restricted photos
Yes, I am the photographer. I mean I don't know if the Huao subjects want their photos spread out, so I would only post them if they couldn't be copied. I think there's a way to do that. It would be nice to have a Wikipedia for Dummies book so I wouldn't have to keep flipping through screens to figure stuff out.Nimishillen (talk) 01:39, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
 * , Ah, I misunderstood. This raises a question I haven't looked into on Wikipedia. It's my understanding that if you take a photo of someone where is is more like a portrait than them as a small part of a scene, and where they are clearly identifiable, you need to obtain a photo release from them in order to publish the photo. But I've not seen anywhere on Wikimedia Commons where this is raised as a concern. So I do not know how to answer your question, now that I understand it better  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 13:51, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
