Ah - wow. Maybe in those cases, a clear message to that effect is
worthwhile on the page?

Here's another one of my images I just found:
http://www.french-riviera-mag.com/tourism/nice-information-13303.htm

Incredibly, I think they're actually complying with the GFDL. Link to
GFDL licence, *and* link to Wikipedia authors list.

I think I'm starting to think that if Wikipedia credited
photographers, then people who reuse Wikipedia material would be more
likely to do so too.
