Summary

Non-free media information and use rationale true for Death of Christopher Alder
Description	Image of head and shoulders of Christopher Alder
Source	Yorkshire Post
Article	Death of Christopher Alder
Portion used
Low resolution?	Yes
Purpose of use	To illustrate an original encyclopedic article about the death of the subject of the image, on Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. The image is used to illustrate to a reader the appearance of the subject prior to death.
Replaceable?	No
Other information	The photo is of the same resolution as the web source, which is already of a reduced resolution from the original image. The image was released to the media for broad distribution by the subject's family, who would not lose profit from its further distribution. It is believed to be free for distribution and reuse. It has been extensively disseminated by civil rights and justice campaigns and in the news media, both TV, print and digital, since its first release. It lacks any substantial creative element. It is highly unlikely a free media alternative will become available as the subject has been deceased since 1998.
