Latest revision as of 14:42, 24 November 2024

This copyright image is an illustration of a place or region in a roleplaying game, comic book, video game, television program, or film. The copyright for it is most likely held by either Wizards of the Coast and/or artist(s) producing the work in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of copyrighted cartography:

which only shows relevant portions
for commentary on and discussion of the place or region depicted,
on the Great Library of Greyhawk, hosted on servers in the United States by Greyhawk Online,

qualifies as Fair Use under United States copyright law and complies with the WotC Fan Content Policy. Any other uses of this image, on Greyhawk Online or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See "Non-free content", on Wikipedia for more information.

To the uploader:

Please add a detailed non-free use rationale to each image's description, which must also declare compliance with the other parts of the non-free content criteria, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
For an example of non-free use rationale, see Use rationale examples.
This tag should only be used for map images. Do not use it for other purposes.

To patrollers and administrators: If this image has an appropriate rationale please append |image has rationale=yes as a parameter to the license template.

The following documentation is transcluded from Template:Non-free map/doc:

Description

This template is for use on image pages in the "Licensing" section. It should be used on images which have been cropped from a Wizards of the Coast or TSR map for the World of Greyhawk™, freely available from the Wizards site. This is only for use where the map has been cropped but is otherwise unaltered, where use of the entire map would be impractical.

The template will automatically place the page in: [[Category:Maps]].

Usage

Use the following code when editing the image's page:

== Licensing ==
{{Non-free map}}

All images must additionally be given a Non-free use rationale when uploading or when patrolling images...

== Licensing ==
{{Non-free map}}
{{Non-free use rationale
| Article           = 
| Description       = 
| Source            = 
| Portion           =

| Purpose           = 
| Replaceability    = 
| Other information = 
}}

Description: A description of the copyrighted material. Always include the copyright holder here.
Source: Where you acquired the copyrighted material, or how you recreated it.
Article: The exact name of the wiki article in which the media is to be used (unlinked, as the template will link automatically).
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: Is the material in a lower resolution that would be unlikely to impact the copyright owner's ability to resell or otherwise profit from the work? For raster images, this would be strictly the resolution (in pixels) of the picture used; for vector graphics, this would involve the level of detail in the image; for audio, this would be the bit rate and sampling sample resolution used.
Purpose: How does the media contribute significantly to the article(s) in which it is used? The use of the media must not interfere with the media's original purpose.
Replaceability: Explain why sourced text or equivalent free content media (perhaps to be obtained or created) could not adequately convey the article subject.
Other information: If applicable, provide any other information that justifies the current use of this non-free media. This variable is optional, and can be blank or removed.

Example

{{Non-free map}}
{{Non-free use rationale
| Article           = Lazzaretti map
| Description       = Four poster maps comprising the [[Flanaess]].
| Source            = Derived from a digital capture (photo/scan) of the posters (creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by the publisher or the artist. Claimed as fair use regardless.
| Portion           = Small composite image of the posters; a small portion of the commercial product.
| Low resolution    = The image is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.
| Purpose           = The image serves as the primary means of visual identification of the subject (the map) in conjunction with discussion of the topic of the article.  It illustrates educational articles about the map from which the image was taken.
| Replaceability    = This is the promotional version of this illustration, so the image need to be replaced by a free image.
| Other information = Compliant with the [[WotC]] ''[[Fan Content Policy]]'' and Fair Use.   The use of the image will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original. In particular, copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the product.
