@DeFacto, whoops! Man, I cannot believe no one took a photo. Valereee (talk) 19:21, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

I'm sure someone did, but might not have categorised it sufficiently. There masses of poorly categorised photos on Commons. -- DeFacto (talk). 19:45, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

@Valereee, I found this one, but suspect it is a copyvio. -- DeFacto (talk). 20:28, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

I suspect it is, too, as I just uploaded it and then decided I'd better check to see if something I took off my tv was kosher lol...not sure how to mark something for speedy on WC. Valereee (talk) 20:36, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

@Valereee, I've tagged it as a copyvio, but you (as the uploader) could tag it as {{SD|G7}} to have it speedy deleted. -- DeFacto (talk). 21:04, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

Thanks, done! Valereee (talk) 21:37, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
