| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | George M. Stratton |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | This file is a visual depiction of the Stratton experiment, wherein he wore a set of inverting mirrors attached to a harness allowing, and forcing, him to see his own body upside down. The image is a modern version of what the system looks like. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
There are no photos of the original system. The papers Stratton published on the experiment contain no photos. Any photos which exist are likely from recent versions of the experiment and hence automatically copyrighted. Creating the system requires significant technical expertise and funding. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | The article has two non-free files (the other being the photo of the subject of the article itself). The image will be used in just this article. Reducing resolution doesn't seem applicable to this case. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
The owner is not in the business of commercially exploiting images, and the specific image has no particular monetary or "advertisement" value. |
