[edit] Rationale for fair use in Man-lifting kite

It is believed that the use of the image Amundsen_kite.jpg in the article Man-lifting kite qualifies as fair use because:

  1. No free alternative exists or could be created.
  2. It is use purely to illustrate the subject discussed.
  3. Its copyright status is unknown - it is probably public domain.
  4. It is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality).
  5. It does not limit the rights of the copyright owner (if one exists) to market or sell the work in any way.
  6. This image is used on various websites without accreditation, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
  7. The image is being used in an informative way and should not detract from the original work.
