[edit] Fair-use rationale for N64 logo
The image linked here is claimed to be used under fair use as:
- It is a historically significant logo of a widely known and internationally popular gaming system;
- It is provided by Nintendo Company, Limited for public use in the media;
- The logo is only being used for informational purposes of the system itself;
- Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it represents the subject of this article.
[edit] Summary
| Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free logo for Nintendo 64 | |
|---|---|
| Description |
This is a logo owned by Nintendo for Nintendo 64. |
| Source |
The logo may be obtained from Nintendo. |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image. |
| Low resolution? |
The logo is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution. |
| Purpose of use |
The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing Nintendo 64, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey. |
| Replaceable? |
Because it is a logo there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary. |
| Other information |
Use of the logo in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy, logo guidelines, and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. |
