[edit] Rationale of fair use for Yoweri Museveni

The image Image:MuseveniGesturing.jpg is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright, I (TreveX^talk 13:10, 5 September 2005 (UTC)) feel it is covered by fair use because:

The image is important to the article, providing an image of the President of Uganda, Yoweri Museveni, the day before the 2001 presidential elections.
There are no known free or public domain 'head-shot' photographs of Yoweri Museveni.
This image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the original image in any way.
The photo is used for non-profit and informational purposes only.
The photograph was taken at a press conference and is intended for wide distribution.

This work is copyrighted and unlicensed. It does not fall into one of the blanket acceptable non-free content categories listed at Wikipedia:Non-free content#Images or Wikipedia:Non-free content#Audio clips. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "Yoweri Museveni" :

To illustrate the subject in question
Where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information
On the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation ([2]),

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 and Wikipedia:Copyrights.

To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed non-free use rationale.
