 Keep: The file is in use on many Wikipedia pages, from bar:Catalanischa Keapa to zh:交錯 (幾何). This still JPEG version is a significantly higher-resolution than the animated GIF, so it's not a duplicate. Under COM:INUSE, we should thus treat this file as being useful for an educational purpose. --bjh21 (talk) 17:09, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep: I agree with all arguments from User talk:Bjh21. The JPEG is 675 × 599 pixels while the gif is only 256 x 256. Should you also consider that gifs tend to be CPU intensive in old machines. --Cyberpunk (talk) 17:49, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep No valid deletion rationale provided. The two images under comparison serve different purposes; one is lower-resolution and animated; the other is higher-resolution and static. Beyond issues of older machines and bandwidth (the animation is 10x the file size of the jpg), many people find animated gifs annoying. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:56, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep Per David Eppstein. I find them extremely annoying and should not be replaced without good reason. Imagine everything was rotating here: en:Catalan_solid - Christian75 (talk) 01:44, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep Je suis d'accord avec les remarques précédentes. Les images sont différentes et ne jouent pas le même rôle. Une image immobile est parfois préférable. I agree with the remarks above. Not the same image, not the same purpose. Not moving picture is sometimes better. HB (talk) 17:21, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
