editPromotional shot of Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty (formerly known as The KLF) in their new incarnation, "2K". An online version of the press release, including this photo, is available at the website of the band's record label for this release, Mute/Blast First.
I User:Kingboyk believe and assert that use of this image in the "2K"-era section of the article The KLF is fair use under US law because:
- the image was released to the press to promote 2K;
- no suitable free alternative has been found.
Fair use in Fuck the Millennium
editI User:Kingboyk believe and assert that use of this image in the article Fuck the Millennium - an article about 2K - is fair use under US law because:

Licensing
editThe copyright for it is most likely owned by the company who created the promotional item or the artist who produced the item in question; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion.
It is believed that the use of some images of promotional material to illustrate:
- the person(s), product, event, or subject in question;
- where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it;
- on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation;
qualifies as fair use under Copyright law of the United States. Any other usage of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Publicity photos.
Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license.

Please note that our policy usually considers fair use images of living people that merely show what they look like to be replaceable by free-licensed images and unsuitable for the project. If this is not the case for this image, a rationale must be provided proving that the image provides information beyond simple identification or showing that this image is difficult to replace by a free-licensed equivalent. Commercial third-party reusers of this image should consider whether their use is in violation of the subject's publicity rights.
