Summary[edit]

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Photograph of Downthesun with Shawn "Clown" Crahan, 2002
Author or copyright owner	downthesun / Lance "Kuk" Collier
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Original publication: 2002 Immediate source: https://m.facebook.com/kuk2016/?ref=page_internal&mt_nav=0
Date of publication	May 27, 2019
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Downthesun
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	Identification and critical commentary in the Downthesun article, a subject of public interest. The image confirms to readers they have reached the correct article, and illustrates the group. It also illustrates the band with/their connection to Shawn "Clown" Crahan, who was responsible for connecting the band's two founding members, Lance Collier and Nathan Church, to the band's other four members.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	No free alternative could be created to illustrate the topic in question. The band have been split since 2011, and a new one is unlikely. A free contemporary image would not convey the same information.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	This picture only features Downthesun and its members (inc. Shawn Crahan).
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original image. 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.
Other information	Use of the photograph in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. The image meets general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopaedic.
