(WP:NFCC#1)
n.a.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) * This image is of a low resolution quality.
  • The image is of historical importance to the article - indeed it is one of the most iconic images related to the acts committed by the individual whom the SOLE subsection of the Wikipedia page the image is actually intended for use upon
  • Low resolution image used, vastly inferior from original image
  • Image is slightly cropped (in addition to being of a low resolution quality), therefore making commercial use of reproduced copies of the image highly unlikely
  • The (low quality reproduction) photograph can be reasonably described as "irreplaceable" and meets the Non-free content criteria - in particular, given the fact this image has been widely distributed outside of Wikipedia in much greater sizes, that no free alternative exists.
  • Unlikely that a freely-licensed image suitable for illustrating this section of the article describing the murders committed by Randy Kraft exist, owing to the nature of the article.
  • The image is significant given the content of the article.

Other information


  • Intended content of the (reduced size and cropped) image is not intended for use in a manner detrimental to the original copyrighted media (NFCC2)
  • Image is intended for use in one sub section only upon the article regarding Randy Kraft (NFCC3)
  • This actual image has already been widely distributed in the media since its actual finding in May of 1983 - via various methods. In doing so, this image has been displayed in both a better visual quality and in a higher resolution (NFCC4).
  • Image is pertinent to article (NFCC5)
  • This image is relevant to the section (for which sole usage is intended) in question; and would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic.
  • The image is intended for usage in this article only (NFCC6, NFCC7 & NFCC8)
  • I have given a very specific name to the file. In addition, the nature of the content leaves ambiguous use of the image extremely unlikely (NFCC9)
  • Having specifically named the website from where I captured the image, plus having specifically named the original author of the image in question and he who has since given authorization to various crime magazines etc. who have themselves reproduced the image in various formats (Leo Hetzel), in further addition to meeting the specific criteria outlined, this image meets the Non-free use rationale guidelines outlined by Wikipedia (NFCC10).
  • I believe that the use of this image upon only the English-language version of Wikipedia to illustrate a subsection of the article relating to Randy S. Kraft falls under the "Non-profit educational"; the "nature of the copyrighted work"; and the "amount and substantiality of the portion used" clauses of the Fair Use principle which are currently upheld by United States law. (17 U.S.C. § 107)
