| Portion used |
Whole (though cropping excess blank margins) |
| Low resolution? |
The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original image. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork. The image has been reduced from the original high-resolution to the minimal 0.1-megapixel resolution advised by WP:IMAGERES. |
| Purpose of use |
Identification and critical commentary in the KMD article, a subject of public interest. The image confirms to readers they have reached the correct article, and illustrates the group. |
| Replaceable? |
No free alternative could be created to illustrate the topic in question. The group has been split since 1993, when Subroc died; as of 2020, Zev Love X (Daniel Dumile) has also died. |
| Other information |
Use of the promotional photograph in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. The image meets general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopedic. |

No free alternative could be created to illustrate the topic in question. The group has been split since 1993 and, as of 2020, at least two members have died (including Daniel Dumile, aka Zev Love X/MF Doom). Further, with respect to Daniel Dumile as an individual subject, the image captures a unique historical stage in the development of his career and public image, prior to his radical reinvention of himself in the MF Doom persona in the late 1990s, after which he was rarely ever seen without a mask covering his face. |

It is believed that the use of this image may qualify as non-free use under the Copyright law of the United States.

Use of historic images from press agencies must only be of a transformative nature, when the image itself is the subject of commentary rather than the event it depicts (which is the original market role, and is not allowed per policy). |
