Women in Cairo wearing face masks (under the March section) proposed alteration

Hey! The mask worn by one of the people in this picture is not fitted correctly and can give off the wrong impression to people who see it, is it ok if i add to the descriptive text “Mask fit pictured may give off wrong impression, ensure it fits snugly with no gaps” to the descriptive text? Thank you so much! LightTomcat99 (talk) 23:44, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
