[edit] Fair use rationale for Patrick Troughton, Second Doctor and History of Doctor Who

This image, Trougp03.jpg (copied from http://www.shillpages.com/dw/trougp03.jpg), is being linked here; though the picture is copyright © to the BBC, I (Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 00:55, 28 February 2007 (UTC)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use law because:

  1. The image is a low-resolution copy of a publicity photograph;
  2. The image is being used for informational purposes about the character of the Second Doctor, as played by Patrick Troughton in the television programme Doctor Who;
  3. No more free alternative exists or can exist;
  4. The use of the image in this article will have no effect on the BBC's commercial use of the image in question.

[edit] Licensing

Copyright undetermined This is a copyrighted image that has been released by a company or organization to promote their work or product in the media, such as advertising material or a promotional photo in a press kit.

The copyright for it is most likely owned by the company who created the promotional item or the artist who produced the item in question; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion.

It is believed that the use of some images of promotional material to illustrate:

  • the person(s), product, event, or subject in question
  • where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it
  • 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 usage of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Publicity photos.

Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license.

Warning sign

Please note that our policy usually considers fair use images of living people that merely show what they look like to be replaceable by free-licensed images and unsuitable for the project. If this is not the case for this image, a rationale should be provided proving that the image provides information beyond simple identification or showing that this image is difficult to replace by a free-licensed equivalent. Commercial third-party reusers of this image should consider whether their use is in violation of the subject's publicity rights.

To the uploader: This tag should only be used for images of a person, product, or event that is known to have come from a press kit or similar source, for the purpose of reuse by the media. Please add a detailed fair use rationale as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the image and copyright information. Additionally, if the copyright holder has granted permission, please provide further details as to the terms.
