Fair Use Rationale[edit]

As this is the first wiki page I've ever added a picture to, I've had a little difficulty with the fair use rationale. I understand the need to prevent breech of copyright. What I don't understand so well is why this image has been picked up twice and yet the other image on the article MissionForce:_CyberStorm was not.

It would appear that the two deletion attempts were by an automated process. I would request that if a human is reading this page, think again before deleting the image.

  • Would the game's creators have added a "Print Screen" feature if they didn't want you to use it?
  • Would the game's publishers object to an image of the game appearing in a fairly positive article on the internet?
  • Is the image in any way reducing the publisher's ability to make revenue from the game?
  • Is it ironic that Internet bots created by Humans to patrol Wikipedia are interfering with an article about a game where Humans are fighting for survival against Robots created by Humans to serve as their minions but that ultimately revolt and attempt to destroy their creators?

That last question is rhetorical. Of course, if proved correct, I'll be hunted down and killed by a wayward wikibot.

Anyway, I'd better go. My computer is making scarey noises....GordonTG 23:35, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
