Summary[edit]
| Description |
A promotional image of the EastEnders character Tom "Rocky" Cotton, portrayed by Brian Conley. |
|---|---|
| Source |
Digital Spy for promotion of the character's arrival to the series. |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
The image has been cropped from the original. |
| Low resolution? |
The image has been reduced in size from the original. |
| Purpose of use |
The image serves as the primary means of visual identification of the subject, illustrating a single educational article. It is not otherwise possible to accurately describe the appearance of the character solely through a textual medium sufficient to create a picture in one's mind, so the image is significant in illustrating the subject of the article, facilitating critical commentary as it provides an immediate relevance to the reader more capably than the textual description alone. |
| Replaceable? |
As a fictional character, this image is not replaceable with any free image of the actor. There is no access to the public on the EastEnders set, therefore it would not be possible to get a free image of the actor in character, and any other free image of the actor would not represent the character in terms of the setting, costume, etc. The copyright holders have not released any images for free use and have not allowed free use of existing copyright images, and any screenshot would be similarly copyrighted. A free image of the actor would not be not true to the original character as the subject of this article and would be inadequate for identification or commentary. |
| Other information |
The author/owner is the BBC. Use of the image will not affect the value of the original work that has been published elsewhere on the Internet or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original. In particular, this could not be used to make illegal copies of the programme in question. Copyright presumably belongs to the BBC. |

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.
