Summary
[edit]
| Description |
This is the logo for 2nd/14th Light Horse Regiment. |
|---|---|
| Source |
The logo is from the following website: http://www.army.gov.au/Corps_Badges.asp |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image. |
| Low resolution? |
The logo is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution. |
| Purpose of use |
The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing 2nd/14th Light Horse Regiment, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey. |
| Replaceable? |
Because it is a non-free logo, there is almost certainly no free representation. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary. |
| Other information |
Use of the logo in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy, logo guidelines, and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. |
| Fair useFair use of copyrighted material in the context of 2nd/14th Light Horse Regiment//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2_14_QMI_cap_badge.giftrue | |
Rationale: the image is no different to any of the other regimental cap badges that have been uploaded and included in articles on the regiments they represent, and so this should also be included.
