Fair use for Karen Dotrice[edit]

The image Image:UD 5 Lily.jpg is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright, I (RadioKirk talk to me 23:14, 29 January 2006 (UTC)) believe this image is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. It is a low-resolution screenshot of a motion picture or accompanying material;
2. No free or public domain images have been located for this purpose. While public domain images have been located for the subject of the article, none is recent, nor do they adequately illustrate the points in the subject's career that are discussed in the accompanying text;
3. The image does not limit the copyright holders' ability to market the motion picture or any home video in any way; and
4. The image is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the subject or her work in any way.

Licensing[edit]

This image is a screenshot from a copyrighted film, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by the studio which produced the film, and possibly also by any actors appearing in the screenshot. It is believed that the use of a limited number of low-resolution screenshots for critical commentary and discussion of the film and its contents on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, 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.
