I added this photo I found on Wikimedia Commons: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Portrait_of_novelist_Wiley_cash.jpg. It was removed from the article by another editor for what he called "obvious copyright reasons." I did not add the original photo, so I am confused. I don't understand what copyright has been violated. The photo is clearly marked with a CC-BY-SA license. If the license was incorrectly added to a photo that is copyrighted, then shouldn't it also be removed from Wikimedia Commons? That's why I assumed it was OK to add it in the first place.

Looks like you figured it out. The photos are obviously copyrighted and it's doubtfull that the user who added them to Commons owns the copyright. Yes, they should be deleted from there, but that's another project. So, feel free to nominate them for deletion. Jauerbackdude?/dude.12:13, 20 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
How are they obviously copyrighted? I did a reverse image search on both of the images in question, and could not find another copy of either photo to be able to back up who took it. All I could find for sure was a photo of CLiff Cash on this news story https://www.starnewsonline.com/story/entertainment/comedy/2023/10/26/wilmington-comedian-cliff-cash-to-tape-comedy-special-at-thalian-hall/71145290007/ that is clearly from the same photo session as the one on Wikimedia. That photo is credited only as "Courtesy of Cliff Cash," which most likely means that it is a PR photo that Cash or his publicist owns. Just to be clear, I'm not saying you're wrong and I'm not trying to be argumentative. It's just that there doesn't seem to be any evidence of who took the photograph other than that the user Jmatzir, whoever that is, uploaded it and claimed it as his or her own work. How do we know it wasn't Jmatzir's work? Mehendri Solon (talk) 18:02, 20 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
