Fair-use rationale for George Tiller[edit]
Fair use rationale for George_Tiller.jpg
- It is believed that the use of this image on the English-language Wikipedia in the George Tiller biographical article, to illustrate the clinical setting of family practitioner/specialist in late abortion care George Tiller, M.D., and the premises of the clinic he owned and operated, Women's Health Care Services in Wichita, Kansas – the practice of whose professional duties is presumed to have led to his being assassinated on 31 May 2009 – falls under the "Non-profit educational" clause of the Fair Use doctrine currently upheld by United States law. (17 U.S.C. § 107)
- The image is irreplaceable; a free analogue is impossible to produce as the original will be covered by copyright for the foreseeable future.
- A low resolution of the original image is used, therefore the portion of the copyrighted work used is of inherently lower quality than the original, reducing the risk of competitiveness and therefore the effects of this copy on the market for or value of versions held by the owner of the copyright.
- The images is available online, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
- The image is being used in an informative way and should not detract from the original photograph, nor does it imply endorsement of the article in question by the image's author.
- The image is significant since it was taken in depiction of Tiller's professional duties within his clinic, which allows for greater precision and illumination of commentary as afforded by its visual identification of the participant and premises; and due to the fact that Tiller has since been assassinated, no free image with these qualities is likely to become available, rendering this image irreplaceable.
