List of facial hairstyles

Hi again User:Mabalu, since you helped a great deal a while back on list of facial hairstyles, this website [1] has coloured images and maybe a better image for goatpatch of Robert Pires, if it's close-up and clear enough. A good example of mutton chops is in the film X-Men Origins: Wolverine, because I think Guy Martin's class as sideburns.

Hello Theo Mandela. I don't see copyright clearances on that website although they have obviously taken many of the images from Commons. The Robert Pires picture is fine, but his goatpatch is kind of half-lost in his stubble. You might remember that you wouldn't approve some of my past picture suggestions for similar reasoning...

Yeah User:Mabalu, I recognized pretty much all of those pictures from the Wikipedia list, a lot of them we added. If you can think of anything else that the article needs work let me know please 👍--Theo Mandela (talk) 11:35, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

An idea

Hi User:Mabalu, about list of facial hairstyles, I've just found out the stubble picture is of a Wikipedia user, which gave me an idea. Could you ask users to grow the styles we don't have good images for (Fu Manchu, Zappa, etc.) and upload images (only of the beard itself) to Commons?--Theo Mandela (talk) 03:20, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

You could request them yourself? Mabalu (talk) 09:31, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

But where do I ask them? Do you know of any users who's posted pictures of themselves who would do this? If so, they'd rather you ask them than me.--Theo Mandela (talk) 15:48, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

See the link in my previous comment. I don't know of any indvidual users who might be able to help. Mabalu (talk) 16:33, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
