I don't mean to be a killjoy, but taking the example of the image by David Monniaux, for instance, and licence compliance nonwistanding, doesn't "courtesy of Wikimedia Commons" make us a more efficient publicity than "GFDL" ?
there might be some food for though in the fact that we are requesting a lower profile, in practice. Should we encourage people to * Put proper EXIFs * double-licence their images under a Free CC licence * put an example of proper credits including a mention of Commons (like "(c)Rama / Wikimedia Commons, Cc-by-sa) below all images ?

DMCA takedown notice seems overkill. Geez, we already provide free content, is it so hard to fulfill the license conditions? I just want to poke them and say "improve your credit-giving regime".
Oh yeah, do that first ;-) Always seek compliance first!
