This is a logo of an organization, item, or event, and is protected by copyright and/or trademark. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, of logos for certain uses involving identification and critical commentary may qualify as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. Certain commercial use of this image may also be trademark infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Logos.

This tag must have an accompanying fair use rationale which must be unique to the usage of THIS image in each article in which it is used. You must also give the source and copyright information for all fair-use images uploaded.

Use of the logo here does not imply endorsement of the organization by Wikipedia or the Wikimedia Foundation, nor vice versa.

[edit] Fair use in Prince (musician)

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

It illustrates the main subject of the respective article.
It represents a minimal use, as it is of a reasonably low resolution.
It has been previously published by the copyright holder, both in physical and digital form.
Use of the image does not impede the ability of the copyright holder to profit.
A free alternative is not available, since redrawing a logo is no different than just using the original.
