Summary[edit]

This is a photo illustrating the article, not the cover. From what I understand of fair use, this still qualifies. If that is incorrect, please leave a message on my User talk:Chidom page. Thanks.

Updated/additional information, in response to the message on my talk page:

This image is from After Dark magazine: Butler, George, photographer. "Musclebound for Glory". After Dark, Danad Publishing Company, Inc., New York, NY, 98 pp. February 1977, p. 41.

I believe it is fair use under the fair use policy because it meets it meets all of the criteria set out at Wikipedia:Fair use#Po;icy, as below:

1. The photo is being used to illustrate a primary assertion of the Wikipedia article about the magazine in which it appeared; free material is not available and cannot be created. See After Dark (magazine).
2. Use of the photo in Wikipedia will not replace its original market role. The magazine is no longer published; this low-res version of the image is not likely to be marketable, in any event. I believe its usage here doesn't infringe upon the photographer's ability to market the photo in a high-res version.
3. This is a low-res image; the photo is the only example of its kind used for the article.
4. Publication of the photo is cited above.
5. I believe the photo is encyclopedic and meets general Wikipedia content requirements.
6. I believe the photo meets the media-specific policy requirements.
7. The photo is being used in the referenced article.
8. The photo contributes significantly to the article—it is used to illustrate a relevant section in the article dealing with the magazine's homoerotic content; this is an illustration of that content.
9. The photo is not being used outside the article namespace; it is used solely to illustrate the article.
10. This description provides:

• Attribution of the source
• This fair use tag, which I believe to be appropriate under Wikipedia policy, as explained here.
• This constitutes the fair use rationale for use of the photo in the specific article in which it appears; it only appears in the one article.

Having carefully reviewed Wikipedia's policy, I believe this is sufficient. Thanks.—Chidom ^talk  00:02, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
