Summary

Description
English: Sikh visitors from India in Adelaide, Australia, 1922.

This picture shows Sikhs in Adelaide, South Australia in 1922. Interestingly, this picture shows a Sikh woman and a child as well as a Sikh man (far-right) wearing his medals. The first is the British War Medal, next is the Victory Medal, then the India General Service Medal. This man perhaps served on the Northwest Frontier of British India. The woman is wearing a ghagra.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.
