Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gallery of Scout and Guide national emblems
This issue isn't just a legal issue.  I think I'm on solid ground when I say that under US copyright law, the doctrine of fair use makes us perfectly free to have this article.  If the law were the only issue, that's a non-issue.  If this were Gallery of news media photos, forget it, we would be infringing on their right to exclusively market their product.  But a gallery of logos of non-profit organizations should not be a problem UNDER THE LAW.  It is, however, a problem on WIKIPEDIA.  Our |fair use policy is intentionally more restrictive than what we could get away with.  This is because Wikipedia is a free-content encyclopedia.  We only use non-free images under a claim of fair use when it is a necessity - we don't have articles that contain no free content.  Sometimes, this is inconvenient.  Sometimes it's annoying.  I am a Scouter and have been involved with Scouting for 20 years.  I like this article.  I enjoy looking at it.  But, for the ultimate goal of being a free-content encyclopedia, we sometimes have to make compromises and one of them is that we don't have articles containing nothing but non-free images
