In the opinion of a contributor, this media, currently under a non-free license, should be carefully reviewed to determine whether there is a more applicable free license that could be applied.
Additional reasoning as to potentially free status: Image might possibly be "PD-ineligible", given it only consisting of simple text and shapes (not to be confused with "PD-shapes" or "PD-textlogo").
This media should be carefully reviewed, an {{information}} block added if not present and if suitable the image should be transferred to Wikimedia Commons.

[edit | edit source]Screenshot of the game Poly Play
Fair use in Poly Play
[edit | edit source]Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
- VEB Polytechnik has released no such images into the public domain, and a replacement image could not be created that would adequately provide the same information.
- The image is being used for no purpose other than to identify the subject of the article.
- The image resolution has been significantly decreased from the original, so copies made from it would be of inferior quality.
- The use of this image neither detracts from the game nor inhibits its salability in any way.
