page history of any articles it appeared in. SecretName101 (talk) 06:20, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
- The reason for the deletion is that this the Chicago mayoral forum equivalent of Emil Wakim's unusable photo that is no longer used on his page and exists on Wikimedia Commons as an example of an unusable photo. The fact I mention there are other photos is to explicitly preempt your point that this would somehow diminish page histories, which is untrue. This image serves no education purpose and makes it eligible for deletion.--Mpen320 (talk) 15:53, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
- After some searching, I'd like to elaborate my position is best phrased as Per Commons:Project_scope#Scope_part_1:_Files, every file must be realistically useful for an educational purpose. This extracted image serves no such purpose as the subjects are shot in such a low resolution as to make them too difficult to identify.--Mpen320 (talk) 20:59, 23 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Mpen320 STRONG disagree. There is no alternative public domain photo depicting just these three particular individuals (each notable) debating each other. There is very much a realistic use for an educational purpose. SecretName101 (talk) 10:02, 27 March 2026 (UTC)
- I would say File:2019 Chicago mayoral forum December 2018 (a).jpg does what you are describing adequately without a poor resolution cropping. There is no debate in this photo as the other photo demonstrates it is Willie Wilson speaking.--Mpen320 (talk) 20:36, 27 March 2026 (UTC)
- It does not. It includes a much broader number of candidates. Also, the rationale you are using is not supported anyways by the existence of other photos that can serve the same educational purpose. It is for photos that cannot reasonably serve an educational purpose. That rationale does not apply to this photo, plain and simple. SecretName101 (talk) 21:42, 30 March 2026 (UTC)
