I am the subject in this photo (Britt Davis). I formally requested to have this photo deleted as it has negatively impacted my ability to be employed. We unfortunately still live in a society that view tattoos as taboo. I'm happy to provide a suitable alternative picture but please accept this request to delete this file. Thanks, Britt Woosie17 17 (talk) 21:43, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
Keep: The reasons given for the deletion do not meet the guidelines for deletion established in COM:DR. The picture is a valuable part of the historical record and should be kept. Mr. Davis is a respected professional athlete, and this picture is the only freely-licensed image in Commons that documents his tenure with the Denver Broncos. As such, it has a high educational and cultural value and should be preserved, both for contemporary and future use. Besides, tattoos are not as stigmatizing as the nominator suggests, nor are they very salient in the picture.

Kept: no valid reason for deletion. --Gbawden (talk) 11:48, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
