License tagging for File:ColleenVillard2021.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:ColleenVillard2021.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 22:31, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

Furthermore, what you've done is akin to vandalism and is definitely edit warring. WP:3RR You repeatedly destroyed multiple articles by deleting the subject's image, here and here. You did several edit wars each time, and you did them from IP addresses which could be seen as a WP:SOCKPUPPET. Users can be blocked for any of these things. Wikipedia does not belong to you or to its article subjects, Wikipedia doesn't do favors for celebrities, and laws exist. We can only upload images that have a provable, verifiable, free legal license or else we put the organization into legal jeopardy. You've also made a lot of editing errors and policy violations like adding WP:FANCRUFT and citing WP:TWITTER but for WP:TRIVIA and not as a WP:RS. — Smuckola(talk) 00:45, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

It's uncivilized to use those current images of Mike and Colleen regardless if they're "celebrities". It's decent enough to find another legal free image of themselves such Mike's head shot from 2010 or the recent one Colleen has taking. Various sites like BTVA have used those images without getting into legal trouble or opposition from the actors. That said, I leave well enough alone and not make a mess of things going forward.
