| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Ling How Doong |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of their biographical article |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
There is no open sourced photo available after using the search engine https://search.creativecommons.org/ to check for alternatives. As the subject has died, it's unlikely a replacement can be found which would be under a creative commons license or in the public domain.
Singapore's Copyright Act says a photo expires 70 years after the death of an author, which would make it extremely unlikely that we will be able to acquire the license rights of photos for this individual in the near future. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | Photo will only be used on Ling How Doong's page to portray his likeness. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
The photo has been resized to be of low resolution, which would be nearly unusable in any publication or newspaper, with the commercial opportunities of the owner preserved as others seeking to use the photo would have to contact the family for the original copy. |
| Other information | The subject of the photograph has been deceased since: 2021 |
