The file File:Rene Levesque - election 1973 - LAC PA115039.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Non-free file being used in René Lévesque and 1973 in Canada and neither use seems to meet WP:NFCC#1 or WP:NFCC#8. The rationales provided for each use seem to be arguing that this is a "historic image" of some kind just because it depicts a historic event, but this is not really the case for the reasons given in WP:ITSHISTORIC. Since free equivalent images of Lévesque are available, a non-free one is needed for primary identification purposes of him per WP:FREER, which means that the photo itself needs to be assessed per NFCC#8. There's no specific sourced critical commentary related to the photo itself which means that the justification for non-free use generally required per WP:NFC#CS is lacking. Simply wanting to show the photo of an event because the event itself is historical in not really enough justify non-free use; there needs to be sourced content specific to the photo so that omitting the photo would be detrimental to the understanding of that content, and that is not the case at all with respect to either use.
