[edit] Fair use for Turkish Van

The image linked here is claimed to be used under fair use as:

1. it is a historically significant photo of the first registered Turkish Van showing the origins of the breed
2. this cat is dead, therefore no more photos can be created
3. the owner of this cat is dead and cannot be contacted
4. it is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality)
5. the photo is only being used for informational purposes.
6. Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it shows the cat originating the breed which is the subject of this article and is historically significant to the Turkish Van breed. pschemp | talk 23:33, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
