Files found with Special:Search/189866422@N05
[edit]These images come from a photostream that seems to be a Flickrwashing account masquerading as a university's official Flickr account.
- File:Michelle Obama Visits UTSA (50379383958).jpg
- File:Paseo at UTSA.jpg
- File:Seb-exterior 2.png
- File:UTSA Main Campus Entrance.jpg
.jpg&action=edit&redlink=1){kind=link}
A few red flags in my view:
- The university does not list a Flickr account in its social media directory: https://www.utsa.edu/ucm/resources/social/directory.html
- File:Marcus Davenport at UTSA.jpg (from [1]), is a low-res version of this Getty Images photo.
- File:Michelle Obama Visits UTSA (50379383958).jpg (from [2]) and File:UTSA Main_Campus Entrance.jpg (from [3]) are explicitly marked "all rights reserved" in the metadata
- File:Seb-exterior 2.png (from [4])is a PNG version of this photo and File:UTSA Main_Campus Entrance.jpg is from [5]. They're both part of a Photoshelter site with strict licensing.
All the issues put together, I don't think the Flickr site is a reliable source of free images. Ytoyoda (talk) 20:32, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
Deleted: per nomination; flickrwashing - can't even spell university properly. --Gbawden (talk) 07:19, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
