We have both File:Citadis dublin.jpg and File:Ireland - Dublin - Tram.jpg, which are the same image with slightly different contrast levels. The former has OTRS permission and correct attribution (according to OTRS member Sphilbrick), but no categories and little usage. The latter has poor formatting and incorrect info, but it is categorized and used on many pages in a half-dozen projects. I don't see the point in keeping both, and I'd rather see File:Ireland - Dublin - Tram.jpg deleted, but someone should be careful to merge the information correctly and accurately. Or should we keep both? I'm open to suggestions. – Quadell (talk) 12:55, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
- The permission statement covered several photos, and asserted ownership of the copyright.
- Many of the images appear in
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippe_Neerman
- In some cases, such as
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Philippe_Neerman2.jpg
- the source is identified as "personally" but in this case is stated as "available online". One possibility is that the person claiming ownership is not completely clear on what that means.--Sphilbrick (talk) 16:28, 19 June 2013 (UTC)--Sphilbrick (talk) 16:28, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
- So perhaps CGP Grey is the real author? Interesting. I have contacted him, and hopefully he can weigh in. – Quadell (talk) 17:13, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
- I did take that photo. The original should be on my Flickr stream somewhere licensed as Creative Commons Attribution. --CGPGrey (talk) 20:19, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
- Excellent. Okay, CGPGrey should be credited as the author on whichever one we keep (or both). Does anyone have an opinion on whether we should keep one or both? – Quadell (talk) 11:44, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

- Based on the above, I have updated File:Citadis dublin.jpg. I still think we should switch all references to this version, and delete File:Ireland - Dublin - Tram.jpg. It doesn't sound like there are any objections to this plan. – Quadell (talk) 19:57, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
Comment: No objections here but all uses of this heavily used image should be switched over to the other image then. --Leoboudv (talk) 04:12, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
