Motivation edit
Unsplash is a popular repository of non-free images (but with many rights granted to anyone wanting to use images). Numerous organisations/brands maintain an official presence on Unsplash for purposes including publishing brand and product marketing photos. Numerous notable individuals will also have Unsplash accounts which can be linked to the Wikidata item for the individual. Dhx1 (talk) 14:21, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
Discussion edit
