File:PNW 60th Anniversary Wrestling Extravaganza.jpg
[edit]
Hold expiredSummary
| Description |
This is a poster for PNW 60th Anniversary Wrestling Extravaganza. |

| Article | |
| Portion used |
The entire poster: because the image is poster art, a form of product packaging or service marketing, the entire image is needed to identify the product or service, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image. |
| Low resolution? |
The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original poster. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as counterfeit artwork, pirate versions or for uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork. |
| Purpose of use |
Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work, product or service for which it serves as poster art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work, product or service and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the creator providing graphic design services, and in turn the marketing of the promoted item. |
| Replaceable? |
As wrestling poster art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the same artwork or poster would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. |
| Other information |
Use of the poster art in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. |

Comment: Is there an alternate URL available? I don't have a facebook account and don't really want to register one just to download a poster. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (💬 • ✍️) 01:42, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- This and File:PNW Superstar Extravaganza.jpg are not "posters", but rather the cover page of the souvenir programs sold at the event. Perhaps some effort could be made to determine if the publications are actually PD per the conditions described in {{PD-US-1978-89}}? Later programs did bear copyright notices and thus are still copyrighted, but they appeared to have been published by a different entity. Also, I second the need for another source. Facebook downscales photos uploaded to their site. Further downscaling to meet Wikipedia's size requirements may seriously compromise the readability of the finished product.

- I haven't been able to find this image anywhere else. It'd be great is this turned out to be PD but I'm not really clear on how to submit under those licenses (see Wikipedia:Files_for_upload/March_2025#File:George_Weingeroff_-_Wrestling_Revue_-_January_1973.jpg). 173.162.220.17 (talk) 19:13, 21 June 2025 (UTC)
- Hmmm, can I invoke WP:CIR in addressing the people who review requests here? There are three files on Commons from that very same issue of Wrestling Revue. At least one of them was re-licensed as {{PD-US-defective notice}} following a deletion request, as "All rights reserved" is not an element used in determining a valid copyright notice (see the text rendered by the template for more information).
