Is there a way to add more information to an illustration, for example?
I found this illustration in Logos...
There is a dramatic story concerning the life and influence of King George V. In the latter years of his reign, it was his custom to broadcast a Christmas message to the empire. During one of these broadcasts, when the ears of the world were waiting to hear the voice of the king, an engineer observed that an important wire had snapped. America was cut off! Time was of the essence. Suddenly, as though nudged by an angel, a mechanic seized the broken wires. Holding one in each hand, he was thus able to complete the circuit which permitted the royal message to be transmitted to the United States. The voice of the king passed through the body of the engineer.
In the broken connections of our world, how can the Word of the Lord be heard unless it passes through the preacher?

So I did some research and found the actual news clip from the New York Times in 1930 where this is reported. There is more context and information that can add to the accuracy of the illustration. Is there a way to attach information like this so that other people can see it in the future?

There is/was the Community Notes feature, but that is in the process of going away, since almost no one seemed to use it. This would be exactly the sort of case to be made for keeping it. I never used it myself, though, so I won't miss it.
The best you can do under the circumstances is attach a Note for your own use.

I found that the Illustration comes from 1000 Illustrations for Preaching & Teaching* (G Curtis Jones), where it is a Popular Highlight.
Where did you find it in Logos?
* The link will open in Logos if you allow it (and have the book).

The Notebook of such notes can be shared and can be a collaborative effort.
