[edit] Fair Use Rationale for James T. Kirk

1. There exists no free alternative, nor can one be created. James T. Kirk is a fictional character, all images of him are necessarily copyrighted.

3. The image represents a minimal use - it is a cropped screenshot - less than a single frame from a film. It is of a reasonable low resolution.
4. The image has been previously published, in the broadcasted, as well as sold on DVD.
5. The image is of a major character from a culturally significant series of television shows and movies. It is encyclopedic.
6. The image generally meets the image use policy.
7. The image is used in at least one article, James T. Kirk.
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 is from http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/James_T._Kirk and the copyright is owned by Paramount Pictures.
