Album cover of Virgin Killer, the subject of much controversy, and causing the first Wikipedia to ever be censored in the UK. |

| Portion used |
The entire cover: because the image is cover art, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image. |
| Low resolution? |
The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original cover. 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. |
| Purpose of use |
To accompany the critical commentary of the controversy surrounding the image |
| Replaceable? |
As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. |
| Other information | Cover art made by Steffan Böhle (for Scorpions album released on RCA records). The image represents a controversial and notable album cover which is essential to illustrate the nature of the controversy. |
