The reason why her photo had not yet been uploaded to Commoms is rather simple. The staff that were going to do it (thank you for doing it) are attending the organization’s All Hands event. Getting the information out was our focus, and we will be updating other places early next week. I hope folks can appreciate our desire to focus on the event and immediate dissemination of information. :)
For what it is worth, we do make an effort to ourselves take and make available a freely licensed photo of board members. However, photo shoots are not always the best use of our in-person time with board members. We are looking into ways to expedite the process and do them outside in-person gatherings. I will pass the comment about page design to our design folks. Thank you for the feedback and I hope the above helps answer your questions. :) -greg _______________ Sent from my iPhone - a more detailed response may be sent later. > On Feb 1, 2019, at 9:10 AM, Andy Mabbett <a...@pigsonthewing.org.uk> wrote: > >> On Fri, 1 Feb 2019 at 13:58, María Sefidari <ma...@wikimedia.org> wrote: >> >> El vie., 1 feb. 2019 14:30, Andy Mabbett <a...@pigsonthewing.org.uk> >> escribió: > >>> Unfortunately we don't seem to have a free image of Lisa; the one used >>> on the Wikimedia blog is the same as her long-standing Twitter profile >>> image and, despite the footer on the WMF post about her appointment:, >>> which uses the image, saying >>> >>> >>> https://wikimediafoundation.org/2019/01/31/wikimedia-foundation-announces-lisa-lewin-as-new-trustee/ >>> >>> saying "Except where otherwise noted, the content of this site is >>> licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported >>> license.", there is no explicit indication that it has (nor indeed has >>> not) been released under an open licence. >>> >> >> I'm not sure I follow Andy - there is a Photo Credits section, did you see >> it? > > Thank you.
