# Talk:Mike Tyson's tattoos

Some things that came up while working on this:

Are Tyson's tattoos, as a group, notable?
Some sources discuss them all as a group; see Inked 2020 and Roche 2020. Admittedly, most don't. Tyson's face tattoo clearly passes WP:GNG, with significant coverage in academic and news media sources. There's definitely enough coverage of the portrait tattoos that they should be covered somewhere per WP:DUE, and alongside the face tattoo seems a more logical place than Tyson's biography. So the rest is just a matter of scoping, not notability.
Speaking of scoping, should this be merged into the main Tyson article and the Hangover Part II article?
This is, as of its writing, the only article on Wikipedia about an individual tattoo or set of tattoos, so this is a fair question. However, I think it should be clear from reading it that it contains well-sourced, DUE encyclopedic content that would not fit well in other articles.
What's the copyright status of the image of Tyson's face?
See discussion at Template:Did you know nominations/Mike Tyson's tattoos.
How much weight is due regarding Tyson's rape conviction?
Exactly one clause, linking to the relevant section in his article, in my opinion. Most sources mention what he was in prison for: the rape of Desiree Washington. Most sources (other than broader biographical works) go into no more detail than that. So it seems DUE to say what he was convicted of and leave it at that.
