Box cover art for Civilization IV. Source: [1]
This image is cover art for a computer or video game, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the game's publisher or developer. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of game cover art
- to illustrate the packaging of the game in question
- on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,
constitutes fair use under United States copyright law. Other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use 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.
[edit] Rationale
It is believed that the use of this image qualifies as fair use in the article Civilization IV because:
- Firaxis Games 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
