A page banner that uses an image portraying a copyrighted work. I don't think this is allowed per our non-free content policy. We could easily use something free of copyright to show on the banner, thus this wouldn't constitute minimal use. Globe-trotter (talk) 22:02, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
- The fact that it's a banner is irrelevant. If the photo would be permitted as a normal article illustration, then there's no reason it shouldn't be allowed in the banner. LtPowers (talk) 23:26, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
- The lead image on the Mission article is also of a mural, and I see that you yourself verified the license on that image. So I'm confused why an image depicting non-free content is justified, but a banner is not. PerryPlanet (talk) 02:33, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
- Keep per Wikivoyage:Non-free content#Exemption Doctrine Policy as a (1) photograph of copyrighted artwork, which is (2) otherwise free, and which is (3) in use as a pretty great banner. Steps (4) and (5) are all followed properly too. --Peter Talk 03:29, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
- Speedy keep, per WMF policy there's no copyright violation here. -- AndreCarrotflower (talk) 23:45, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
Result: Kept. --Saqib (talk) 19:48, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
