Reason for keeping image
[edit]
There is no free photograph on this vehicle's cutaway model of its interior. These images cannot be replicated due to the removal of the truck's roof and support structure which gives the viewer an unobstructed view of the interior. After attempting to take photographs of my own to show the interior layout, I was unsuccessful due to the support pillars getting in the way. These images are one of a kind and cannot be replicated. They are needed to illustrate the interior design of the vehicle and to help illustrate the changes that have been made to the interior over time, which are hard to describe in detail but the images demonstrate quite efficiently. Additionally, these are promotional images from Honda and are intended to be shared and help to illustrate Honda's work. There should be no issue with its use as it is needed to illustrate the vehicle's interior layout and design. --McChizzle (talk) 12:32, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
- This is a picture (well, pictures) of a car model which still exists, so a free image can be created. --Stefan2 (talk) 23:51, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
- The model for which these pictures depict no longer exist. So I don't see how a free picture can be taken by someone, let alone me. When vehicles go out of production, models like these tend to get destroyed. I think I'm missing the point you are trying to make for what you are saying does not make a lot of sense to me. --McChizzle (talk) 00:20, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
- Why can't you just open the doors, take a couple of pictures and photoshop them so that any metal between the front door and the back door isn't shown? --Stefan2 (talk) 22:15, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
- That was the first thing I tried. With the camera equipment I have, there's an insufficient field of view between each open door to capture a view of the interior that would illustrate what is trying to be depicted and described on the Wikipedia article; I even tried my panoramic mode on my camera with no success. Also, I no longer have access to an older model interior vehicle; my neighbor who has/had a 2006 model no longer lives in my state in the US. Again, Honda makes these pictures available for purposes like this. So what specifically is the problem? --McChizzle (talk) 01:28, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
- Why can't people who own other camera equipment create replacement images? The purpose for which Honda makes the pictures available is irrelevant; the pictures are still non-free. --Stefan2 (talk) 10:05, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
