[edit] Summary
Logo used by the Boston Red Sox
[edit] Rationale
It's a logo. That's why we have the logo template. Logos are fair use under Wikipedia's policy, and anyone can tell that this is, in fact, a logo of a sports team, as already stated on this page. That being said, the logo is of fairly small resolution, and, while copyrighted by the team, is being used for educational purposes, with no personal or monetary gain. As logos are inherently copyrighted, there is no free equivalent, and it is not replaceable.
| Non-free / fair use media rationale - non-free logo for Boston Red Sox | |
|---|---|
| Description |
This is a logo for Boston Red Sox. Further details: Image of the Boston Red Sox team logo |
| Source | |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image. |
| Low resolution? |
yes (72 dpi). |
| Purpose of use |
The image is used to identify Boston Red Sox, a notable product or service. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the product or service, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about that product or service, and illustrate branding associations of the product or service in a way that words alone could not convey. Specifically, the image is used to visually identify the Boston Red Sox team logo; The image does not limit New England Sports Ventures, Fenway Sports Group or Major League Baseball's ability to use the logo for promotion of The Boston Red Sox team and products and is used solely as an educational tool. |
| Replaceable? |
The image is a non-free logo (and thus cannot be replaced by a free alternative). |
| Other information | Use of the logo in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy, logo guidelines, and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. |

| Description |

| Source |
This logo was used by the company |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image. |
| Low resolution? |
The logo is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution. |
| Purpose of use |
The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing Yankees-Red Sox rivalry, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey. |
| Replaceable? |
Because it is a logo 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. |
