Source (WP:NFCC#4) 2000 AD #561
Date of publication 1988
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Durham Red
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) In the section "Similarity with BloodRayne" the article discusses the alleged plagiarism of this vampire character and the similarity with another vampire character in a later computer game (the article on the computer game has an illustration there, so Wikipedia readers will be able to compare them). Therefore the appearance of the character is more important than it might be in other such articles.
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
No non-copyright alternative exists.
Not replaceable with
textual coverage because
(WP:NFCC#1)
Whether a character has been plagiarised or not is a matter of opinion and judgement, and Wikipedia is supposed to be neutral and non-POV, so it is necessary for the reader to make up his own mind (if he cares to) rather than have the article definitively state the case one way or the other.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) *Only one image.
  • Only used in one article (at time of uploading anyway. No intention to use it anywhere else).
  • Small image and therefore much lower resolution than the original. Also a rather poor quality scan, and it has been defaced slightly, so unsuitable for commercial use.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
See above.
