I suppose it depends on whether you include the acute accent and whether
you include the phrase within quotes.

I don't want to delete them - I just don't want them to put us in trouble.
And the problem isn't really about Pokémon, that's just a good
illustration of it.

Yes, this is the problem. It's a complete accident that it comes out as a
gallery. But it still does. An accidental copyright violation is still a
copyright violation. And even though it's intended for management it's
still easily accessible to the general reader (and Google searcher).
