A selfie? Certainly not. Who is the copyright holder, and where is their permission? 2003:C0:8F16:EE00:C121:9381:69B1:FD49 17:04, 1 March 2023 (UTC)
- Where does anything say that it is a selfie? It was uploaded in 2018 by a user called HossenfelderS. It may well be that this was Hossenfelder herself uploading a publicity picture which she owns the rights to. The picture is the same one she uses on her YouTube channel banner (only flipped) so we know she has rights to the image. The question is whether the user who uploaded it is really her and is in a position to licence it to us. I think it is likely but that's not the same as proof.

- Depends on what legal system we are talking about. Since we are talking about a German scientist, we may safely assume that this is within the German legal system where the copyright (or Urheberrecht, rather) is non-transferable. Only the photographer can own it; it is not possible to sell it along with the usage rights.
- So, assuming that the user HossenfelderS is Ms Hossenfelder herself, the only way for her to own the copyright is if this is a selfie. --2003:C0:8F16:EE00:1C3B:3586:A0E3:9634 19:41, 1 March 2023 (UTC)
- The file got uploaded three days after the creation of the article on enwiki. @Jesswade88: have you maybe contact to Sabine Hossenfelder and can help about this topic? --ɱ 18:37, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
Kept: insufficient reason for deletion. Could well be a selfie/self-timer. I can't find no other evidence of copyvio. --P 1 9 9 ✉ 18:37, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
