[edit] Summary

Movie poster for Ploy.

Source: Kung Fu Cult Cinema, copyright 2007 Five Star Production/Fortissimo Films.

[edit] Fair-use rationale

It is believed that the use of this image in the article, Ploy is fair use because:

1. The image is necessary and standard to display the film as a whole for the lead-in infobox.
2. It is not practical to convey a visual image about the film without using the movie poster or DVD or VHS cover, therefore, this is a non-replaceable image.
3. The image is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be inferior).
4. The image does not inhibit sales of the DVD, VHS, or posters for the film.
5. The image does not impede the licensing of the film.
6. The image does no damage to the image or quality of the film. In fact its use exactly fits the purpose of a movie poster or VHS/DVD cover, which is promoting the film.
7. The image is used on other websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make any more accessible than it already is.

[edit] Licensing

This image is of a poster, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher or the creator of the work depicted. It is believed that the use of scaled-down, low-resolution images of posters to provide critical commentary on the film, event, etc. in question or of the poster itself, not solely for illustration on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, 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 for more information. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
