Racial implications of "fair-skinned" in photo caption[edit]

I've been avoiding the use of "fair" in terms of describing skintone because of its history connotating that lighter skin is more beautiful and more melanized skin is undesirable.

I'm still very inexperienced with editing pages here. There are a lot of interacting elements in editing Wikimedia project pages, especially I imagine on this element which looks like a Wikimedia element hosted on a Wikipedia page.

I'm hoping to get assistance with links to references specifically relevant to this situation. I propose substituting "pale" or "very light" for the word "fair" in the photo caption on this page.

Chances are, the caption comes from the wikipedia item page. If so, I'll post a copy of this talk item topic there as well.
