Transformation (law)Transformativeness – The legal term is transformative, as in "transformative use", "transformative works", "transformative character or purpose", etc. (Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. (1994)). The noun form is transformativeness, not transformation. Note that the current title is the result of a 2020 merge from Transformativeness into Transformation (law). (See also Derivative work#Transformativeness.) I also considered Transformative use as an alternate title, but I'd prefer Transformativeness since the noun described by "transformative" isn't fixed (in contrast to "fair use").
