I would like to propose additions to the general disclaimer found in the footer of all Wikimedia sites.
Currently on Commons, there's a {{personality rights}} template that is applied to photos of living or recently deceased people to inform potential downloaders that this photo may not be entirely usable for them depending their intended use and whatever jurisdiction they happen to be living in.
This templates are applied inconsistently to images that probably should have them. Meanwhile, [[WP:NDA]] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:NDA specifically cautions against the use of disclaimers, one reason being that inconsistent use could potentially open us to legal exposure.
Note that we already have text about trademarks (at least in en-WP and Commons -- I haven't checked other sites).
Thus, I would like to see something about personality rights in images in the general disclaimer, rather than having to apply this template to each and every photo of a person to whom personality rights may apply.
Thoughts?
Thanks.
