Vanity Fair cover versus original photograph
editI just reverted placement of the Vanity Fair magazine cover featuring the Leibovitz photo. The photo at issue in the case is the photograph itself; not the Vanity Fair cover. Since this is an article about the case, I think the photo itself (not the Vanity Fair cover) is the more appropriate image. I'm not sure what "fair use" rationale we might have to use the VF cover, when the Leibovitz photo is available by itself, and was the subject of the litigation. Can we discuss, please? --Lquilter (talk) 05:23, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
- Considering the entire background section discusses the photograph as published on the cover of Vanity Fair it only seemed more appropriate to show it in its original context; besides the cover image is higher resolution and clearer, so simply for aesthetics' sake, that works better for me. Even with the all the magazine clutter (title, promo captions, etc) it's still easy enough to compare the cover with the poster. Lastly, when we have several pieces of non-free content when one can fulfill the encyclopedic purposes, it makes sense from a Wikipedia mission point-of-view to eliminate unnecessary non-free content. howcheng {chat} 16:23, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
- Given that it's been several days and you have yet to counter my argument, I have reinstated the Vanity Fair cover. howcheng {chat} 16:23, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
