Image talk:Sports Illustrated Cover Danica Patrick Indy 500.jpg
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I removed the fair use warning (from a bot). Covers are fair use for articles about the magazine, the specific issue, or subjects pictured on the cover. —MJBurrage • talk • 20:29, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
- No they're not, and I'm not a bot. The subject doesn't own the copyright, so it's not being used to describe the copyright owner. Indeed, the template used specifically says "Note: It is not acceptable to use images with this tag in the article of the person or persons depicted on the cover." --Rory096 19:11, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

- The full quote is:
- Note: It is not acceptable to use images with this tag in the article of the person or persons depicted on the cover, unless used directly in connection with the publication of this image. Such usages will be removed.
- Which means that it is fair-use, if the cover appearance is notable, and it is discussed in the article. This appearance is notable because it was the first time an Indy driver had been on the cover of Sports Illustrated since 1981. This is the same standard that makes the Demi Moore Vanity Fair cover fair use in the Demi Moore article.
- You might also notice that my original comment was from long before you removed the image. —MJBurrage • TALK • 19:58, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
