Summary

[edit]
Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free EP series cover true for I/III, II/III, and III/III
Description

This is the compilation of all three EP covers for the EP series I/III / II/III / III/III by the artist Poison the Well. The cover art copyright is believed to belong to the label, Ferret Music, or the graphic artist(s), Brad Clifford.
Poison the Well released three 7" vinyl EPs (I/III, II/III and III/III) each with one third of a larger image used as the cover art. This image depicts the result of combining all three EPs.

Article

I/III, II/III, and III/III

Portion used

The entire cover: because the image is cover art, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image.

Low resolution?

The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.

Purpose of use

Main infobox. 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. To display the resulting image when all three EPs are joined together.. Use 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.

Replaceable?

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. Although the graphic artist, Brad Clifford, created the artwork for each EP, I (Fezmar9 (talk)) compiled all three covers using MS Paint.
