The photographer has requested that we delete these files (see Ticket#2022071310002821) as he misunderstood what the standard permission boilerplate means when he sent it to us and did not actually intend to put them under a free license - he is selling these images for money and would like to continue doing so. --Tgr (talk) 02:41, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
Keep The courtesy clawback period is over and the license is permanent. Others may already have republished in good faith. He can still sell signed copies of the images and make and sell derivative images, like adding text and blowing up to poster size. There is no commercial market for the images, Getty has hundreds of images of each of these people that they license, and people will choose those images, to avoid the legal complications of dealing with someone who revokes legal contracts. That is why I always see images freely available from Commons not being used by news organizations, and they use the version from Alamy instead, where there are fewer legal complications. --RAN (talk) 04:01, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
Keep per above. We appreciate that he shared these photos. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:40, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
Keep the request in VRTS was suspiciously similar to a separate photographer. I would guess that "something" have happened, probably someone picked the images and violated the license by not giving proper attribution, but I would prefer fixing the problem, not to destroy the images. --grin ✎ 21:03, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
Kept: per discussion. —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 21:35, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
