[edit] Fair use rationale in Muddy Waters

  1. Article: Muddy Waters
  2. Use: Infobox
  3. Description: Black and white notable promotional photographic image of Muddy Waters (deceased), photographer unknown.
  4. Source: source: http://www.muddywaters.com/bio.html - The Official Muddy Waters website. (the creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by the photographer or the estate of Muddy Waters. Claimed as fair use regardless.
  5. Portion: Entire front cover.
  6. Low_resolution: Yes. Only as much resolution as necessary to identify and show the musican Muddy Waters used for the article of the same name, not enough to be used for piracy.
  7. Purpose: Illustrates the image of a famous person (Muddy Waters) in the article of the same name, and blues and is shown for historical reference, the genre he played in, the blues, and the historical context in which he fits, American popular music for educational and critical purposes only.
  8. Replaceability: No free equivalent is available and the subject is now deceased.
  9. other_information: This iconic image is already widely distributed to identify Muddy Waters and is already wideley published as part of music catalogs, reviews and biographical articles relating to the subject so we degrade no market value by providing it ourselves. The image contributes significantly to the article of the same name in which it is used by providing visual information directly relevant to the identification of the subject.
