SPUI has repeatedly tagged

as a copyvio of

speedy it on that basis, so SPUI blanked it and added the copyvio
template. Sbekele self-identifies as Sophia Bekele, CEO of CBS
International, and therefore presumably the copyright owner. Since
this is user space, and the content is an "about us" bio, not
commercial content, I think that blanking and deletion are a bit
excessive. On the other hand, copyright is copyright I guess. What
does the panel think?
This uninformed panel member thinks that people have a general right
to upload photos of themselves to their user pages.
