Most probably related to the User:Nnimrodd, who was banned on Hebrew and English Wikipedias. Marina T. made many edits about Israeli culture, and created many articles on non-notable topics, to the point of being disruptive. This account was blocked for massive uploading of unsourced and/or confusingly licensed images.
 * Evidence

Lately mostly edits articles about Bracha L. Ettinger and Michal Heiman. The text of the articles is probably OK, but the images related to them are sourced in a very suspicious way.

The latest image in question is Image:Bracha Lichtenberg Ettinger - 2007 - berlin.jpg. It is essentially the same as Image:Bracha2007 black white.jpg, but has different licensing. The circumstances make it very unlikely that the real rights holder suddenly popped up and uploaded the image under the GFDL.

Reporter's comment - See the User:Sofie Van Loo's response at my talk page: User talk:Amire80. I really want to assume good faith, but this looks too suspicious. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 13:00, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Conclusions
 * I'd like to withdraw this allegation and apologize if anyone has been hurt. The copyright for the problematic images has been cleared. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 16:10, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
