Fair use for Bob Dove

This image is being used for identification of a deceased historic figure who is the subject of an article written for nonprofit informative purposes. It is believed that the use of the image on Wikipedia will have no impact on the commercial value of the image or any other works it is currently used in. Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

  1. It is a historically significant photo of a famous individual. (The subject was admitted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2002.[1], and this image shows the subject as a collegiate football player at the University of Notre Dame.)
  2. It is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality).
  3. The photo is only being used for informational purposes.
  4. Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because the image captures the subject at the pinnacle of his collegiate career, and therefore cannot be easily replaced with a free image of comparable educational value.[2]
