•  Question Nice light and composition but what caused the red marks like irritation of the skin under the lips? Ephemeral or permanent? It's not written in the description and I find them distracting. Are these stains representative of the person, or can they cause embarrassment? -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:58, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

• I don't know. There's also an acne below the left eye. The good thing is that the author didn't remove them, which would give the face an unrealistic look.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 08:29, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

•  Oppose The photographer uploaded the picture but the {{PR}} template was added by someone else. I don't mind the little red spot, but at full size the wound with the wrinkled skin reveals a sort of scab that is quite unsightly. And in the possible case where this visible mark was ignored by the subject or even undesirable, then the promotion of this picture (which will automatically be a future candidate at the POTY competition) could cause embarrassment. There are many pictures of different children in the series. Of course, in case where it is a permanent characteristic and therefore an assumed identity part, the portrait is different. However, nothing guarantees that this detail goes unnoticed in the other case -- Basile Morin (talk) 09:11, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

• I don't get what's embarrassing here. It's likely that the scar is an HSV-1 symptom or a healing wound. We already have an FP of a girl with a similar scar below the lips, which used to be a candidate in the POTY 2012 competition, and there's nothing embarrassing at all.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 11:38, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

• Would you enjoy a picture of you with herpes buttons published on Commons, so that anyone can use it in newspapers, for example to illustrate an article about herpes? Don't forget that everybody are allowed to add the Category:Human herpesvirus infections if it happens to be true. And idem everybody are allowed to crop the image to zoom on the face close-up -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:03, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

• That's a personal thing. If the author provides consent that the picture can be used, there's no reason to be afraid of the consequences (BTW, it's debatable whether it's herpes or a healing wound). I was once shot with a large acne on my cheek for my graduation from primary school long time ago, and I didn't want to get it removed because my face would look very unnatural. I don't regret it at all.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 12:07, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

• Awkward Family Photos :-) Here this girl has wonderful eyes for sure, but also a red halo around her mouth, and this does not go unnoticed, even at thumbnail size -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:19, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

​* Oppose as above. What is Wikimedia policy? Should potentially unauthorized images of children be nominated for speedy deletion? Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:14, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

• assuming consent will be uploaded. Charlesjsharp (talk) 13:14, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

•  Comment The author was contacted and will upload a letter of consent for all portraits. A general concern was raised regarding the vague policies and the lack of apparent mechanism that photographers should follow to upload their letters of consent, so there are questions on where the document should be deposited, what should be the language, should there be a signature and who will check its veracity? (To be frank, these things are unclear even for me as a long-time contributor, probably because I haven't been interested very much in portrait photography.)--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 11:01, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
