Summary edit

Licensing: edit

This image shows a flag, a coat of arms, a seal or some other official insignia. The use of such symbols is restricted in many countries. These restrictions are independent of the copyright status. This tag does not indicate the copyright status or the source of the attached work. A normal copyright tag, a source (and a detailed non-free use rationale, if necessary) are still required. See Wikipedia:Copyrights and Wikipedia:Uploading images for more information.

This is a representation of a government, military, regimental, family, or other symbol such as a flag, seal, emblem, coat of arms or crest. This symbol may be copyrighted by its holder. As well, it is known that the representation of this symbol is either copyrighted by the holder of the symbol or is not available under a free licence. There may also be other restrictions on reproduction, including but not limited to article 6ter of the Paris Convention. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such symbols to illustrate the symbol in question on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as non-free use under the Copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content. Fair use //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:RSAF_TAB_shoulder_patch.jpg true

Fair use rationale for RSAF Black Knights & Tengah Air Base edit

1. No free-licensed or public domain images have been located that would serve as a suitable replacement for this image.
2. Given the purpose this image is being used for in the article, it is unlikely that any such image will be located in the future (copyright for departmental logos and the Royal Arms are protected by Letters Patent and will never expire under the terms of the Copyrights Designs and Patents Act 1988.)
3. As a squadron logo, the image has little to no commercial value, and its reproduction here will not deleteriously affect profits for the copyright holder.
4. The image is being used here for informational purposes only, and its use on the English-language Wikipedia is not predicted to affect the value of the image or that of its copyright in any way.
5. The patch is relevant to the page of RSAF Black Knights as it was from this very base that the first team of aerobatic performance was created by the volunteer pilots, even to the extent of using the Air Base's centerpiece motif as the team's patch.
