Alternative picture for wikipage

[edit]

Hi Magog,

You might not remember me but you helped me a while ago setting up the picture for the Muslim Shishani wikipage. I was very new to wikipedia editing at the time and therefore chose a file which was posted on twitter which was also his most recent picture. Now that I have a bit more knowledge on the subject I think a screenshot from an interview in 2018 is a better choice. My reasoning for this is that since it is uploaded on youtube, it automatically has a CC BY license unlike the tweet the current picture is from.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8rDHAQ09BM This is the video in question. I already took a good screencap. On the filepage for the picture do I just replace the current picture or do I upload a new one and therefore get a new filepage as well? TedKekmeister (talk) 13:39, 3 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@TedKekmeister: Content uploaded to Youtube is not automatically CC-BY. You could use a cropped screenshot from Youtube but would need to mark it as fair use. I would upload it as a new image. Magog the Ogre (tc) 22:30, 5 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
