What & why

Ran the existing Wikipedia image backfill tool (app/verify/wikipedia_image_backfill.py) against every smartphone record that cites a Wikipedia article and still lacks image_url.

Of 432 eligible records, only 7 had a freely licensed, model-matching Commons photo in their article's infobox:

Device License
HTC Butterfly CC-BY-SA-3.0
Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0 (3 variants) CC-BY-SA-3.0
Samsung Galaxy A57 5G CC-BY-SA-4.0
Toshiba/Fujitsu Windows Phone IS12T CC-BY-SA-4.0
Vivo Y31d CC0-1.0

The rest were rejected by the tool's existing filters: logo/promo/group images, non-free licenses, or no infobox image at all — nothing was guessed or force-matched.

Closes #296

Last commit is the static dump refresh (7 pages changed, matching the 7 records — confirms the dump stayed deterministic).
