48 PHOTOGRAPHS
Credits
Every image on this site, who took it, and what it was licensed under. None of it was hotlinked: each file was resolved once through the Wikimedia Commons API or the Flickr public feed, cached here, and credited to the person who made it.
Where a photograph is of the subject matter rather than of the specific event in the story, it is marked ILLUSTRATION and captioned with what is actually in the frame. A photo of a stadium is never captioned as the night the thing happened. That distinction is the difference between a publication and a scraper, and it is the one place a licence claim has to be true.

A mobile phone showing a message. Generic, and captioned as exactly that.

Janette Steer as Galatea in Pygmalion and Galatea, as wax. The sculptor whose assistant caught fire is the historical case the myth was built from.

A marble sculpture. Not Pygmalion, and captioned as such - the lane's own image carries the Pygmalion case.

A forum thread. The entry is about a glimpse being mistaken for access, which is what a forum thread is.

The Austrian Constitutional Court. A real courtroom, standing in for a litigation that did not happen there - captioned as a courtroom and not as the hearing.

A Reptar toy. The NEST letter is about wanting proof that a toy shop is real, so a photograph of the toy is closer to the episode than a screenshot would have been.

A woman adjusting a vintage television set. Third attempt: the first was a photograph of Saturn captioned as 'a screen, and the person watching it', the second a film-festival award badge. Both passed the must-term test. The caption had been written before the picture was chosen, which is the failure this review exists to catch.

A hand holding a smartphone, lit by its own screen. Re-fetched twice - the first attempt came back as a map of Belarus and the second as a cropped chatbot reply.

A climate protest in Washington DC, 2015. Re-fetched: the previous one was a pilgrimage site in the Philippines captioned as a public argument, which is the same class of error in the other direction.
