| Description | This is a poster for the film The Elephant Man. The poster art copyright is believed to belong to the distributor of the film, the publisher, or the graphic artist. |
| Source | Multiple sources such as IMDB and Wikipedia |
| Article | The Elephant Man |
| Portion used | The entire poster. Because the image is a poster, a form of product promotion, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image. |
| Low resolution? | The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original poster. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork. |
| Purpose of use | The SVR Wiki is a project aimed to collect information and record events relating to the SVR, both past and present. The film represented by the poster includes scenes filmed on the railway. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in a thumbnail at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original work, namely the poster creator's ability to provide poster design services and in turn marketing the movie to the public. |
| Replaceable? | As a poster, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the poster would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. |
| Other information | Use of the poster in the SVR Wiki article is based upon the Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law. |
