[edit] Fair use for Dakota Fanning

The image Image:WotW_pub.jpg is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright, I (RadioKirk (u|t|c) 18:30, 20 January 2007 (UTC)) believe its use is supported by Wikipedia policy and US fair use laws because:

It is a low-resolution publicity still from a motion picture or accompanying material that is presented solely for informational purposes;
No free or public domain images have been located for this purpose—while such images may exist for the subject of the article, none can be created that adequately illustrates the point(s) in the subject's career that (is/are) discussed in the accompanying text;
Use of the image directly highlights the aforenoted text—specifically, a quote from War of the Worlds Director Steven Spielberg;
Use of the image does not limit the copyright holders' ability to market the motion picture or any home video in any way; and
Use of the image is not believed to detract from the subject or her work in any way.

[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.
