This file was initially tagged by Kzirkel as Speedy (speedydelete) and the most recent rationale was: Near duplicate of File:Barbara Liskov computer scientist 2010.jpg

It's true, but it's not a valid basis for speedy deletion. Sending to COM:DR... DMacks (talk) 03:19, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure why it's not a valid reason? It's my photo, it's an awkward crop, the color is off. The other image is a better version of the same subject. - Kenneth C. Zirkel (talk) 11:46, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Those new comments are valid reasons for regular deletion (here, at COM:DR), and "near duplicate" is a good summary of them. But they are outside the realm of COM:SPEEDY because it is only a near duplicate, with notable differences (as you see) beyond just exact rescaling. DMacks (talk) 15:13, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's my photo and I would like it deleted. What further do I need to do? - Kenneth C. Zirkel (talk) 01:57, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
