Gretzky
Okay, well, I'm not convinced it isn't fair use, but I double-checked and Wikipedia does have a public licence image of Gretzky, so I swapped it for that. When I cam across the article, the image was busted, which is why I changed it. WilyD 21:06, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
 * FWIW, both the Cherry and Gretzky images (which are otherwise identical in usage) are licensed as fair use promotional materials - so I'm not clear on the overall point. WilyD 21:16, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Who knows. I just wanted to let you know about a recent edit summary.  I have now found the policy reference I referred to earlier, which says: "Fair use images may never be included as part of a photo montage, as their status as being "fair use" depends on their proper use in the context of an article (as part of criticism or analysis)".  It's up to you to decide if you agree with Thivierr's interpretation or not.  --Skeezix1000 21:37, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I think Thivierr didn't go after the Don Cherry image because its fair use source information was added after Thivierr made his edit to The Greatest Canadian (according to the article history). --Skeezix1000 21:45, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Perhaps you're right, but I'm not really sure that the article has a photo montage per se, rather than merely arranging several photos in a table - the critical commentary level on the page for anyone buy Fox/Douglas is pretty weak, but I do believe you may be able to at least argue it's non-zero, given the talk about the contest as a whole, their involvement in it, their representation and so on ... anyways, I'm not a lawyer, so don't take my opinion too seriously.
