[edit] Summary

Non-free / fair use media rationale - non-free logo for Studio Disney UK
Description

This is a logo for Studio Disney UK.
Source

The logo is from the http://brandsoftheworld.com/brands/?id=83497 website.
Article

Studio Disney UK
Portion used

The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.
Low resolution?

The logo is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.
Purpose of use

The image is used to identify the brand Studio Disney UK, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the brand, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the brand, and illustrate the nature of the brand in a way that words alone could not convey.
Replaceable?

Because it is a logo there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
Other information Use of the logo in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy, logo guidelines, and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.

This fair use media rationale also applies to the articles for all the Disney Channel branches around the world outside the USA:

Other information

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

  • The logo has not been used since 2003.
  • The image is itself a subject of discussion in the Disney Channel (UK) article.
  • The image is not used for commercial purposes, nor does it affect Disney's ability to use it.
  • As little non-free content as possible has been used.
  • It contributes significantly to the Disney Channel (UK) article by identifying the previous branding of the channel, which provides an immediate relevance to the reader more capably than the textual description alone.
  • It is only used on articles related to Disney Channel, not templates or user pages.
