List of images in Gray's Anatomy: I. Embryology[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Also proposing:

Many of these galleries were created in 2006 when a large amount of content was taken from Gray's Anatomy 20th edition (1918) and put onto Wikipedia, a process that greatly expanded our anatomical content. They are duplicated in greater detail by the much more expansive commons category: commons:Category:Gray's Anatomy plates

However, Wikipedia has now expanded beyond the point where these galleries are useful to readers. Readers would be better served by going to commons where there are a wider variety of images from more sources of more structures and many in higher quality. I think the reason that these were created in general was to help create articles and because commons did not have the widely accepted function in 2006 that it does not. Now that articles have been expanded I think these have fulfilled their purpose. We do not have "List of images in [source]" for any other groups of articles I can think of. As Wikipedia is not a gallery (WP:NOTGALLERY) and in view of what I've said, I'm proposing deletion.

This proposal mirrors a "testing the waters" proposal for the twelfth list in which consensus was to delete: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of images in Gray's Anatomy: XII. Surface anatomy and Surface Markings
This proposal follows a previous proposal in 2007 of which consensus was to transwiki the content. (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of images in Gray's Anatomy: I. Embryology)

Articles plastered with templates and this deletion nomination moved to a more appropriate title. --Tom (LT) (talk) 03:46, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Transwiki all of them per nominator (I do not expect anyone to disagree). The procedure might be a bit tricky though (read: I did not understand the instructions), notably there might be tricks with the license. Tigraan (talk) 12:20, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete - these lists are redundant and unnecessary, all images are already at Commons. Previous AfD closed as "transwiki to Wikisource", but are they at Wikisource? Anybody who wants to see these images can go to Gray's Anatomy and check out the Commons link. Kraxler (talk) 15:23, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Like what Kraxler said, users can easily search for those images on Wiki Commons. The lists don't really serve any purpose now. — TaqPol _talk _contrib 07:39, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - per above. --92slim (talk) 18:24, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
