- To illustrate the subject in question
- Where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information
- on this independent wiki, subject to its image-use policy and applicable law,
qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on this wiki or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Non-free content and Copyrights.
- Please add a detailed non-free use rationale for each article the image is used in, 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 example non-free use rationales, see Use rationale examples.
- Template:Non-free use rationale may be helpful for stating the rationale.
- This tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use.

This notice identifies material whose use or permission needs review under Project:Image use policy and Project:Copyrights.
Usage
{{Non-free fair use|reason=Explain the concern}}
Review
Identify the actual work, source, creator and applicable permission or licence. Explain the specific concern on the affected page's talk page. A non-free tag, a source wiki's numbered criteria or the site footer does not itself grant permission. Preserve exact licence terms and contributor credits. Do not describe imported external criteria as locally adopted rules.
Resolving the concern
Correct inaccurate descriptions or credits when evidence supports it. Consider an appropriately licensed replacement. Removal or a disputed rights issue follows Project:Files for discussion or Project:Deletion policy, as appropriate. Record the reason and preserve useful discussion records.
