| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Kawakita v. United States |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | This photo depicts the subject of a United States Supreme Court decision relevant to United States law regarding treason and citizenship/nationality law. Inclusion of the photo in this article will enhance the reader's awareness of Kawakita as a person, not simply as a court case. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
No free photographs of Kawakita (either at his trial or at any other time in his life) appear to exist. Sources indicate that Kawakita probably died in the 1990s, so it is impossible at this time to create a new photo of him now. Even if Kawakita were still alive now, he was born in 1921, and a photo of him taken now (as a very, very old man) would not enhance the article in the same way as this photo (taken during his trial) would. |
| Not replaceable with textual coverage because (WP:NFCC#1) |
The existing text of the article — or a textual description of this photo — would not adequately depict Kawakita or enhance the article. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | Only one photo of Kawakita (this photo) will be used in the article. This copy of the original photo has been reduced in size and resolution relative to the original photo. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
This copy of the original photo has been reduced in size and resolution, and it should therefore not unduly infringe on any commercial interests of the copyright holder. |
