Files in Category:Anonymous (group)

edit

Out of scope: unused photos, logos, and artwork related to the "Anonymous" movement. There's a practically infinite number of images of the Guy Fawkes mask and the headless-suit emblem online; we don't need to collect all of it.

Good catch. At a quick look many of these files are unnecessary. Let's hope an admin to delete most or all of them. 191.125.32.12 01:03, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weak  Keep - (current) internet culture is culture too, who knows what will be in 50 years. (altrough there is certainly trash such as File:Solomonz.jpg) TheImaCow (talk) 09:21, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There's a bunch of in-use images in the category, which I haven't nominated, which are more than adequate to represent the topic. A couple of representative examples are File:Anonymous emblem.svg, File:Anonymous Flag.svg, File:Anonymous art.svg, and literally thousands of photos in Category:Demonstrators and protesters wearing masks of Guy Fawkes.

Well, something caught my eye: While a sizable portion of the proposed deletions above, guessing from their filenames, pertain to Asia and Latin America, the litteral thousands of (well, actually only 1020) photos in Category:Demonstrators and protesters wearing masks of Guy Fawkes, or at least the 300-something that show up in {{Geogroup}}, are exclusively located in North America, Europe, and Australia. Maybe you wanna give this another thought. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 20:48, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Most of the images I've listed for deletion with geographic references (e.g. File:Anonymous austria.svg, File:Brasil Anonymous.jpg, File:Myanmar Anonymous logo.jpg, etc) are logos, not photos - mostly variants on File:Anonymous emblem.svg. While the lack of context makes it impossible to say for sure, it's fairly likely that most, if not all, of these are from non-notable online groups.

Sounds reasonable. Changing to  Delete. TheImaCow (talk) 15:14, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kept: no consensus to delete; may be better to deal wiuth individually, no valid reason for deletion.  — billinghurst sDrewth 07:25, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
