The claim that this was forwarded to the uploader by the subject "for the purpose [of] setting his wikipedia page only" does not mean that the image is public domain. Is there a useable licence for such an image, or should it be deleted as no fair use claim would be possible for a living subject? Lord Belbury (talk) 16:27, 2 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Dear Lord Belbury..
 * Thanks for the takinig note of image. Its has been taken by my camera only. I am not aware how to share my camera data over here and it has been uploaded and used by many media that doesn't mean its a copy its my own Brakshit23 (talk) 16:41, 2 June 2022 (UTC)


 * The problem is that you say the subject has given you permission to upload the photo "for the purpose [of] setting his wikipedia page only", but you have uploaded it saying that it is public domain, meaning that anyone can use it for anything, outside of Wikipedia. I don't believe Wikipedia has a licence for "Wikipedia use only". --Lord Belbury (talk) 16:47, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
 * So, please suggest what to do? 1st Subject has no reservation about photo to be used by community of Wikipedia or someone else from any domain or media or non media personnel. 2nd if even you use it for the any article of him he has no issues with that. the article or language should be genuine and appropriate Brakshit23 (talk) 16:54, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
 * The subject would have to genuinely release the photo as public domain (or some similarly free licence). If he is only willing to grant a restricted permission where the photo can only be used on Wikipedia articles about him, I believe that Wikipedia would not accept that. --Lord Belbury (talk) 17:40, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
