That's not a guarantee. You'd need to consider each one.

Is great to see another load of historical images potentially on their way
to Commons, but in the case of Indigenous Australians, they risk not only
offending custom but reinforcing stereotypes - because imagery on Commons
relating to Indigenous Australians is almost unanimously historical, with
almost nothing representing the range of contemporary life. We need to do
more to boost the stock of contemporary images... I know the ABC is asleep,
and their archives woefully managed when it cons to copyright. Doors anyone
know about SBS?
