Summary[edit]

Rationale of fair use[edit]

The image Image:Sid and Marty Krofft's Redeye Express.jpg is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright, I (VinnieRattolle feel it is covered by fair use because:

1. No free or public domain images have been located for this film.
2. The image is of lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
3. The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the film in any way.
4. For an article about a film, the promotional artwork is arguably one of the most important images that could be included. This is the artwork, intended by United Artists for wide distribution. As such, it has future historical significance, and is a more appropriate choice than any other image available.
5. Its inclusion in the article is important because it suggests something of the film's style.
6. Versions of this image are available on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is. The poster is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original film in any way.

Licensing:[edit]

This image is a scan of a newspaper page or article, and the copyright for it is most likely held by either the publisher of the newspaper or the individual contributors who worked on the articles or images depicted. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of newspaper pages to illustrate either the publication of the article or issue in question, with the publication name either visible on the image itself or written in the image description above, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair 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. Note: If the image depicts a person or persons on the cover, it is not acceptable to use the image in the article of the person or persons depicted on the cover, unless used to directly illustrate a point about the publication of the image. Use of the image merely to depict a person or persons in the image will be removed. Fair use //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Sid_%26_Marty_Krofft%27s_Redeye_Express.jpg true
