[edit] Summary

A screenshot of Taylor Swift in the music video for her single "Teardrops On My Guitar" (2006). The copyright of the image and the music video is owned by Big Machine Records. Image taken from a computer programme.

[edit] Rationale of fair use for Taylor Swift

1. The image is a screenshot from a promotional music video originally created by Big Machine Records, and intended for wide distribution.
2. The screenshot is of lower resolution and quality than the original video (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
3. No free or public domain images have been located for this single.
4. The music video is featured on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible.
5. No free or public domain images have been located for the music video. While a public domain image has been located for the subject of the article, it does not adequately illustrate major points in the subject's life that are discussed in the article.
6. The screenshot is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original single or music video in any way.

[edit] Licensing

This image is a screenshot from a copyrighted music video or promotional video for a music artist, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by the producers of the video and possibly also by the music artist. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots

• for identification and critical commentary on the music video in question
• 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. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use.

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.
