Summary[edit]

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Soviet World War II flying ace Vasily Maksimovich Afonin
Author or copyright owner	Unknown
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Creation date: 1950 Original Publication: unknown Immediate source: http://www.warheroes.ru/hero/hero.asp?Hero_id=12757
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Vasily Afonin
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of his biographical article
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	No photo-portraits are known to be under free licenses yet. No Russian photos from after 1945 can possibly be public domain in both the United States and Russia as required by Commons, and photos from earlier can only be public domain if published anonymously by 31 December 1945 and the author remained unknown for at least 70 years, hence finding a free photo of decent quality is often impossible, especially given the disorganized nature of Soviet photo archives, the prevalence of poor documentation of works in them, and ignorance of creative commons licenses among the population of post-Soviet states.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	Image size reduced, just for identification purposes.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	Unknown photographer is probably deceased given the age of the photo, image less than 1,000,000 px.
Other information	The subject of the photograph has been deceased since 1996.
