Sorry, but the photo of an ID card is not "an official document" (in accordance of the licence template) but the own work of the subject of the photo or the photoman. In stead of that, a photo of the entire ID card is possible to be use i think. Olivier LPB (talk) 10:46, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

 Keep - Why would a photo from an ID not be considered an official document? It's produced by the government for use as a document, right? Surely if the entire ID card is usable then the cropped photo is as well. Di (they-them) (talk) 12:53, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

@Di (they-them) Because the photo is only a component of an official document. The photo itself is not the document and the document is (probably) not the source of the photo. I'd think of it this way: if a government document contained an organization logo, that logo would not suddenly become an official document, simply something that's contained in a document.

But identification photos are created specifically for use in the document, it's not just a random photo that the government found somewhere. Di (they-them) (talk) 18:41, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

However, as such images are often produced by a "photo booth", i.e. an automated system, couldn't {{PD-CCTV}} eventually be applicable? --Túrelio (talk) 14:27, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

I think that's a bit of a stretch. Di (they-them) (talk) 17:33, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

If it is produced by a photo booth, it would be more like a selfie. Tbhotch™ 01:32, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
