We *do* have a rule that says exactly that; it's not a matter of interpretation. Have you read [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]]? That complete page, including the guideline examples, is policy.>>

Please quote that section of Non-free which states that book covers may never be used for any purpose, on-Wiki. Thanks

I apologize for removing too much context. The example you gave was

"If, in a biography of Patti Smith, we have no free images of Patti Smith, but we have a book cover of her biography writen by John Brown or whatever, and that book cover, is in fact, a photograph of Patti Smith, we can and should use it in the article."

And then in the same paragraph: "I'm not suggesting we have a rule for not using book covers."

I thought you meant, a rule for not using book covers *in that context*. Which there is.
