Summary[edit]
| Description |
This is the logo for Starfish Television Network. |
|---|---|
| Source |
The logo is from the following website: http://www.starfishnetwork.org/ |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image. |
| Low resolution? |
The logo is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution. |
| Purpose of use |
The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing Starfish Television Network, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey. |
| Replaceable? |
Because it is a non-free logo, there is almost certainly no free representation. 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 logo in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy, logo guidelines, and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. |

Fair use rationale for StarfishTV[edit]
This logo is copyrighted; however, I feel that it is acceptable to display here under fair use because:
- It improves the article by providing visual identification of the company in question, similar to a portrait of a person.
- Unlike a personal portrait, however, no free equivalent is available or could be created, as logos and derivative works of them are always considered copyrighted.
- The copy displayed here is of low resolution, so its use here does not allow for piracy.
- It is being used here solely for informational purposes, not for commercial gain.
- Its use here does not infringe upon the copyright holder's ability to use or profit from it.
