[edit] Fair use for Ranma Saotome

Though the picture is subject to copyright I (David A) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

It is composed of low resolution scans of comicbook (specifically, manga) panels;
It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the original manga or any adaptations thereof in any way;
The comic image is only being used for informational purposes;
It illustrates a character of the manga series in question and aids in commentary on the plot.

[edit] Licensing

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.
