What's "normal" wear and tear?

Had a tenant in my place for 6 years. Would hand prints on and scuff marks on ceilings and nail holes everywhere for pictures etc be considered normal wear and tear?

He was a relatively good tenant so I don't wanna nickel and dime him. I sorta expected to repaint. but sheesh. why's the ceiling so dirty!? lol

what would I even deduct for that from the security deposit? Or is that just standard wear and tear?
