[edit] Fair use in Gough Whitlam

The image linked here is claimed to be used under fair use as:

it is a historically significant photo of major event in significant person's life;
it is low resolution (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality)
the photo is only being used for educational purposes on a non-for-profit encyclopædia.
Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because the photo and its historical significance are the object of discussion in the article. Timeshift 02:23, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
