It was as difficult to replace Sergei Burunov’s picture in Wikipedia as getting out of the Cursed Island

Even Ivan Urgant could not cope

On January 28, the issue of "Evening Urgant" with Sergey Burunov was released. The host not only discussed with the actor student parties and the program “Fort Boyard”, but also made Burunov a photo specifically for his page in Wikipedia.

What did it take for? It's simple! Prior to this, on the actor’s page there was a screenshot from the old video. According to Urgant, this is not the best choice for the situation if Leonardo DiCaprio wants to see who duplicates him in Russia.

Burunov and Urgant took several pictures, including repeated the legendary personnel-memes from the “Cursed Island” and “Great Gatsby” , as well as the picture of Annie Leibovitz with young DiCaprio and Lebed.

On February 1, Burunov’s photo on Wikipedia was replaced by one of the pictures from the “evening Urgant”. But something went wrong, and after half an hour the old picture returned. In the commentary of Gazeta.Ru , the editor of the encyclopedia, Evgeny Lazarev, explained what was the matter. According to him, the old photo was returned to the article, since the copyrights for a new picture still belong to Ivan Urgant.

“Just say, even on television, that the photograph is made for Wikipedia does not have any legal meaning. And then, the photographer, in this case, apparently, Ivan Urgant, can file a lawsuit against Wikipedia. In this case, not very experienced participants, after the program, rushed to upload photos and think what they said, then they were allowed, ”said Lazarev.

But the fans of Sergei Burunov have the hope that the fresh photo will return - for this, the author should allow the use of a free license.
