| Article | |
| Portion used |
Full; the full image is used in order to convey its full meaning and in order to avoid misrepresenting the purpose of the original owner. |
| Low resolution? |
Yes; the image has been reduced significantly in size and resolution from the original (reduced to 25% of its original size using Microsoft Paint). |
| Purpose of use |
For use in the infobox of the Wikipedia article about the band, to provide visual identification of the subject of the article. Use in this fashion is believed to pass Wikipedia's non-free content criteria, as it significantly increases a reader's understanding of the topic and its absence would be detrimental to that understanding. |
| Replaceable? |
No; as the band has been inactive since 1995, no new free image of them can be created that would be a suitable substitute. Should a free image of the band be found, it should be used to replace this non-free image. |

Licensing
[edit | edit source]
The copyright for it is most likely owned by the company who created the promotional item or the artist who produced the item in question; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion.
It is believed that the use of some images of promotional material to illustrate:
- the person(s), product, event, or subject in question;
- where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it;
- on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation;
qualifies as fair use under Copyright law of the United States. Any other usage of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Publicity photos.
Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license.
Please note that our policy usually considers fair use images of living people that merely show what they look like to be replaceable by free-licensed images and unsuitable for the project. If this is not the case for this image, a rationale must be provided proving that the image provides information beyond simple identification or showing that this image is difficult to replace by a free-licensed equivalent. Commercial third-party reusers of this image should consider whether their use is in violation of the subject's publicity rights.
