Description

This template facilitates creating a fair use media rationale with the necessary components.

Note that fair use images also require pointing out the source and author, which can be easily done with Template:Information.

Fair use rationale for use in the article User:SusanG


Even though the media Fair use is copyrighted and not released under a free license, I, SusanG, feel it is covered by fair use for at least one of the following reasons:

  • No free alternative exists.
  • The image is of significantly lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
    • The screenshot does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute and sell the book in any way.
  • The screenshot is related to, and is intended to represent, the Story of SusanG's boring life. Its inclusion in the article is important because it represents a significant point in the person's career that is overviewed in the article. Additionally, the image helps to illustrate the circumstances surrounding the incident.
  • The screenshot is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original book in any way.
  • The placement in a RationalWiki article is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original copyrighted media in any way.
  • A free alternative may not exist now, but in the event of a free alternative being located for the article "User:SusanG" in the future, this file should be deleted as soon as possible.
