In commons:Commons:Deletion_requests/Files_in_Category:Alan_Turing, it is established that the author of both photos is either William Matthew Chaffin Jr (1861-1937) or Arthur Reginald Chaffin (1893-1954). Copyright term for both the US and UK lasts for the life of the author + 70 years. So both photos became public domain on 1937 + 71 = 2008 or will become public domain on 1954 + 71 = 2025. Thus, the copyright for the two photos will certainly expire on 2025.
I apologize for not having contacted the archivist, as I promised before, in a timely manner. I should have done that a lot sooner and not put it off for such a long time. I have finally contacted the archivist and they provided an email with useful information about the copyright of the two photos. The email is posted with permission in the deletion request link above. FunnyMath (talk) 15:26, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
2023 Chia Seed Study
I've added information about study "Abstract: F46.00003 : Studying Turing patterns in vegetation." As this study is fairly recent, I have not been able to locate the official scientific journal. Feel free to ping me if my addition doesn't follow scientific journal guidelines & I'll be more than happy to remove, adding again once the official report is made accessible.

Not the point. Chemical castration, which was mentioned but not linked, is clearly the more relevant term and article, and well-referenced in relation to Turing. Sterilising him was not at all the aim. Johnbod (talk) 15:58, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's definitely not a "common sense conclusion" that the intent was to prevent homosexuals from reproducing, and I don't think it's true. My understanding was that the intention was to prevent them from engaging in homosexual behavior. Conceivably the fact that it also made it harder for them to father children was a secondary motive, but that would definitely need to be cited. --Trovatore (talk) 20:22, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Why does it require that specific intent?
The page specifies that the rationalization is independent from the concept, there are a lot of rationalisations that were used.
If my government forcibly sterilize someone because a priest has said god judged them, that's still Compulsory sterilization, even if that specific rationalisation wasn't mentioned on the wikipedia page.
You specifically claimed that it was the intent. You said "[s]terilizing homosexuals was, is that not relevant?". You have not even shown that "chemical castration" results in sterilization. --Trovatore (talk) 20:32, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have to proof the sky is blue.
Is there a case where chemical castration by coercive government force is not a subset of sterilization by coercive government force?
Castration (removal of the testicles) of course does cause sterilization, because there are no more sperm. That's obvious. "Chemical castration" is not castration, so it is not obvious that it results in sterilization. --Trovatore (talk) 20:50, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Chemical castration does mention compulsory sterilization, it mentions criminals being able to select it to lower their assigned punishment. Bart Terpstra (talk) 16:55, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I added a precisely relevant link, which was already referenced, to an article on exactly what was done to Turing, and where the article already mentions Turing. You had added an unreferenced OR link to an article that doesn't even mention the UK, never mind Turing. Enough! Johnbod (talk) 18:29, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Johnbod Note related edit Special:Diff/1163828782. This appear to fail WP:V, with the first sentence completely unsupported, no mention of his choice between prison and chemical castration, and no label of "compulsory sterilisation" or even his impotence in the provided source. I've opt'd not to revert at this time, but this discussion is spilling across the other two articles as well. Also for disclosure, note this editor has broached this topic in the WP:Discord space and that is how I ended up here, so I won't take action here in view of any canvas concern (or the reverse as the case might be). -- ferret (talk) 22:03, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
