Dear Mjb1981,
Thank you for contributing to Wiki Loves Monuments 2020, and for sharing your pictures with the whole world! We would like to ask again for a few minutes of your time. Thanks to the participation of people like you, the contest gathered more than 200K+ pictures of cultural heritage objects from more than 50 countries around the world.
You can find all your pictures in your upload log, and are of course very welcome to keep uploading images and help develop Wikimedia Commons, even though you will not be able to win more prizes (just yet). To make future contests even more successful than this year, we would like to invite you to share your experiences with us in a short survey.
Please fill in this short survey and help us learn what you liked and didn't like about Wiki Loves Monuments 2020.
Kind regards,

- My logic for this being used correctly is as follows:
- This image has been published by the Parliament website. https://members-api.parliament.uk/api/Members/5267/Thumbnail
- As it is not a picture of the parliamentary chamber, it should therefore be covered by the Open Parliament Licence.
- Other parliamentary portraits on Wikimedia Commons are licensed in the same way.
- I based the copyright information for this image on the similar image File:Official portrait of Sir Graham Brady MP.jpg, which comes from the same source (specifically https://members-api.parliament.uk/api/Members/435/Portrait).
- I don't think my logic is flawed, but if it is then I don't object to this being deleted.

- I've replied already, but basically:
a) Just because it's published on the Parliament website doesn't mean that copyright is automatically owned by them, especially since it seems to be a placeholder, see w:Jack Abbott (politician) (Parliament and photo origin) or w:Callum Anderson (Parliament and photo origin).
b) Parliament portrait photographs are specifically licensed to be CC BY 3.0 and not under OPL.
c) The "other parliamentary portraits" are actual parliamentary portraits, not something like this photo or the photos for Anderson or Abbott. reppoptalk 22:41, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
