The history of the image in the article

When I first created this article around the end of May, 2007, I included the cartoon from The Daily Mail. Stephen Ewen and I discussed whether it could be included under a Fair Use doctrine. He also advised me to contact The Daily Mail with an explanation of the cartoon and a request for permission to use it. I emailed The Daily Mail but never received a response. I believe that Stephen also emailed them, but once again without a response. The Mail's website, which we both used, did not, for some reason, allow a copy of the email to be made, so no record of those emails exists.

I have now decided to reinstall this image. I will email the Daily Mail again, this time making a copy of the text of my email before inserting it into their Website. I will then add this text to the justification that accompanies the image here at CZ. I think that this will be sufficient to show that we have made a good faith attempt to receive permission to use this cartoon.

  • Here is what I originally wrote on Stephen's discussion page (it is now in his Archive 5 at [1]): "Hi, Stephen. Could you take a look at Ray Casey and see what you think. I remember that when I wrote this article for Wikipedia and put in the picture almost 3 years ago I spent a long time trying to read up on the British copyright system. I also ran my findings past at least two Wiki administrators who seemed to think that my use of the image was permitted. In any case, it hasn't yet been deleted from Wiki and it's sure been there a long time by their standards. If you don't think it's permitted, however, please delete it instantly and I apologize in advance for bothering you with it.
