== Can I use this image in Wikipedia? + cropping existing pics Q ==

Referring to [https://combatantisemitism.org/cam-news/gunfire-targets-toronto-synagogue-in-suspected-antisemitic-attack/?utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_fURjzLW2Mv3tvIyfswmTVeV_G2TqgzfKnaezNxkW8Wui9daQdNh34ZYBjgd5KJpzX099mzO2NMFkBw6BFCoxPf3dbIzN1WzaMhYkKELfHw7bclA0&_hsmi=2&utm_content=2&utm_source=hs_email this one] (with the gunshot)? It says "Photo credit: social media", so I'm not sure...

Also, if I find an image of several people on commons, can I crop it so that it only includes one individual (I want to add it to this individual's article)? If so, how do I do it (technically speaking...)?

:The answer to your first questions is: No. For guidance on how and when we can use other people's images, see [[:c:COM:THIRD]]. <span class="vcard"><span class="fn">[[User:Pigsonthewing|Andy Mabbett]]</span> (<span class="nickname">Pigsonthewing</span>); [[User talk:Pigsonthewing|Talk to Andy]]; [[Special:Contributions/Pigsonthewing|Andy's edits]]</span> 11:45, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
:@[[User:ScottyNolan|ScottyNolan]] Copyright is complicated, so I'm not going to speculate on your first question, which would be better asked at [[c:Commons:Village_pump/Copyright]]. There is a good tool on Commons for cropping images: see [[c:Commons:CropTool]]. It automatically deals with the licensing. All Commons images allow so-called "derivatives", unlike some more restrictive licenses. [[User:Michael D. Turnbull|Mike Turnbull]] ([[User talk:Michael D. Turnbull|talk]]) 11:46, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
