I'm here to reply to what you claimed about my edits and your proof of evidence. I wasn't removing "a lot of content", I was reverting improper edits, almost all of which being photos. If you look through the additional edits from today/yesterday, it's also his photo being removed. Could you perhaps guess why? It's because there isn't a proper permission for these photos to be used. Unfortunately, it's not as simple as "I want there to be a photo, use whatever photo you'd like" Although I see the point you're getting at with the video as your evidence, Wikipedia has a strict policy and criteria on this sort of stuff.

If I look at the wikimedia commons page of the photo I believe you used, it is stated: "This media file is missing evidence of permission. It may have an author and a source, but there is no proof that the author agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide evidence of permission by either providing a link to a site with an explicit release under a free license or by sending a declaration of consent to confirm copyright ownership by email. This also applies if you are the author yourself."

Take particular note of where it says "Please provide evidence of permission by either providing a link to a site with an explicit release under a free license or by sending a declaration of consent to confirm copyright ownership by email". Images of living people must be released under a Creative commons license, you can't just upload any image, even if Joey said "put an image there, i don't care which one" because that is not explicit permission for usage of specific photos. He would have to explicitly post, or speak about a specific image and say that he provides permission for using it under a creative commons license.
