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 )?

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.
