Audio clip from the Yes, Prime Minister episode "Man Overboard". The extract illustrates an example Nigel Hawthorne's performance of the "big speeches."
Fair use rationale
This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion in the article Yes Minister" is claimed as fair use because:
- it complies with guidelines as described at Wikipedia:Music samples
- file was created in Ogg Vorbis format, with a quality setting of 0
- it is a sample of 45 seconds which is <10% of the original recording of 29 minutes
- its length and quality would not readily allow it to be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording
- it is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
- it illustrates educational articles that specifically discusses the album and song from which this sample was taken and named.
- it is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
- The sample illustrates the performance (the speed of delivery, timing, audience laughter, etc.) that words convey inadequately. The clip celebrates not the words, but the performance.
I believe that this use of the excerpt is in good faith, and that its inclusion enhances rather than reduces the commercial value of the recording from which it was drawn. The JPStalk to me 11:20, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
