Fair Use Rationale for Quark (Star Trek)

 * 1) There exists no free alternative, nor can one be created. Quark is a fictional character, all images of him are necessarily copyrighted.
 * 2) This image respects commercial opportunities - a cropped screenshot cannot meaningfully compete with a 44 minute episode.
 * 3) The image represents a minimal use - it is a cropped screenshot - less than a single frame from an episode that has over 50 000 frames. It is of a reasonably low resolution.
 * 4) The image has been previously published, in the broadcasted, as well as sold on DVD Star Trek Deep Space Nine episode "The Dogs of War"
 * 5) The image is of a major character from a culturally significant series of television shows. It is encyclopedic.
 * 6) The image generally meets the image use policy.
 * 7) The image is used in at least one article, Quark (Star Trek).
 * 8) The image contributes strongly to the article. As a fictional character, the subject is more easily visualised.
 * 9) The image is used only in the article namespace.
 * 10) The image is from http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Image:Quark2375.jpg and the copyright is owned by Paramount Pictures.

Fair Use Rationale for Ferengi

 * 2) This image respects commercial opportunities - a cropped screenshot cannot meaningfully compete with a 44 minute episode.
 * 3) The image represents a minimal use - it is a cropped screenshot - less than a single frame from an episode that has over 50 000 frames. It is of a reasonably low resolution.

 * 5) The image is of a major character from a culturally significant series of television shows. It is encyclopedic.
 * 6) The image generally meets the image use policy.
 * 7) The image is used in the article Ferengi.
 * 8) The image contributes strongly to the article Ferengi, even though the article also includes another image of multiple Ferengis, because the character Quark was by far the most notable Ferengi character. As a fictional character, the subject is more easily visualised.
