[edit] Rationale of fair use for Tennesee Williams

It is believed that this image, TennWillsig.jpg, is subject to fair use in the article Tennesee Williams because:

It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to market or sell the work in any way.
This image is used on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
The low-resolution image is being used in an informative way and should not detract from the original work.
No free or public domain images have been located.
The alternative images were of very poor quality and failed to achieve their purpose.

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 "Tennessee Williams" :

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 ([1]),

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.
