Fair dealing rationale: This image was released by, the Australian Department of Defence as part of a media release informing the media and "public about the activities of the Australian Army in Iraq." I believe that the use of this image, with the Department of Defence being clearly identified as the image's source, on a non-commercial online encyclopaedia such as XIV qualifies for 'fair dealing' status under Australian law and the relevant copyright notice (reproduced above) as it is relevant——to studying and researching the activities and capabilities of the Australian Army and is an image which was released by the Department of Defence in order to inform the public and for use by the media. As this photo depicts an Australian Army patrol during military operation in an active warzone it is not possible to find a free image to replace this photo. A higher resolution version of the image is available at the source link provided above.

This is a copyrighted image that has been released by a company or organization to promote their work or product in the media, such as advertising material or a promotional photo in a press kit. The copyright for it is most likely owned by the company who created the promotional item or the artist who produced the item in question; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion. It is believed that the use of some images of promotional material to illustrate: the person(s), product, event, or subject in question; where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it; on the English-language XIV, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation; qualifies as fair use under Copyright law of the United States. Any other usage of this image, on XIV or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See XIV:Non-free content and XIV:Publicity photos. Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as XIV. 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. Commercial third-party reusers of this image should consider whether their use is in violation of the subject's publicity rights.
