I'll worry about it as and when they call.

I've just added an English description (that says Falkland Islands) as
well as the Spanish one (that says Islas Malvinas).

It's a stunning photo of a military cemetery, and no newspaper would
run a story without the picture - which will make it obvious that the
picture got a placing because it's a great picture.

If we can't position this one as an example of Wikipedia's neutrality,
we're just not trying.
