Orange version cover

Palace of the Silver Princess: Original "orange version"{{Non-free book cover}} This low-resolution file of the cover of the orange version of Palace of the Silver Princess, as a book cover, satisfies both the legal test for fair use and Wikipedia's own guidelines for non-free content. Further information can be found on the specific file page for this image on Wikimedia Commons.Guinness323 (talk) 02:10, 20 May 2018 (UTC)

@Guinness323: This file is not being hosted on Wikimedia Commons; it's being hosted locally on English Wikiepdia as non-free content. Just for reference, Commons does not accept non-free content.

Each use of no-free content needs to satisfy Wikipedia's non-free content use policy. More specifically, each use needs to meet all ten non-free content use criteria listed in WP:NFCCP. The reason why JJMC89 removed the file from this article was because it lacked the separate specific non-free content use rationale required by WP:NFCC#10c. Each use of a non-free file is required to have such a rationale and it is the responsibility of those wanting to use a non-free file in a particular way to provide such a rationale (as explained in WP:NFCCE). So, if you feel that the non-free use of this file in this article is justified, then please add the required rationale to the file's page, not this talk page.

Now before you do that, I am going to suggest that you carefully read through WP:NFC#Meeting the contextual significance criterion, WP:JUSTONE and WP:NFC#cite_note-3. Although Wikipedia does allow non-free book covers to be uploaded and used in articles, such usage is generally only considered acceptable when the cover art is being used for primary identification ourposes in the main infobox or at the top of a stand-alone article about the book in question. When the cover art is used in other articles or other locations in the article about the book, non-free use tends to be much much harder to justify and is almost always only considered acceptable when the cover art itself is the subject or sourced critical commentary somewhere within the article. So, with this in mind, if you still feel that the non-free use of the cover art is justified, then please explain how in the rationale you add to the file's talk page. You can write out the rationale yourself or you can use {{Non-free use rationale book cover}} if you like, but you should be as specific as possible as to which article content the image is intended to support. Seeing the cover art should be something which significantly improves the reader's understanding of the relevant content to such a degree that not seeing the cover art would be detrimental to that understanding. You have to explain why simply adding a link to Palace of the Silver Princess#Publication history somewhere in the brief paragraph about the "orange cover" would not be an acceptable alternative to using the file per WP:NFCC#1 and item 6 of WP:NFC#UUI. After you add the rationale clarifying all of the above, re-add the file to the article. If anyone then disagrees with the ratioanle, then they can (1) tagged the file with {{di-disputed fair use rationale}} or (2) nominate the file for discussion at WP:FFD.

One last thing, please don't add (i.e., display) non-free file's to article talk pages per WP:NFCC#9 and WP:TPG#Non-free images. If you want to discuss a non-free file, then you may link to the file's page instead. If you have questions about what I posted above, feel free to ask them below. If you have any general questions about non-free use, you can ask for help at WP:MCQ or WT:NFC. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:48, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
