Celebes crested macaque selfie[change source]

It's been reinserted twice, but I really seen no justification for inserting info about a copyright dispute into an article about a genus of animals. There are 22 species involved here, and one individual from a species managed to snap a photo that led to certain media coverage. Even in a full-fledged article, this is completely out of proportion, especially in an article written in Simple English.

On the contrary, this is a perfectly appropriate illustration. One of its main merits is its quality. We depend here entirely on illustrations from Commons, and this is the best as a photograph. The others are poor quality by comparison. Your opinions on the media coverage are irrelevant; I'm sure our readers are interested. As to other species, so what? The taxobox does show another species. Macdonald-ross (talk) 10:32, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
