Then again, I suppose this does reflect the condition of how fair use and copyright law are blatantly ignored/misunderstood by most Wikipedians...for further information, see [[Wikipedia:Fair use review]], which has a fuller description of what's going on.
Or that the problem is hard, and has had more people throwing rocks than working on scalable solutions. I've put out several ideas for process improvement in the past couple of days, and have had almost no substantive response, either positive or negative. I find it hard to take complaints seriously when the issue is ignored for months at a time, then there a paroxysm of righteous indignation, then it goes back to being ignored. We need X number of people who are going to work on this steadily for Y hours per week, exact values to be determined by the efficiency of the processes we develop.

Where? Not to be obnoxious, but I haven't seen any of your proposals. Ever since I became properly acquainted with fair use, I've tried to ensure images I upload at least comply with the American law. The problem is that when I stumble across obviously not fair use pictures uploaded by others, there's no good process for handling them.
Talk pages of Fair use review, WikiProject Fair use, and TBSDY's proposal page Fair use criteria/Amendment. Logical places, or so I thought... :-)
