Hello,
There's a bit of discussion about deleting old versions of fair-use files in the Hebrew Wikipedia and it may be interesting to other projects as well.
The main questions is: Should old versions of fair-use files be deleted? The two main points that support the deletion are that it saves space on the server and that keeping a version of a non-free file violates the fair use policy, because the old version of the image can be viewed, but is not actually used in any relevant article.
I just want to see if I understand this correctly. Is this a reference to files where the current revision is included in some article based on a fair use rationale, but the file also has earlier versions that are not so used?
Yes, that's exactly what i referred to.
