Well of course NFCC requires critical commentary for non free images but yes our image use policy does state that images should have relevance to the content in the article I copy pasted the policy it s not a guideline or an essay but policy Regardless of PD or CC license images need relevance to be used in the article for encyclopedic value Otherwise we would have the most obscure images in the wrong sections for no apparent reason which is what the issue is on United States Remember though that there are no rules here but in order to attempt a GA rating the images must comply with image use policy I didn t start the changes just to be a pain in the ass That just comes naturally I suppose but to begin preparing the article for a GA nomination which now will have to hold for at least a three or four days or until reverts stop
