Image of the logo used by the Dead Moon Circus in the Sailor Moon anime series. Will be used to identify and illustrate that group. Created by Wikimedia Commons user Andy89.

Logo design was created by, and presumably copyrighted to, Naoko Takeuchi and Toei Animation.

[edit] Fair use for Dead Moon Circus

Although this is an originally-created image, the subject matter is a logo design created by Toei Animation. If it is covered by copyright, I, Masamage, feel it is also covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

• it is a user-made image of a logo that is never shown clearly enough anywhere else to be used here;
• it does not limit the copyright owners' rights to sell the wider copyrighted work in any way whatsoever;
• it provides an illustration of this logo in the series, and is to be used solely for this purpose.

[edit] Licensing

This work is copyrighted and unlicensed. It does not fall into one of the blanket acceptable non-free content categories listed at Wikipedia:Non-free content#Images or Wikipedia:Non-free content#Audio clips. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "Dead Moon Circus" : To illustrate the subject in question Where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information On the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation ([1]), 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:Copyrights. To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed non-free use rationale.

This image was licensed under GFDL by the creator over at Wikimedia Commons. It has been suggested for deletion over there due to the copyright issues involved with this being an extant logo.
