Summary

Licensing

Image from On-line Press Kit. Dobson Books. Archived from the original on July 07, 20016. Retrieved on 21 April 2025.

This is a copyrighted image that has been released by a company or organization to promote their work or product in the media, such as advertising material or a promotional photo in a press kit.

The copyright for it is most likely owned by the individual or company who created the promotional item or the creator who produced the item being promoted; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion

It is believed that the use of some images of promotional material to illustrate:

the person(s), product, event, or subject in question;
where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it;
on the Great Library of Greyhawk wiki, hosted on servers in the United States by Greyhawk Online;

qualifies as Fair Use under Copyright law of the United States. Any other usage of this image, on the Great Library of Greyhawk or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Publicity photos.

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

This photograph is copyrighted and is NOT under a free license. However, it is believed that the use of this work:

to provide visual identification of one or more specific individual(s), or an identifiable gathering of them,
where access would for practical purposes be impossible, or where the individual(s) concerned are deceased,
or where the image is a biographical or promotional image published or approved by the subject of the image
and for whom there is no known representation under a 'free' license,
and is on the Great Library of Greyhawk wiki, hosted on servers in the United States by Greyhawk Online,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on the Great Library of Greyhawk or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Copyrights.

Fair use

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.
Template:Non-free use rationale biog may be helpful for stating the rationale.
This tag should only be used for biographical images, typically those used to identify the subject.

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 inclusion on this wiki. 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.

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