Infobox image

edit

The current infobox image is clear and current, but could we find an image that is more professional and flattering. It seems rather unkind to have the current image represent the page. (Aricmfergie (talk) 05:37, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Honestly. This just shows the inherent left bias of metawiki. 2605:59C8:1018:AD10:D099:1CA0:9237:E7D1 (talk) 13:59, 6 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Aricmfergie & above anon - Any picture of Ms. Sanders used in the WP article about her has to be in the public domain or under a CC-BY-SA license so WP/Commons can then use it. All the photos presently usable are located in the Commons Category of Sarah Huckabee Sanders by year. Maybe find one in that Category that you think is better and propose it for the infobox here on this page? Shearonink (talk) 15:05, 6 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Trillfendi Sanders is not a conventionally-beautiful woman. SO WHAT. The present image - as of this edit is further away from viewers and one can barely *see* her face. Is this *better*?!?. Does WP carefully pussyfoot around on images of male politicians? Is it only because Huckabee is a woman?... yeah what do you think. Shearonink (talk) 03:10, 8 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Shockingly enough... I'm a woman as well. If the official portrait can be used I will happily add it. If not, it can be deleted. Trillfendi (talk) 19:54, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
It is unclear to me what the actual copyright status is of the governor's official portrait - I was unable to find it on the Arkansas official state website. The stated status over at Commons is that it is in the public domain but there is a copyright notice on the "governor(dot)arkansas(dot)gov/page" website (that has Sanders' official portrait) stating "© Copyright 2024. All Rights Reserved. Arkansas.gov". The licensing notice on the image's Commons page states:
  • This media file is in the public domain in the United States. This applies to U.S. works where the copyright has expired, often because its first publication occurred prior to January 1, 1929, and if not then due to lack of notice or renewal.
but the image wasn't published before 1929 plus individual US states have copyright assertions that differ from official US government images (that are free/public domain). Shearonink (talk) 21:57, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
I have just tagged that image on Commons for deletion due to the lack of support for the public domain claim. The front page of the governor's website has a link right to the image, but that's it -- it goes right to the image, and does not include a page ceding rights in any form. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 00:32, 27 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Fair enough. Trillfendi (talk) 11:47, 27 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
