Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. For more information, see Wikipedia:Non-free content.

[edit] Fair Use Rationale for Nick Stokes

1. There exists no free alternative, nor can one be created. Nick Stokes is a fictional character, all images of him are necessarily copyrighted.
2. This image respects commercial opportunities - a cropped screenshot cannot meaningfully compete with an entire television episode.
3. The image represents a minimal use - it is a cropped screenshot - less than a single frame from an episode that has over 50 000 frames. It is of a reasonable low resolution.
4. The image has been previously published, in the broadcasted, as well as sold on DVD CSI: Crime Scene Investigation
5. The image is of a major character from a culturally significant series of television shows. It is encyclopedic.
6. The image generally meets the image use policy.
7. The image is used in at least one article, Nick Stokes.
8. The image contributes strongly to the article. As a fictional character, the subject is more easily visualised.
9. The image is used only in the article namespace.
10. The image was uploaded by Yamanbaiia, taken from CSI: The Complete Sixth Season DVD set using the VLC media player
