[edit] Fair Use Rationale

In accordance with the non-free content criteria, the fair use rationale for this image is as follows:

1. No free equivalent. Due to the fact that the station was deorbited in 1991 and this image was created in the last hours of the complex's existance, no equivalent free image is available for use.
2. Respect for commercial opportunities. The image is more than a decade old, and the organization that created it is itself not-for-profit, and so commercial uses of the image are likely minimal.
3. Minimal use. Image is small and of low resolution, and as such is unlikely to be of any use for piracy or other purposes.
4. Previous publication. Image has been published on - and was taken from - the FAS website.
5. Content. Image is encyclopaedic, showing one of very few views of the combined station-TKS complex, in addition to displaying beautifully one of the uses to which Doppler radar can be put, and as such meets Wikipedia's content requirements for non-free images.
6. Media-specific policy. The image meets Wikipedia's media-specific policy.
7. One-article minimum. The image is used in at least one article, Cosmos 1686, and may well be used in further articles such as Salyut program, Salyut 7, and Doppler radar, among others .
8. Significance. The image contributes significantly to the article, showing an extremely rare view of the combined station-TKS complex, and as such is highly important to the Cosmos 1686 article.
9. Restrictions on location. Image is only used in main article namespace.
10. Image description page. The image description page contains the following.
    • (a) Proper attribution of the source of the material, and attribution of the copyright holder if different from the source.
    • (b) An appropriate fair-use tag indicating which Wikipedia policy provision permitting the use is claimed. A list of image tags is at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Non-free content.
    • (c) The name of each article in which fair use is claimed for the item, and a separate fair use rationale for each use of the item, as explained at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline. The rationale is presented in clear, plain language, and is relevant to each use.

• In conclusion, the image is of unique historical value to articles relating to Cosmos 1686, and as such may be classified as fair use under United States copyright law.
