Low resolution?

With no basis for knowing the photograph's original resolution, pd_THOR (talk · contribs) contends that its current size of 395 × 591 pixels is sufficiently low-resolution to meet the needs of its articular application and the non-free content criteria.

Raising the Flag at Ground Zero

Purpose of use
  • It is the actual image being discussed in the article, and thus aids tremendously with the description and commentary included in the article. Without it, the article would be vague or unclear, and not of the best educational quality.
  • It is being used solely for informational purposes, not for commercial gain.
  • It is of a much lower resolution than the original, so displaying it here does not allow for piracy (any copies made of it would be of very inferior quality).
Replaceable?
  • No free equivalent is available, nor could one be created.
Article

33 (Battlestar Galactica)

Purpose of use

The composition and intent of Raising the Flag at Ground Zero was the inspiration for Lest We Forget, a recurring prop from the 2004 Battlestar Galactica series. In discussing its introduction in the episode "33", series creator and episode writer Ronald D. Moore described the prop and compared its background and content with this real-world equivalent.

Replaceable?

This is a unique copyrighted work with no exact libre-licensed equivalent from which to draw appropriate comparisons.
