•  Comment - Certainly an interesting and good enough portrait to be featured, and the information about the Hamer people looks like good documentation (I wouldn't personally know if it is), but what do we know about what permissions the subject gave for the photograph? The discussion on Flickr is about this as a photo for National Geographic, which, given its history of racism toward Africans and Aboriginal peoples around the world, doesn't strike me as a compliment, or at least an unmixed one. So I'd like to be a bit careful on the question of a feature. I hope someone here knows the photographer and can find out from him what she said about how she's happy for the photograph to be used and disseminated. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:46, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

• Is Wikimedia racist ? This picture was released with licence 2.0, so this is not National Geographic property. Beside, the political views (if still current) of the magazine do not engage the photographer's. How many respectful photographers (like Steve McCurry) have published there ? -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:01, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

• Maybe I'm being oversensitive. It's totally fine to take and display a photo like this one, and it's a very good photo. I'd just like to know whether the subject was fine with the photo being disseminated widely and understood that was a possibility, but perhaps we'll never know for sure the answer to that question. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:29, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

•  Support The DoF could have been a bit deeper, but the focus is on the eyes and the image is evocative. As for the privacy issue, the person looks into the camera and as such an implicit consent appears to have been given. Since the image is not unflattering (which would put the person in a bad light), I am willing to accept that as tacit approval.--Peulle (talk) 15:12, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

• I agree on approval to take the photo, but what about approval for x-amount of public dissemination? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 15:20, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

• What about disapproval ? She's beautifully dressed -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:48, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

• Yes, she is. I just would like to hear from the photographer. You feel like I'm being unreasonable? As I said, the photograph does merit a feature. Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:26, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

• The photographer certainly knows what licence 2.0 means :-) -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:27, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

• What does it mean? Ikan Kekek (talk) 15:04, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

• In my opinions it means the photographer considers this picture compatible with a widespread diffusion, like on Flickr already more than 37'000 views and many shares on the web. The template {{Personality rights}} is here -- Basile Morin (talk) 23:58, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

• [unindent] OK, that's as clear as anything the photographer would probably say, though I'd still love for him to participate.  Support for this worthy picture. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:25, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
