Replaceable fair use File:Namrata Purohit.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Namrata Purohit.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 14:20, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Whpq: Hi, sorry I'm a newbie and still learning the ropes. Are you saying I should reupload this as a free file? It is from an event that was covered by various portals therefore widely available, but I still thought each of those portals would have rights. Please do help me out, trying to get a hang of things here! Thisisfinal (talk) 18:49, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No, you should not upload it again under as a free file as that would not be true. Wikipedia accepts images which have been released by the copyright holder under a sufficiently free license. Under vary specific circumstances, non-free images may be used but they must meet all of the non-free content criteria. In this specific case, the image is not free. And as the subject is a living person, it's expected a free image could easily be made by somebody taking a picture of the subjet and releasing it under a free license. Essentially what this means is that the image you uploaded is not usable on Wikipedia. I hope this explanation clears things up for you. Regards. -- Whpq (talk) 19:07, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Whpq: Oh, alright. I checked the pages of other personalities and noticed that they all used pictures from public appearances (usually red carpet events), which is why I thought to use such a picture for her as well - what category would that need to be uploaded under?. I will try looking for a free picture and upload that instead in this particular case though Thisisfinal (talk) 08:58, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You can't upload that picture. You need to find a freely licensed image. -- Whpq (talk) 12:56, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
