[edit] Fair use rationale for Paul McGann

This image, Eighth Doctor Publicity.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is copyright © to the BBC, I (Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 00:27, 14 August 2006 (UTC)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use law because:

The image is a low-resolution copy of a publicity photograph;
The image is being used for informational purposes about Paul McGann in the role of the Doctor in the 1996 Doctor Who television movie;
No more free alternative exists;
The use of the image in these articles will have no effect on the BBC's commercial use of the image in question.

[edit] Licensing

This is a copyrighted image that has been released by a company or organization to promote their work or product in the media, such as advertising material or a promotional photo in a press kit.

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 low-resolution images of promotional material

to illustrate the work or product being discussed;
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 United States copyright law. Other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Copyrights for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Image description page, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
