Article

Platinum & Gold Collection (Lit album)

Portion used

The entire cover: because the image is cover art, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image.

Low resolution?

The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.

Purpose of use

Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to music concerns and in turn marketing music to the public.

Replaceable?

As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.

Other information

Use of the cover art in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under the copyright law of the United States as described above.

Fair Use Rationale for the article Platinum & Gold Collection (Lit album)

[edit]
  • The cover is used to represent an album, Platinum & Gold Collection, by a popular musical group, Lit
  • This image has been used in several websites, and so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is
  • The image is of low resolution
  • The image is being used in an informative way and should not detract from the album
  • The image does not limit the performer or record company's ability to sell the album
  • The only purpose of the image is to help describe the album Platinum & Gold Collection and no other purpose

If this rationale is not adequate, please tell me specifically what is wrong with it before moving to delete the file and I will try to improve it. Or feel free to fix it yourself. InnocuousPseudonym 10:06, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
