File:Fair use image - see below for link to file
Original - File:Carlos-Smith.jpg - The Black Power salute was a noted human rights protest and one of the most overtly political statements in the 110 year history of the modern Olympic Games. Tommie Smith (center) and John Carlos (right) showing the raised fist after the 200m in the 1968 Summer Olympics, while Silver medallist Peter Norman from Australia (left) wears an Olympic Project for Human Rights badge to show his support for the two U.S. athletes
Reason
Bit of an experiment to see what others think of this concept. Some images are ‘fair use’ meaning they can only be used with certain restrictions. I don’t think this should exclude them from being VPs even though they can’t be displayed as images in the gallery, have restricted article usage, etc (FPC would be unlikely to allow this though). Some of these images have huge EV, far higher than most of the 'historical' images that get voted in at FPC or here. The restricted use probably also won’t please those who think VP value is measured by how many articles an image is used in, as for many it may be a single article. Anyway, as a first try I thought I’d nominate this canonical Black power salute image from the 1968 Mexico Olympics (came to mind after I watched the excellent 2008 Australian documentary Salute last night - get your hands on a copy if you can). Reasons for nominating beyond that are pretty obvious. Vote or comment away.

Thought I explained this, and a possible way of breathing some life back into VP, but obviously a waste of time, so Withdrawn. --jjron (talk) 05:38, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

People who would like to search VPs to reuse will not find fair-use images valuable. ZooFari 22:14, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
