[edit] Fair use rationale for the article Tipping the Scales

I, radar123, believe that the use of this non-free image in the article Tipping the Scales is fair because:

1. No free or public domain images exist for this or any album cover.
2. This image does not replace the original market role of the album.
3. This should and most likely be used only on the article for the album it depicts.
4. This image is widely distributed in other venues, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
5. This image meets all general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopedic.
6. The image significantly illustrates the object of the article.
7. The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the album in any way.
8. The cover is being used for educational and informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original album in any way, or deprive its copyright holders of any financial gain.
9. The image is of lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, and could not be used as artwork on illegal CD copies of the album.

Note that this does not claim fair use in articles other than Tipping the Scales. If you wish to use this image in another article, please add a new fair use rationale below.

[edit] Source

1. Derived from a digital capture (scan/photo) of the album/CD cover (creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by the record company or the artist. Claimed as fair use regardless.

The use of this image in the article(s) Tipping the Scales was reviewed by SkierRMH on 01:26, 3 November 2007 (UTC) and deemed likely to qualify as fair use, as it is believed to meet all criteria as described in Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. This image's use on other pages or in different contexts may require additional review.

[edit] Licensing

This image is of a cover of an audio recording, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the album or the artist(s) which produced the recording or cover artwork in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers solely to illustrate the audio recording in question, 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 described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. For an example fair use rationale, see here.
