The Origin (band)

Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)

It illustrates an educational article about the music group represented in the image.

The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of the article topic. It is particularly appropriate for that purpose as each member of the group is clearly named. It also conveys the mood of the musical artists, which would not be achieved in -- for example -- a photo taken by a fan at an event. The image is of moderately low resolution, and is thus not suitable for production of counterfeit goods. This is a copy with lower resolution than the original. The logo is not used in such a way that a reader would be confused into believing that the article is written or authorized by the owner of the logo. It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value. It was originally taken from http://www.allmusic.com/artist/origin-mn0000890621 and made smaller. As of 0416^[update], it is still available elsewhere on the Internet. Therefore, publishing it on Wikipedia does not make it more available than it otherwise would be.

Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license.

Warning sign

Please note that our policy usually considers fair use images of living people that merely show what they look like to be replaceable by free-licensed images and unsuitable for the project. If this is not the case for this image, a rationale must be provided proving that the image provides information beyond simple identification or showing that this image is difficult to replace by a free-licensed equivalent. Commercial third-party reusers of this image should consider whether their use is in violation of the subject's publicity rights.
