Photo of wrong person edit

The photo used on this page is not of Judith Young. I'm her child, so I'm entirely certain of this. Also happy to provide additional photos if needed, but there are many photos online of Judy connected to her pioneering archaeoastronomical work at the UMass Sunwheel that can provide reference as needed. 24.101.237.78 (talk) 12:13, 7 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Heya, thanks for highlighting this! I've removed the photo. Sourcing suitable photos is difficult as they need to meet Wikipedia's copyright policies (WP:IUPC), so if you have any photos that you took yourself or that you own the copyright to that would be really helpful! Let me know if you have any questions. — LittleDwangs (talk) 12:53, 7 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
@LittleDwangs: I've added a non-free image of Young to the article and requested that NOIRLab change the caption on their photo. They did and said they weren't sure who the unidentified astronomer is. gobonobo + c 09:54, 16 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
