Comment i don't really care if this image is kept; but when deleting raster "duplicates" of SVGs, please look which image is the original - in this case, the bitmap version, which is an excerpt from a historical document. In some cases, the license (or just prudence) may require the original to be kept for reference. Also, the images are not the same - look at the hands, hair and facial expression (the difference is much bigger for Image:Human.png vs Image:Human.svg though). By extension of the argument of this deletion request, Image:PPlaqueLarge.png would have to be deleted in favor of Image:Pioneer plaque.svg - that would be a very bad idea IMHO, since the SVG version is a manual re-creation of the NASA original. We want to be able to check whether the SVG version is correct, right? Also keep in mind that in case of icons etc, the png version may be hand-optimized to work with Internet Explorer's clunky PNG implementation, while the rendered SVG wouldn't work. So - please do not blindly delete PNG files that have an SVG version available. We had many long and ugly fights about this. To cite from COM:DG: A clear example which is never exact enough a duplicate to be speedily deleted would be an SVG replacement of a PNG file. Regards -- Duesentrieb(?!) 16:25, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
