[edit] Fair use rationale

[edit] Licensing

This image is from a comic strip, webcomic or from the cover or interior of a comic book. The copyright for this image is most likely owned by either the publisher of the comic or the writer(s) and/or artist(s) which produced the comic in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of the cover of a comic book to illustrate: the issue of the comic book in question; the periodical comic book series of which this issue is a part; or the copyrighted comic book character(s) or group(s) on the cover of the issue in question; or the use of low-resolution images of a single panel from a comic strip or an interior page of a comic book to illustrate: the scene or storyline depicted, or the copyrighted character(s) or group(s) depicted on the excerpted panel in question; where no free alternative exists or can be created, 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:Non-free content and Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics/copyright for more information. To the uploader: please add a fair use rationale as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Eddie Campbell

[edit] Additional rationale for Eddie Campbell

Based on our fair use policy and US law, I, Hiding T , believe this image can be used in accordance with both because:

The image is partially a self-portrait of Campbell, as well as a cover to his work. It thus not only illustrates his appearance, but also his artistic style, his oeuvre and his reason for notability, that of being an artist. I do not think a similar image can be freely and easily sourced that would provide substantially the same information. The key word here is substantial. Whilst the use to illustrate his appearance may be replaced, we would still need an image to illustrate Campbell's art style and oeuvre, and it seems redundant to delete this image and later add another fair use image to the article, when using this image in four uses makes it's fair use claim stronger than other images used for only one or two purposes.

Alec: The King Canute Crowd by Eddie Campbell

This image is of a book cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover or the publisher of the book. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of book covers to illustrate an article discussing the book 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. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. Please include in your fair use rationale details of the particular edition (publisher, market & year of publication) of the edition you have used, and also acknowledge any cover artist if such artist is acknowledged in that edition's frontmatter. If the book cover is in the public domain (see Wikipedia:Public domain), then use the appropriate public domain tag rather than this one.
