File:YingYe3Jia1OST.jpg

Non-free album cover being used in a WP:DECORATIVE manner in Ying Ye 3 Jia 1#Soundtrack. Non-free album cover art is generally allowed to be used for primary identification purposes in stand-alone articles about albums, but its use in other articles is generally only allowed when the cover art itself is the subject of sourced critical commentary as explained in WP:NFC#cite_note-3 and the context for non-free use required by WP:NFCC#8 is evident. There is no such commentary for this particular album cover anywhere in the article, and the use of soundtrack album cover art in articles about films or TV programs is generally not allowed for this reason as explained in WP:FILMSCORE and MOS:TVPRODUCTION. If the soundtrack album is Wikipedia notable per WP:NALBUM and a stand-alone article about it can be created, this image would be fine to use in said article; otherwise, I don't see how this file can be kept based on the way its currently being used. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:45, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

File:Chewy Pet Food Logo.png

Appears to be PD-textlogo, not copyrighted/fair use The Quirky Kitty (talk) 05:32, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Convert license to {{PD-logo}}, replace non-free use rationale with {{Information}}, and then tag with {{Trademark}} and {{Copy to Wikimedia Commons}} per c:COM:TOO United States. For future refrence The Quirky Kitty, if you come across something as obvious as this, you probably don't need to start a discussion about it here at FFD. You can either be WP:BOLD and change the license and other stuff yourself, or (2) you can ask about it at WP:MCQ. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:22, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ahhh! I thought changing a file's license was generally a no-no. I see now, it's permissible without a discussion in very simple cases. The Quirky Kitty (talk) 06:25, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If someone reverts the changes you made and you're unable to convince them the licensing should be changed, then that would probably be the time to start a discussion about it at FFD. Copyright licenses like anything else on Wikipedia are added by users and often it's just assumed that any type of company logo needs to be uploaded as non-free content. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:27, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
