Sure MOS:IMAGERELEVANCE says "Images should look like what they are meant to illustrate, regardless of whether they are authentic." It doesn't have to match exactly. (diff)

But using a photo of Canadian curlers playing in a tournament in Italy is a pretty much big stretch. Imo there has to be a line of how much relevancy we had to take into account.

The same policy says

For example, a painting of a cupcake may be an acceptable image for Cupcake, but a real cupcake that has been decorated to look like something else entirely is less appropriate.

You would expect a cupcake article to have a photo of a typical cupcake and not a cupcake made to look like cheesecake or an ice cream cone. This is what's going on with insisting with the photo of the Canadian curlers.

If people want to learn what curling in general looks like, they can just click on the curling article.

To close. The same policy says:

However, not every article needs images, and too many can be distracting: usually, less is more.

If there's not appropriate image, imo better not include an image at all.

Its not just me. Earl Andrew also removed the image.
