How?  Exceptions are supposed to be 1) to illustrate historically
significant events; 2) to include identifying protected works such as
logos, or 3) to complement (within narrow limits) articles about
copyrighted contemporary works.

2 seems out, 3 seems out.  Does 1 cover quotes about historically
significant events?

Or is the whole EDP resolution terribly biased toward images?
