We need a way to record which articles an image has been on (not the other way around) and we also need to see how a category changes.
The use of {{tl|fairusein}} will let a user know where the image is intended to be used. It might also be worth noting the information on the image talk page.
Yep. When I put a fairuse image up that doesn't have a categorised reason (book cover, etc.), I try very hard to name the articles it's being used in and why.
On Uncyclopedia, appropriated and manipulated images are de rigeur. But fair use for satirical purposes is even wider than for educational purposes, so I tend to add something like "the uploader asserts that the use of this copyrighted image in the article [[whatever]] is fair use as satirical and political speech under US law" or similar. c.f. http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Niggers , which is a fairly vicious satire of the Cleveland Indians and their staggeringly racist logo, and adapts said trademarked logo for its purposes. (I'm amazed they haven't come after it; possibly they are having the good sense to ignore it and not draw attention to it.)
