Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Ding Dong, Ding Dong
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) To serve as the primary means of visual identification at the top of the article dedicated to the work in question, as well as supporting a point made in the text regarding the simplicity and repetitiousness of the song's lyrics.
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
In line with its inclusion in the article's infobox, the file image is official artwork for a pop-single release and can therefore not be replaced by a free image, existing or otherwise.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) The image will be used as the primary means of visual identification for the work discussed in an educational article, which explores in depth George Harrison's song "Ding Dong, Ding Dong" – with text dedicated to background and interpretation of the composition, recording, release as a single, including packaging and promotion such as picture sleeve design and supporting concert tour, commercial and critical reception, and the song's context within the career of the artist. Because, the article is about a song released as a single, the entire image is needed, particularly since contained within the picture sleeve are the songs lyrics, which are discussed at length in a section early in the article. The relevance of the image is unique to Harrison's song "Ding Dong", meaning that its use in wikipedia will be confined to this one article.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
The use of the image in the "Ding Dong" article will not negatively affect the commercial interests of the copyright holder, because the image is being used to support an educational article only. As low-a-resolution-possible image has been used which will allow the cover to effectively serve its purpose in the educational article, allowing for clarity of the song words depicted.
