[edit] Fair use in Holodomor and History of Ukraine

Though this image is subject to copyright, I feel its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell their biik in any way
The map shows the result of a research that are not copyrightable, the creativity involved into creation of the map is minimal and has no commercial value
The map is extremely significant because it shows the sourced information about the death rates during Holodomor. Any self-made maps would almost certainly spark a controversy as an original research. It would be very difficult to validate accuracy of a self-made map as the original source is an obscure, not available online or in the most libraries. Alex Bakharev 08:26, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
