Unknown author, image culled from sajed.ir website, probable COM:COPYVIO. Ellin Beltz (talk) 17:41, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sajed.ir is biggest database related to Iran-Iraq War. We didn't ask them about identity of photographers but some of the pictures have the information but others don't. All of its pictures are unique and you can't find them in other websites (first show). We use pictures of Sajed since five years ago and many sysops approved

I've found them using images from a BBC photographer which someone else uploaded to Commons. We need to reopen this discussion as there is no indication that they own (or worry about who owns) the pictures on their site. And if they were the world's largest collection of images on _____(fill in the blank)___, that still wouldn't make it ok to use non-free images on Commons.
