::::I agree also that an image made on zero reliable data should be added to an article, especially a modern image not from any notable person. If so, anyone can sketch an image and post it on wikipedia. The page must revert the before the addition was made. And no one but the poster sees this image as acceptable. Continual reverts will be reported, see [[Wikipedia:Edit warring|edit war]] [[User:Danial Bass|Danial Bass]] ([[User talk:Danial Bass|talk]]) 22:04, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
:::::Read my explanation above. Sketches are accepted on Wikipedia. It can be from any artist. The most important thing here is the correctness or otherwise of the depiction. [[User:Nigerianhistorian|Nigerianhistorian]] ([[User talk:Nigerianhistorian|talk]]) 22:34, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
::::::That image is not a sketch and it is not correct. It does not even count as a depiction as it has no connection in likeness or environment to Usman dan Fodio. Putting the greenery aside, there are many other questions: Which mountain range is in the background? What type of horse is it? What saddle is being used? What clothing is being worn? These are questions that an actual artist could answer as they would have done research to confirm historical accuracy, but here there is no explanation.
