File:John Dye.jpg

This media was proposed for deletion as a replaceable non-free content. It was reviewed by an administrative user, or another user, who declined the deletion, judging that no adequate free-licensed file exists or can be created to fulfill the limited role performed by this file at the time deletion was considered. However, this file may be replaceable by a free file in other contexts, and in such cases the free file must take precedence. A discussion of this decision may exist on the file talk page. This template is for proposed files only. For non-proposed files, use {{Do not replace-F7}} instead.

Replaceable? All photos of this pictured subject taken on or after 1989 are still copyrighted. Photos taken before that year may or may not be copyrighted, but they must be considered non-free if in doubt. This subject is currently deceased, so this photo may not be replaceable. However, a photo of this subject may be released as free to share (but still copyrighted under Creative Commons); for now, omitting this image may hurt the quality of this article.

Respect for commercial opportunities: This is a publicized photo. It does not appear in Getty Images website or any other, so using this image for visual identification does not affect sales and commercial purposes of this image.

Minimality: This image is intended to increase understanding of the article's topic. Do not use this image elsewhere in English Wikipedia.
