[edit] Licensing

This image is a screenshot from a copyrighted film, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by the studio which produced the film, and possibly also by any actors appearing in the screenshot. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots for identification and critical commentary on the film and its contents on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.

[edit] Fair Use Rationale

This image is used to illustrate the fictional character Mister Squiggle on the article of the same name. It qualifies as fair use for the article on Mister Squiggle based on the fair use guidelines and policies, specifically

1. There is no free equivalent, nor can one be created. Mister Squiggle is a fictional character, and as a puppet (of sorts) all images of him are copyrighted.
2. The image respects commercial opportunities. Mister Squiggle is a TV show - an image of him doesn't compete with the commercial product in any significant way.
3. The use is minimal. Only one image is used for an article on this iconic character
4. The image has previously been published, by abc.net.au on their website, or alternatively as a TV programme
5. The image meets general content requirements and is encyclopedic - it identifies an iconic children's character
6. The image meets the general requirements for images
7. The image is used on at least one article, specifically Mister Squiggle
8. The image contributes significant to the article. Mister Squiggle is a character of bizarre appearance that cannot adequately be captured in words
9. The image is used only in the article namespace
10. The source of the image is http://www.abc.net.au/corp/history/gal90s2.htm, the copyright holder is the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. This is an appropriate fair use rationale, and an appropriate fair use tag is about {{non-free film screenshot}}
