ଛାଞ୍ଚ:Non-free image rationale/doc
This is a documentation subpage for ଛାଞ୍ଚ:Non-free image rationale. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original ଛାଞ୍ଚ page. |
For copyrighted images to be used on Wikipedia in accordance with the fair use policy, they must meet all ten requirements of the Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. This template and others like it allow for a standardized way of providing this information. This template is an alternate to the {{Non-free use rationale}} template.
This template is designed to be used in conjunction with {{Non-free image data}}. On every non-free image's description page, each article which uses that image must be noted, and given its own fair use rationale. The {{Non-free use rationale}} template is too cumbersome for images used in multiple articles; in those instances, that template has to be duplicated in its entirety for each use. This template allows for the display of all necessary information without unnecessary redundancies.
Usage
[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]Copy the following code and paste onto the appropriate image description page.
Though the {{Non-free image data}} template need only be used once per image, a {{Non-free image rationale}} template and its parameters must be used for each article in which the image is used.
Remember that each image must also be tagged with an image copyright tag.

Parameter | Explanation |
---|---|
Description | Description of image, including but not limited to applicable film, series, book, magazine, performer(s), character(s) or other elements, as well as date where possible. |
Source | Source of image, referencing external site if applicable, and original work/source if not specified elsewhere. |
Portion | How much copyrighted material is used; the amount used must not make the work as a whole less valuable to the copyright holder. |
Low resolution | Images must generally be of low resolution, just high enough to demonstrate what is being shown. Images that require high resolutions of near-commercial grade quality should have that reasoning justified here. |
Other information | Optional parameter; if applicable, any other information about the media that may apply, including specific copyright information. |
Article | Specific article in which image is used, and to which purpose/rationale applies. |
Purpose | How the media contributes significantly to the article(s) in which it is used, and how the use of the media does not interfere with the media's original purpose. |
Replaceability | Explain why no free equivalent could reasonably be obtained or created to replace this media. |
