Article

Tunnels (novel)

Portion used

Front cover. Because the image is a book cover, 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 image is of lower resolution than the original book art (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).

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. The image will be placed in the infobox of the book's article. The image helps the reader identify the subject, assures the reader they have reached the correct article, and illustrates the subject in a way that text can't. For use only on articles related directly to the subject. The image is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original book in any way. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original work, namely the book cover creator's ability to provide book cover design services and in turn marketing books to the public.

Replaceable?

As a book cover, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the book would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different image in the infobox would be misleading as to the identity of the work. No free or public domain images have been located for this film that clearly display the subject as clearly as this.

Other information

Use of the book cover in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.

Fair use for Tunnels

[edit]

This image, Tunnels Roderick Gordon & Brian Williams.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I Lifesawhirl feel it is covered by the U.S. and Uk fair use laws because the use of a single cover "to illustrate an article discussing the book in question" is allowed. Absent of an official "series cover," it logically follows that this single cover used in conjunction with its fellows to illustrate an article on the series to which they all belong is allowable.
