 Keep File:Urška Žolnir 2012.jpg and similar photos per Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:2012 Summer Olympics medals: The main subject is still the person, not the medal in itself, therefore photographs of people showing their medal should be kept.  ℳ₪Zaplotnik  06:20, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Per COM:DM, it is 'very unlikely de minimis': "Copyrighted work X is a key part of the subject (eg it is the reason for taking the photo). Removing it would make the derivative work radically different, but potentially still useful... Example: File:Carla del Ponte Mladic 1.jpg... Example: File:Mario Bros with Cube - Graffiti.JPG..." It should also be noted that the photo has been used to illustrate the terms 'gold' and 'gold medal'. --Eleassar ^(t/p) 09:46, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

• I do not think that a mass deletion request is appropriate for these cases. We need to check them individually, i.e. is the depiction of the medal a case of de minimis, who is the sculptor of the medal, etc. And even if we have to delete some of these cases, it is best to research when we can undelete them. --AFBorchert (talk) 07:13, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

I've stricken out those that have been designed by Giuseppe Cassioli (d. 1942) and Josue Dupon (d. 1935) or are free due to the FOP provisions. I do not object to the procedural close if necessary. The lists of designers of the medals are available at [1] (summer) and [2] (winter). --Eleassar ^(t/p) 09:19, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Kept: per AFBorchert. There are very different cases. Mass request is inappropriate here. Please open single requests. Anatoliy (talk) 13:34, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
