Fair use rationale[edit]
| Description |
This image is a faithful digitalization of the 1943 plane crash that killed Władysław Sikorski, a historically significant photograph. The copyright for it is most likely held by the person who took the image or the agency employing the person. |
|---|---|
| Source |
The image has been derived from: http://www.fpp.co.uk/History/Sikorski/Times040703.html. |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
Because the image is historically significant, the entire image is needed to identify the subject, 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 |
Identification and critical commentary in the Władysław Sikorski article, a subject of public interest. The image confirms to readers they have reached the correct article, and illustrates the intended branding message. |
| Replaceable? |
Because the image depicts a non-reproducible historic event, there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary. |
| Other information |
Use of the historic image in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. The image meets general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopaedic. |

Licensing[edit]
 | This image is a faithful digitisation of a unique historic image, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the person who created the image or the agency employing the person. It is believed that the use of this image may qualify as non-free use under the Copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. Please remember that the non-free content criteria require that non-free images on Wikipedia must not "[be] used in a manner that is likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted media." Use of historic images from press agencies must only be of a transformative nature, when the image itself is the subject of commentary rather than the event it depicts (which is the original market role, and is not allowed per policy). |
