Non-free media information and use rationale true for Can (band)
Description	Promotional photograph of Can, courtesy Spoon Records
Source	Spoon Records
Article	Can (band)
Portion used	whole
Low resolution?	The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original image. 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	Identification and critical commentary in the Can (band) article, a subject of public interest. The image confirms to readers they have reached the correct article, and illustrates the group.
Replaceable?	No free alternative could be created to clearly illustrate the topic in question. The band have been split for twenty years time, and a new one is unlikely. Currently available images are of low quality and do not illustrate all the band members. A free contemporary image would not convey the same information.
Other information	Use of the promotional photograph in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. The image meets general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopaedic.
Fair useFair use of copyrighted material in the context of Can (band)//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Can_promo_71.jpgtrue

This image of a promotional photograph is being linked here; though it is subject to copyright, it is believed to meet with Wikipedia's fair use image policy for use in this article because:

it is a low-resolution reproduction;
it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the photograph in any way;
it is being used only for informational purposes;
its inclusion adds significantly to the article because it illustrates the article's primary subject matter; and

This is a copyrighted image that has been released by a company or organization to promote their work or product in the media, such as advertising material or a promotional photo in a press kit.

The copyright for it is most likely owned by the company who created the promotional item or the artist who produced the item in question; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion.

It is believed that the use of some images of promotional material to illustrate:

the person(s), product, event, or subject in question;
where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it;
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation;

qualifies as fair use under Copyright law of the United States. Any other usage of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Publicity photos.

Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license.

Warning sign

Please note that our policy usually considers fair use images of living people that merely show what they look like to be replaceable by free-licensed images and unsuitable for the project. If this is not the case for this image, a rationale must be provided proving that the image provides information beyond simple identification or showing that this image is difficult to replace by a free-licensed equivalent. Commercial third-party reusers of this image should consider whether their use is in violation of the subject's publicity rights.
