Template:Non-free use rationale audio sample/doc

This template is to help users write non-free use rationales for non-free audio recording samples, especially samples of music, as required by WP:NFC and WP:NFURG. Include this in the File page before the {{Non-free audio sample}} template, once for each time you insert the audio sample into an article.


Please use copyrighted content responsibly and in accordance with Wikipedia policy. A template alone does not make audio samples fair to use. It merely helps you state why you think it is appropriate.

This template is optimized for audio samples used in the article about the album. It may or may not work in other contexts. For example, this non-free use rationale may not be appropriate for music videos. Before saving, try the "preview" feature to review the text produced by this template. Be sure the language is true and complete. If not, consider using the override fields, a different template, or a hand-written justification.
