True Flo, but if they are important and notable within
Nigeria, then
that would allow for some weight behind them being notable to the
community …? If they are just minor Nigerian celebrities, then not.

Hey Zack,
Thanks for the clarity … that completely makes sense - I don’t think
that anyone has a problem with them being paid to do an excellent
job (at least, I don’t) - I was just wondering about the licensing
on their release of the video. Perhaps you could ask them to change
it, unless it is not what they agreed to? And if they are claiming
the video, they should mention that they were commissioned by the
Wikimedia Foundation or whoever to do it. That would tick all the
attribution boxes, and keep with the licensing, yes?
With regards to whether that makes them notable enough to have a
Wikipedia article, then that is for the Nigerian community to
decide. But it should be because they are notable in their own
right, and not because they did a Wikipedia video.
One correction. It is not for the Nigerian community to decide. It is
for the Wikipedia community to do so.
