Fair use[edit]

It is believed that this image, 206875~Watermelon-Man-Posters.jpg, is subject to fair use in the article Watermelon Man (film) because:

1. This image is used to illustrate how it was originally promoted during its theatrical release.
2. It is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality).
3. It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to market or sell the work in any way.
4. This image is used on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
5. The image is being used in an informative way and should not detract from the original work.
6. No free or public domain images have been located for this item.

Licensing[edit]

This image is of a film poster, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher or the creator of the work depicted. It is believed that the use of scaled-down, low-resolution images of film posters to provide critical commentary on the film in question or of the film poster itself, not solely for illustration where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.
