Article

Valkyrie Profile (video game)

Portion used

The entire cover: because the image is cover art, 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 copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original cover. 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.

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 a 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. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the creator providing graphic design services to relevant concerns and video game marketing to the public. 

Replaceable?

As cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the item in question would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. 

Other information

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

Licensing[edit]

Fair use rationale[edit]

Rationale for the fair use of this image in the article Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth:

  • No such images have been released into the public domain or under a free license, and a free replacement image cannot be created that would adequately provide the same information.
  • The image is being used for no purpose other than to identify the subject of the article.
  • The image resolution has been significantly decreased from the original, so copies made from it would be of inferior quality.
  • The use of this image neither detracts from the game nor inhibits its salability in any way.
  • Copyright in box art most likely held by Enix/Square Enix
