[edit] Summary

Non-free / fair use media rationale - non-free logo for Chinese Democracy Tour
Description

This is a logo for Chinese Democracy Tour.

Source

The logo may be obtained from Chinese Democracy Tour.

Article

Chinese Democracy Tour

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 Chinese Democracy Tour, a notable product or service. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the product or service, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about that product or service, and illustrate branding associations of the product or service 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.

Guns N' Roses logo. Used from 2000-2005.

[edit] Rationale of fair-use on Guns N' Roses and other related articles

  1. No free or public domain images have been located for this logo.
  2. The image is of lower resolution than the original logo.
  3. The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute their products in any way.
  4. For an article about a band, their logo is very important and adds significantly to the article, as it identifies them.
  5. The image is of lower resolution than the original logo. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, and could not be used as artwork on illegal merchandise.
  6. This image is used on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible than it already is.
  7. The logo is being used for informational purposes only.
