[edit] Summary

Non-free / fair use media rationale - non-free logo for Portal Three Kingdoms
Description

This is a logo for Portal Three Kingdoms.
Source

The logo is from the http://www.wizards.com/ website.
Article

Portal Three Kingdoms
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 Portal Three Kingdoms, 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 image is a Magic: The Gathering set symbol, the logo of a Magic: The Gathering set. It is copyrighted by Wizards of the Coast and copied from http://www.wizards.com, their official website.

The use of this logo in the article for this symbol's set is believed to fall under fair use under United States copyright law because:

  1. There is no free equivalent for Magic set symbols.
  2. The image is to illustrate the card set, to inform, and to comment on the card set, and contribute significantly to the articles by showing how sets may be identified, and how the rarities of cards in each set are distinguished.
  3. The image is used to illustrate a set symbol that is a small portion of the card's total surface.
  4. The reproduction of the image here in no way infringes on the ability of the copyright holder (Wizards of the Coast), nor the retailers who deal directly with consumers, to sell the cards on which the logos appear.
  5. The set symbol images pictured here are widely distributed and are visible in many places on the Internet, and the copyright holder has historically tolerated this online reproduction of unaltered set symbol images.
