*Please don't. There's no legitimate fair use argument for showing every belt ever made. If this is legitimately a user-created photo (and I'm doubtful of that), then I have no strong argument over whether it constitutes an unauthorized derivative work or if its legitimate as a belt is of utilitarian function. But one way or the other, it's not appropriate fair use. --[[User:UserB|UserB]] ([[User talk:UserB|talk]]) 12:39, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

*Comment. It would probably be easiest to email the copyright holders of the actual belt. This is probably the creator of the belt. Do we have a policy on things like Olympic medals? An email to the wrestling organizations involved would probably help. Their legal departments could track down permissions from the rights holders and release permissions for photographs of all of their belts and awards. They should understand that they are only releasing rights to the photographs and not the awards themselves. They would benefit by this because then we could include images in all of their articles. permission@wwe.com is the one on the website of the WWE corp. I may have time later to send one. They may even provide good images through OTRS. FOP images may be allowed if the images are taken in a country that allows FOP for temporary displays.--[[User:Canoe1967|Canoe1967]] ([[User talk:Canoe1967|talk]]) 09:53, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
