File:KingCrimson VinegarDoppio 2.jpg ( delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Uuruuseiyo ( notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

Delete. This file is not in the public domain, as the source was written in the 1990s by a currently (as of nominating) living person. In addition, the file is unused and will not see use for a long time as character lists do not use images for each character. - BRAINULATOR9 ( TALK) 00:34, 23 April 2019 (UTC) reply

Fails WP:NFCC#8: does not add educational, critical value but is a decorative image. ― Justin (koavf)TCM 02:08, 23 April 2019 (UTC) reply

Dubious "formula" with no use in real-world mathematics (despite its inventor spamming it all over the Internet to boost his ego); see [1] Equinox 19:09, 23 April 2019 (UTC) reply

File:Xi Jinping Poohbear comparison meme.jpg ( delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by EverettTheUrban ( notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

Non-free image that is not essential to the understanding of the topic. The censorship incident is a minor indecent. Fails WP:NFCC#8. Whpq ( talk) 21:26, 23 April 2019 (UTC) reply

It does help illustrate the meme, which text alone has difficulty conveying. weak keep Abzeronow ( talk) 22:22, 23 April 2019 (UTC) reply
The meme is a minor matter in the biography. At the time of nomination, there is literally a single sentence about Xi being compared to Pooh, and no actual commentary about the image itself. That really falls well short of the significant context that would be expected to support the inclusion of a non-free image. -- Whpq ( talk) 01:25, 24 April 2019 (UTC) reply
The meme is a significant example of ChiCom censorship surrounding matters deemed disrespectful or irreverent to Xi Jinping. As Abzeronow said it's difficult to convey via text only and I have included this on other articles pertaining to PRC censorship. EverettTheUrban ( talk) 07:04, 24 April 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - according to Template:Non-free film screenshot, the only explicitly allowed fair use of screenshots from a copyrighted film is "for critical commentary and discussion of the film and its contents", and its current usage to illustrate an internet meme or censorship is not covered by that rationale. There are plenty of freely licensed images for Xi Jinping, and as far as Chinese censorship is concerned, the Winnie the Pooh incident is extremely minor. The blocking of Google and Facebook etc. is of far more consequence. - Zanhe ( talk) 18:03, 24 April 2019 (UTC) reply
