Talk:Baha Abu al-Ata

Picking up the photo
, I wonder if you could refer me to the policy says that "we usually wait at least 6 months after death to see if a free image can be found and uploaded", I haven't seen anywhere to wait 6 months for using of fair use. Thanks!Saff V. (talk) 10:18, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
 * , I don't think it is spelled out anywhere but it is a by-product of WP:NFCC. Before we can claim that there is "no free equivalent", we have to make an attempt at finding a free alternative. That means more that just searching Google. You could try contacting IDF or placing Photo requested on this talk page. was the first person to relay this general consensus to me. Maybe, they can tell us where this consensus was reached. There is also a lot of discussion in the archives of the talk page for our non-free content policy. ---  C &amp; C  (Coffeeandcrumbs) 11:43, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clear and complete answer, You are right, I must do its best to find free photo of him, But after all attempts, I prefer to trust to the WP:NFCI which demanded "Pictures of deceased persons, in articles about that person, provided that ever obtaining a free close substitute is not reasonably likely." instead of trust to consensus that I don't know where and between which users it was achieved!OK, first of all, Photo requested was inserted into the article.Saff V.
