Article | |
Portion used |
The entire image is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image. |
Low resolution? |
The mugshot is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended, without being unnecessarily high resolution. |
Purpose of use |
The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing Elias Abuelazam, a subject of public interest. The significance of the mugshot is to help the reader identify the person, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing information about the person in a way that words alone could not convey. |
Replaceable? |
Because it is a mugshot there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary. |
Other information |
Use of the mugshot in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy, logo guidelines, and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. |
