The Graphics Lab is a project to improve the graphical content of the Wikimedia projects. Requests for image improvements can be added to the workshop pages: Illustrations, Photographs and Maps. For questions or suggestions one can use the talk pages: Talk:Graphics Lab, Talk:Illustrations, Talk:Photographs and Talk:Maps.
This specific page is the requests page for the photography workshop. Anyone can make a request for a photograph to be improved for a Wikipedia article. The standard format for making a request is shown below, along with general advice, and should be followed.

Advice to requesters

All requests:

Please make sure your request is "legitimate" by copyright. If the image(s) are in the public domain or freely licensed, you are fine. If the image(s) are "Fair use", there are only certain things we can do with them without falling afoul of Wikipedia's fair-use policies.
- If you are requesting assistance with a copyright or fair-use image, don't display it on this page; place {{GLNF|Example.png|caption|align=left}} to create a link to it. Do not add the File: extension. Our fair-use policy does not allow displaying fair-use images out of their articles on ANY account.
Please check back regularly to see if progress has been made or if any additional questions need to be answered before the request can be completed.
If a request is done to your satisfaction, please mark it with {{resolved}}.

SVG requests:

Make sure your request can actually BE vectorized. Note that vector drawings are not suitable for certain applications. We generally use SVG format for icons, logos, drawings, maps, flags, and such. Certain things, photographs especially, are totally impossible to vectorize.
Per our non-free content policy, vectorization of copyrighted images is not permitted. If a vectorized non-free image is desired, seek out such an image from the copyright holder.

Article(s): Arlene Blum; [[]]
Request: Details of your request go here... --

I took this analog photo of Arlene Blum way back in 1977. It is a great photo of her unusual blouse but her hair is lost in the dark background, and her face looks dark. I am wondering if anyone here can improve my ancient photo. Cullen328 (talk) 09:02, 11 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Cullen328:

Done I tried, but I can't improve more. PawełMM (talk) 12:23, 11 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Cullen328: If you still have it, in the original print or negative, can you see a difference between the background and her hair? If so, try and make a better scan of it. This has her hair and background at the same total black value and it's not possible to recover. (Hohum ^@) 01:42, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hohum, I probably still have the print but I moved in 2021 and thousands of prints are boxed up in a somewhat disorganized way in my garage. If I find the print, I will take a closer look and get back to you. Cullen328 (talk) 01:56, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Request: Hi, I was wondering if someone can kindly please upload cropped versions of this photo of Mario Maek and some other soccer players so they can all go on their respective pages? The main person needing a photo is Mario Maek. While Maek has a page on four different Wikipedia versions, there are four other soccer players André Sirocks, Steffen Enge, Ulf-Volker Probst and Peter Schoknecht that all need cropped photos but only have have pages on the German version. Where the soccer players are in the photo are listed below the image. If you need some help, don't be afraid to ask. Thanks in advance! -- 109.78.223.88 (talk) 18:45, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
