The photo is nearly ten years old, and not representative (I am Jordan Tannahill, the subject of the article). 173.77.205.167 (talk) 16:37, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Aha. I'm afraid we strongly discourage people from editing articles about themselves, that is described at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. We would be glad to replace the image with a more recent image, but we need an image that has been released so that anyone can freely reuse and edit it, like the rest of the Wikipedia. By default, an image is copyrighted and can't be freely reused and edited unless the photographer releases it, so we can't just grab any image off the Internet.
The easiest way for you to do that is to put an image you own the copyright to (one you took, i.e., a selfie, or one the photographer explicitly gave you the copyright to) up on a website you are known to own with a
. You should also ask me, or any other editor without a conflict of interest, to make any other changes you want made to the article about you, since, again, as in that first link above, you probably shouldn't do it yourself. That first link goes into details.
For the meanwhile, though, I'm afraid I'll be restoring the image to the article, as even if it is nearly ten years old, it is a much better picture of you than no picture at all. --GRuban (talk) 14:39, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
