Fair use rationale
[edit]
| Description |
This is a logo owned by the Sydney 2000 Bid committee and the Australian Olympic Committee for visual identification of the campaign of Sydney to host the 2000 Summer Olympics and Paralympics. |
|---|---|
| Source | |
| Portion used |
The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image. |
| Low resolution? |
Yes. |
| Article | |
|---|---|
| Purpose of use |
The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the Bids for the 2000 Summer Olympics, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader visually identify the campaign, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing encyclopedic commentary about the subject, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey.
|
| Replaceable? |
Because it is a copyrighted logo, there is no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary. |
