I do believe that Adam's work is enough for him to have some credit for it.
If any of us edit an image, we do receive the credit (there is even a
template for it:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Retouched_picture ). So, why so
much trouble to credit him? Can't we do like we do with multiple licensed
pictures (for example:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Redwikiheart-10,8M-heartonly.png )?

Regardless; why are we being such dicks? As
diametrically opposed to
copyright as some of us are, it genuinely doesn't hurt anyone for those
works to be tagged CC-BY-SA. They can still be reused widely, Adam gets
credit for his hard work, and everyone is happy.
Someone proposed such a tag on Commons for the NPG images (PD in US,
CC-by or whatever elsewhere), and supporters happened to include me
and DCoetzee, but quite a lot of people strenuously objected. (I don't
have a link to hand.) But I'm sure Adam's diplomatic skills will
convince people the proposal should be resurrected.
