| Date of publication | 2000 |
| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Over the Top: The Rarities |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | to serve as the primary means of visual identification at the top of the article dedicated to the work in question. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. No free equivalent can equal this image (any would be a derivative of this artwork). |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | The use of this image does not require deployment in more articles than necessary save one, namely the article dedicated only to the album. It has been modified and resized to prevent copyright infringement, and larger excerpts are unnecessary. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
The use of the image for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to music concerns and in turn marketing music to the public. The image in this form is already widely distributed to identify the album as part of catalogs and reviews, so we degrade no market value by providing it ourselves. |
| Other information | The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. |
