[edit] Fair use rationale for Seventh Doctor, Sylvester McCoy and History of Doctor Who

This image, Mccoys.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is copyright © to the BBC, I (Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 01:21, 28 February 2007 (UTC)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use law because:

  1. The image is a low-resolution copy of a publicity photograph;
  2. The image is being used for informational purposes about the character of the Seventh Doctor as played by Sylvester McCoy in the television series Doctor Who;
  3. No more free alternative exists or can exist;
  4. The use of the image in this article will have no effect on the BBC's commercial use of the image in question.

[edit] Licensing

Publicity still:

Copyrighted

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.
