As the subject associated with them, I have requested removal of these photos for the following reasons:

Irrelevance/redundancy: Six outdated, low quality, personal photos uploaded by the same individual without my consent from trivial/personal events taken by friends/family rather than legitimate sources.

Libelous/Affecting my ability to make a living: Potential employers have given feedback that 1. My online presence is over-inflated with these excessive photos in relation to my relatively unknown status as an actor. 2. For the past four years, my physical appearance has been drastically different from what is depicted in these photos. I have also missed work opportunities because I am continuously and mistakenly identified by the appearance depicted in these photos. Because there have not yet been accurate or relevant photos of me submitted by sources other than the lone individual who uploaded these against my wishes (who has since been blocked from the English Wikipedia), these six outdated, unprofessional images that do not represent me in context or appearance now take up 100% of my Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons file catalog. Because these were uploaded without my consent, the professional damages I have experienced are a result of the uploader’s actions and not my own, as I have taken great measures to maintain an appropriate online presence in accordance with my career.

Until I am notable enough to have professional photos submitted by legitimate sources rather than low quality, irrelevant/redundant images by friends/family members, having these six questionable images associated with my name will continue to be detrimental to my profession and online presence. --2603:8001:8500:226F:BD05:A5FE:9FA6:993 18:26, 21 June 2022 (UTC) Brian Patrick Butler[reply]

  • Keep rights cannot be revoked, the uploader and copyright holder was made aware of this when they "donated" the items (which they did so they could self promote xwiki) and now they're regretting their decision. This isn't how the deletion process works. Praxidicae (talk) 13:52, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I mentioned initially that I did not upload these photos. They were taken by a local promoter who uploaded them without my permission before I was eligible for a Wikipedia page. My request for deletion of these photos is due to the fact that I am experiencing professional issues as a result of the actions of the person who uploaded these photos after I have taken great care to maintain an appropriate online presence. 2603:8001:8500:226F:24D5:F2FF:5632:D141 17:28, 21 July 2022 (UTC) Brian Patrick Butler[reply]
 Keep These photos are not low quality for encyclopedia and educational purpose. Consent of taking and publishing photos of a person are not required in US per this table. Please note that "Generally, images are not removed simply because the subject does not like them". Thank you for your understanding. --SCP-2000 16:02, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kept: per discussion. In addition, I think I should remark similar photos are found on IMDB, https://m.imdb.com/name/nm0743953/mediaindex?ref_=m_nm_pv_mi_sm. --Ellywa (talk) 15:14, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
