Rationale[edit]

It is believed that the use of this image qualifies as fair use in the article Dalek Attack because:

  • Admiral Software has released no such images into the public domain, and a replacement image could not be created that would adequately provide the same information
  • The image is being used for no purpose other than to identify the subject of the article
  • The image resolution has been significantly decreased from the original, so copies made from it would be of inferior quality
  • The use of this image neither detracts from the game nor inhibits its salability in any way

Text description[edit]

Text description of image, for use in alt text:

An illustrated cover shows a silver Dalek firing its energy weapon, which appears as a blue-grey beam extending from the shorter of the two central protruding rods. The words "DALEK ATTACK" are in jagged silver letters across the upper part of the image. The background of the image shows the skyscrapers of an urban skyline; surrounding the Dalek (clockwise, from upper right) are: a tyrannosaurus (standing on a building's roof); a hulking simian humanoid figure holding a gun; a blue police box; the multicoloured diamond Doctor Who logo; a superimposed banner with the flags of the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain and Italy; a crumpled sign reading "I LOVE NEW YORK"; a logo reading "ADMIRAL SOFTWARE"; a figure with a Dalek base and a wizened, humanoid torso and head; the Statue of Liberty, broken and fallen at an angle; and a red Dalek flying on a disc and shooting its energy weapon.
