File:Declassified image of Conan, the dog who chased al-Baghdadi.jpg

[edit]

The photograph was tweeted by Donald Trump, not the copyright holder. There is no confirmation at the given source that the photograph is public domain, or taken by an employee of POTUS. Searching on DVIDS gives no matches to this photograph, indicating that there is no release by the military and the photograph may well not have been taken by a military service employee.

I think if you were to try walking into a military base as a civilian to take a photo of one of their dogs, you'd be shot. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 15:44, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Clindberg: what do you think? Would you be shot or just tasered? No wait, that wasn't what I wanted to ask. How probable would it be for this photo to be taken by a civilian? I think not very. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 15:47, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: It's on DVIDS and the notice says it's in the public domain. See: https://www.dvidshub.net/image/5872868/military-working-dog-who-sustained-minor-injuries-during-raid-has-returned-duty Johndavies837 (talk) 17:31, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Excellent research thanks. The photo was not a match for "Conan, dog", which was the most obvious search. We can consider this DR withdrawn and include a link to the DVIDS source, noting that DVIDS does not give a name for the photographer, or the dog.
P.s. worth quoting archive, which was not there until I added it, just in case it is later removed from DVIDS. --Fæ (talk) 17:43, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. I have updated the license. The photo was posted on October 30, when his name was still classified, so that's why there aren't any results when you search for Conan. Johndavies837 (talk) 17:48, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Kept: withdrawn, license review was also added by Fæ. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 17:56, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
