Summary
[edit]
This is an image of the cover of the DVD Sea Patrol: Season 1. This Australia television programme first aired on the Nine Network in Australia in 2007. The series was created and produced by Hal and Di McElroy and the DVD is distributed by Roadshow Entertainment. There is no free image as it is an image of a DVD cover.
Fair-use rationale
[edit]
| Description |
An image, scanned by myself, of the front of the DVD of the first season of Sea Patrol. |
|---|---|
| Source |
Scanned by self using my own copy of the Sea Patrol DVDs, which are distributed by Roadshow. |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
Cropped to include just the entire image of the front cover of the DVD - because the image is cover art, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image. Image has not been altered from its original state, other than being scaled down from print to web resolution. The cover of the media is not the "content" specifically being sold by the publisher of the media; they are selling the DVDs and the episode on those discs. |
| Low resolution? |
Yes, less than 0.1 megapixel. Therefore, the image could not be used for DVD piracy purposes (eg. to make illegal print copies of the DVD artwork) and also, the image does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the DVD in any way. Also, digital versions very similar to this image have been previously published on numerous websites, so this use on Wikipedia does not make the image significantly more accessible. |
| Purpose of use |
To illustrate the DVD shown in the image in the Wikipedia article about the first season of Sea Patrol. 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. Image allows for identification of the DVDs and television season in question and provides illustration to the claim that DVD box set is available. It also helps the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. It is also used purely for educational purposes and is used in no way for commercial use. |
| Replaceable? |
As it is a DVD Cover, no free images are available which would represent the DVD in the same way, in regards to accuracy and education value. |
| Other information |
Use of the cover art in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. |

Licensing
[edit]
  | This image is the cover of a videotape, DVD, Blu-ray, etc. and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the video or the studio which produced the video in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of video covers
qualifies as fair use under the Copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. |
