Fair use rationale in Daily Herald (UK newspaper)[edit]

According to the policies set out by Wikipedia, the following image complies with all ten of Wikipedia guidelines for image use:

1. No free equivalent - There is no openly available equivalent on the market for an image of the paper. All of the rights to the paper are now owned by the British Government and are on microfilm at the PRC at Kew.
2. Respect for commercial opportunities. - There is no conceivable commercial disadvantage to publishing the front cover of a nearly seventy-year old issue
3. (a) Minimal usage. - This is the first and only image of the Herald on Wikipedia
4. Previous publication. Non-free content must have been published outside Wikipedia
5. Content. Non-free content meets general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopaedic.
6. Media-specific policy. The material meets Wikipedia's media-specific policy.
7. One-article minimum. Non-free content is used in at least one article.
8. Significance. Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding. Given the importance of the paper to the Labour movement, the cover of the paper regarding the thoughts of the editorial staff on the Second World War is an interesting look at the politics of the labour movement of the era.
9. Restrictions on location. Non-free content is allowed only in articles (not disambiguation pages), and only in article namespace, subject to exemptions. (To prevent an image category from displaying thumbnails, add to it; images are linked, not inlined, from talk pages when they are a topic of discussion.)
