thread_title:  Pictures 

message: This article needs stuff on John Waters and his lifelong fascination about Jayne Mansfield. It may very well include references to his biography Filthy: The Weird World of John Waters, his film Mondo Trasho, and many many subtle and not-so-subtle recurrence of JM in his work. In Bodies Out of Bounds: Fatness and Transgression by Jana Evans Braziel and Kathleen LeBesco, he is quoted to idolize JM all his life. The article may also refer to Hollywood Babylon, Kenneth Anger's magnum opus that caught Water's fancy. Looking up the stuff right now, but it would be very helpful if someone could lend a hand there. Aditya(talk • contribs) 17:27, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:Jaynemansfield2.jpg

message: I added a section for novels referencing Jayne Mansfield, and included the reference from Broom of the System.  A recent Penguin Books cover of the novel actually features the street network on the cover, but I decline to go looking for an image of this to meet Wikipedia's fair use guidelines.65.117.234.99 (talk) 14:01, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: ''Broom of the System'' reference

message: :Image:Hollywoodbabylon.jpg, :Image:Siouxsie KTFM.jpg and :Image:Jun63 cover Playboy.jpg were recently removed citing WP:NFCC violation because the images are not mentioned in the article. I don't see in the policy where it say the image must be mentioned. Looking at the article with the images here, I feel their "presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." (as stated in the policy.) I feel the images should be put back. Richard-of-Earth (talk) 21:07, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I can agree to that. I have tried putting them back. Aditya(talk • contribs) 22:31, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I asked for more eyes to have a look from Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Richard-of-Earth (talk) 08:59, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Use of the “Kiss Them for Me” cover did not significantly increase reader understanding of mentions of the band and the single, but if desired the caption could be included in the article text. Mentions of the Playboy cover and article are fully understandable without actually showing the cover, but if desired the caption could be included in the article text. I could imagine some article content that would justify the use of the Hollywood Babylon cover, but there is nothing in the article now that needed use of the cover for reader understanding. And a better illustration for that section would be the iconic :File:Sophia and jayne.jpg. —teb728 t c 21:36, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: This is a textbook NFCC violation, failing, inter alia, the standard that the image's "omission would be detrimental to [the reader's] understanding." As teb728 accurately notes, the images conveys nothing related to the that a textual reference would not. This is a standard NFCC situation, and consensus has been overwhelming that a nonfree cover image cannot be used to "illustrate" the publication or existence of the cover. Unless the propenents of including these coverage images can produce sourced commentary regarding the significance of these images in the context of the relevant article, their arguments should be dismissed as frivolous.

replies: text: If you keep ignoring the provided sourced commentary and the benefits for which it's included, it's no wonder that you find the argument frivolous. The book cover was not provided illustrate the publication nor the existence of the cover. If you cared to read the fair use rationale, you'd seen that the book cover is included to provide an image of the way media of the time represented "actress Jayne Mansfield", not the book itself, which is included as one particular depiction of her for which there's no replaceable free image for the same use. If you want to remove the images as non compliant, first gain a consensus that they are not compliant through AfD and wait for it to be closed. Diego (talk) 15:18, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: A statement of the contents of a book is not sourced commentary regarding its cover image. The point should be blindingly obvious. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 01:46, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

text: If you're going to say things which are obviously incorrect, you should expect people to point your errors out. And WP:CONS is subordinate, by its own terms, to the WMF resolution regarding nonfree content. The use claimed here does not even fall into any of the three primary categories identified by the WMF, so the case for including it is particularly weak. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 23:09, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: So, there are some three mythical categories that the WMF recognized as the only valid ones, and that are not listed in the Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria which this image mets? Since you think you are in the position to believe that your opinions are THE TRUTH and keep using terms you've been told that are insulting, I won't continue this conversation here until the AfD finishes.

thread_title:  Treasures  

message: When watching the Escrow episode of Dead Like Me, I was baffled by a breakfast order being named "a Jayne Mansfield." I searched for an explanation, and found this article. In the section about her death, Daisy is quoted from that episode as referring to the breakfast in question as "...blueberry muffins with their tops cut off." What she actually says is "Blueberry muffin but just the top of the muffin." Firstly, I guess the quote should be corrected (the correct wording is easily verified). Secondly, this new (i.e., correct) phrasing does seem to reduce the link to the decapitation myth, as the "punchline" of the Jayne Mansfield naming joke seems mainly to be the visual appearance of the breakfast (i.e., that it looks like a pair of breasts). This latter point is of course speculation on the intention of the writers, but then so was the original reference in the article, and it would seem that original speculation is a bit weakened without the erroneous quotation?
