[edit] Photo

I'm looking into which Image copyright tag we should be using for these photos. If nothing else, it certainly meets fair use, but maybe {{fairuseunsure}} isn't the correct tag? -Aude (talk | contribs) 17:17, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure which image you're specifically referring to, but I've found most images on the hijacker pages fit either PD-ineligible (ATM photos, security cameras, Al-Qaeda video, etc), or else/also the FBI tag, since most of the other photos we use were released in FBI press releases at some point.

I was looking at Image:KAlmihdhar.JPG, which had {{fairuseunsure}} (someone's changed it), and the ones removed by OrphanBot. I think the FBI tag might be suitable, however to say an FBI employee took the photo as part of his/her duties is likely inaccurate. And, the description on Wikipedia:Image_copyright_tags of {{PD-ineligible}} doesn't seem to quite fit. There's also a {{mugshot}} tag, though these aren't specifically mugshots but as you say security cameras or probably drivers license, passport, immigration... photos. I'm thinking we probably need to create another tag to add to Wikipedia:Image_copyright_tags that covers these cases. The same problems apply to FBI most wanted fugitives. With a proper tag, we won't need to be concerned about OrphanBot. -Aude (talk | contribs) 17:50, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Three photographs of al-Mihdhar released by the FBI.

When where these photos released by the FBI? At least the right one is clearly a different person and was released by the media, not the FBI. --Peephole 16:36, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
