Fair use rationale for Image:Australian rugby championship.jpg

Image:Australian rugby championship.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 22:03, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

REPLY: The purpose of the image is to serve as the primary means of visual identification at the top of the article dedicated to the Australian Provincial Championship.

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

It illustrates educational articles about the Australian Provincial Championship.
The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of the Australian Provincial Championship article topic.
It is a low resolution image, and thus not suitable for production of counterfeit goods.
The logotype is not used in such a way the a reader would be confused into believing that the article is written or authorized by the owner of the Australian Provincial Championship logotype.
It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value.
