Nahshon Dion Anderson in Selected Picture list[edit]
In these edits, 70.23.215.46(talk·contribs·WHOIS) added an image of Nahshon Dion Anderson to the selected picture list. It's not a featured picture and the editor appears to be a SPA around Anderson. Would someone mind reviewing this to see if this makes sense here? There's only one other image on Commons and I don't think it's any better quality. Thanks.
