JIDF posts image for Wikipedia Here s a situation I found intriguing The JIDF blog specifically posted an image to put on this Wikipedia article The heading currently reads Better Sample of the Groups We Target For Wikipedia This strikes me as problematic At the very least it gives the appearance of Wikipedia coordinating with JIDF to promote JIDF or cooperating with JIDF s self promotion From what I can tell our image is downloaded from the blog image by Einsteindonut 8 22 08 I m sorry if you ve already come to consensus about the inclusion of the image in the article but I did want to mention this interesting nuance Best wishes Talk I don t like the way the JIDF is manipulating this article posting messages for Wikipedia that are then being used as sources I wish there was some way to put an end to it but I think a blog is a WP RS for what it says about the organization that sponsors it Malik Shabazz talk contribs Hm That s interesting The JIDF is only marginally notable only two major press citations have been found and being in Wikipedia increases the visibility of the organization Wikipedia usually doesn t display web site screen shots Usually an article gets a logo if that Also we have a third party cartoon in that image without copyright clearance Maybe we should drop that image It looks like the JIDF doesn t want to be on Wikipedia after all Malik Shabazz talk contribs At this juncture Malik their opinion about whether to be on Wikipedia strikes me as irrelevant I m assuming that WP BLP does not apply to organizations right However if the screenshot is unusual for an article of this size then I d be interested in hearing the pro s and con s for keeping the image Aside from the promotional concern I ve floated above Tx Talk I think there may be copyright problems because for example the Hamas logo is subject to copyright I ve brought the question up at Wikipedia Copyright problems Malik Shabazz talk contribs The Anti Defamation League AIPAC and CAMERA Wikipedia pages don t have screenshots They don t even have pictures other than the logo and those are organizations with physical offices known officers and big real world events The page for Facebook has a picture of Facebook HQ although amusingly that picture is actually of the Japanese restaurant that occupies the ground floor and a screen shot of the home login page Miniclip has a screen shot of their huge home page in their info box LinkedIn just has a logo Myspace has a logo and a picture of the headquarters building None of these Wikipedia pages have screenshots of interior web site pages Wikipedia doesn t usually do that But John this image serves a different function It displays the Facebook groups that were the target of JIDF activities So it seems directly related to the notable aspect of the group s activity Is it relevant that the screenshot is taken from the JIDF Facebook page or blog sites After all it could as well be an independent screenshot of the targeted group without JIDF as the source See what I mean Talk Just to clarify there was already a sample up I read the blog and they made a point saying that the original sample only showed anti semitic groups and not the terrorist groups and I wanted to learn how to add an image so I replaced it I don t care if there s a photo up or not but I do feel if there s going to be one that it should be the most accurate
