I still ask why. Why is it that 50% of the main images of the Chinese politicians in wikipedia such as Wu Yi and Wang Qishan are always of them in the US. Them in the oval office, them with a US flag in the background (With a PRC somewhere as well). Why is it that nobody can find an uncopyrighted image of them, when they are in their home country, or just a simple picture of them alone. Wikipedia is supposed to be international. The English wikipedia doesn't mean that it's all American or British PoV. Even though some editors might fail in doing such. For example, in the religious pages. Still, it only means that everything is in english, nothing more. So NPOV, we are not American, British, or European, or African, or Asian, or Latino. We are none when we step in wikipedia, but this time we are all as Chinese as possible. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.156.240.61 (talk) 09:16, 24 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
"Why is it that nobody can find an uncopyrighted image of them, when they are in their home country, or just a simple picture of them alone." Because it's generally very hard to find photos that can be uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons without violating somebody's copyright. Photos of politicians are often taken by news organization who wouldn't appreciate their content being re-posted. Photos produced by the United States government can be used for Wikipedia's purposes, however. If there were better sources, Wikipedia would be using them.
