Template:Non-free biog-pic/sandbox

This photograph is copyrighted and is NOT under a free license. However, it is believed that the use of this work:

to provide visual identification of one or more specific individual(s), or an identifiable gathering of them,
where the individual(s) concerned are deceased, or where access would for practical purposes be impossible,
and for whom there is no known representation under a 'free' license,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Copyrights.

Please remember that the non-free content criteria require that non-free images on Wikipedia must not "[be] used in a manner that is likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted media." Use of images from press agencies or photo agencies must only be of a transformative nature, when the image itself is the subject of commentary rather than the individual(s) it depicts (which is the original market role, and is not allowed per policy.)
