Summary edit
The image is of the ship badge for HMAS Rankin, one or several naval vessels of the Royal Australian Navy. The ship badge is a logo used to represent the ship, and applies to all active or previous ships bearing the name. The image was originally located at http://www.navy.gov.au/badges/crest_rankin.gif, but following a reorganisation of the RAN website in August 2008, can now be found at http://www.navy.gov.au/w/index.php/Category:Badges
Fair use rationales edit
As several Australian warships may have used this name and ship badge over history, the image will likely be used in multiple articles. A fair use rationale should be provided for each article.

| Portion used |

| Low resolution? |
The logo is 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 used to identify a warship bearing the name HMAS Rankin. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the warship, inform the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the warship, and provide visual information about the warship's badge and motto, which may be the subject of critical commentary |
| Replaceable? |
The image is protected by copyright and other restrictions including article 6ter of the Paris Convention, therefore a free use alternative won't exist |
