This is a documentation subpage for Template:Non-free use rationale book cover. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is to help users write fair use rationales for non-free book covers and other book art as required by WP:NFC and WP:FURG. Include this in the image file, once for each time you insert the book art image into an article.
Please use copyrighted content responsibly and in accordance with Wikipedia policy. A template alone does not make book cover art fair to use. It merely helps you state why you think it is appropriate.
This template is optimized for book cover art used in the article about the book. It may or may not work in other contexts. For example, this fair use rationale may not be appropriate for images of magazines, comic books, collections, or alternate editions.
Before saving, try the "preview" feature to review the text produced by this template. Be sure the language is true and complete. If not, consider using the override fields, a different template, or a hand-written justification.
