Asking if it's necessary, and kind of curious what other people think?
I know that the other way we can publish to FB is like with Katherine's photos- when a WMF staffer takes them, then WMF has a copyright to the images and then has the right to share with FB
Also several months ago there was a story that estimated commons to be worth several hundred million dollars just due to the PD images on it. Some point after that Flickr added tagging provisions for public domain.

Yeah, my understanding of the definition is essentially that with the definition of actress being 'a female actor' etc. It's one of the places where we created a female gendered noun but never an exclusive male one.

Let's use actor. Her gender identity is clear from the pronouns.
