In  which  case, those people  should have the decency  to  not  present  
themselves anywhere where a photo shoot or video  recording is very likely to 
take place. Or  politely  take space at  the back  of the room and wear a face 
mask. Personally, I  don’t  see why  anyone should be embarrassed at  being  
part of a benevolent movement such  as  Wikipedia - have they  something  
disastrous to  hide? In  which  case, perhaps they  better not  go  to  
Wikimania at  all,  and if they  are scholarship  recipients, give their place 
over to  someone else.
