Rationale of fair use
editIt is believed that the use of this image in the article, The Decline of Western Civilization II is fair use because:
- The image is necessary and standard to display the film as a whole for the lead-in infobox.
- It is not practical to convey a visual image about the film without using the movie poster or DVD or tape cover, therefore, this is a non-replaceable image.
- The image is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be inferior).
- The image does not inhibit sales of the VHS, DVD or posters for the film.
- The image does not impede the licensing of the film.
- The image does no damage to the image or quality of the film. In fact its use exactly fits the purpose of a movie poster, promoting the film.
- The image is used on many websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make any more accessible than it already is.
