Fair use
We've been over this before, Chowbok. The likelihood of being able to obtain a free picture of Yasui is extremely low or completely unlikely due to the laws in Japan. Unless you can provide a free replacement, or prove that one is actually obtainable, then please stop marking these images. ··· 日本穣 ? · Talk to Nihonjo e  20:32, 24 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Our fair use policy forbids using a non-free image if a free image could be created that could be used in its place. See criterion #1 and counter-example #8. In this case, it would be possible to create a free image; therefore this non-free image may not be used. Whether a free replacement image exists or not at this time is not relevant. – Quadell (talk) (random) 18:09, 28 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I don't know the laws in Japan, but surely the owner of the rights to a photo is allowed to release it into the public domain? Yūko Mita herself could have a photo made to which she owns the rights, and release them. If the law in Japan is such that the subject of a photo owns the rights, then it would require the approval of Yūko Mita to get a photo. Which she might not do. But Yūko Mita is a voice actor; how is what she looks like useful encyclopedia information (as opposed to decoration)? The best thing would be to delete this image and, if no replacement can be obtained, just do without an image in the article. Herostratus 23:13, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
