The incorporation of "fair use" images in Wikipedia ensures that the encyclopaedia as a whole cannot straightforwardly be used/redistributed outside of the US.
The grand theories of a free resource for all ring hollow with so much work required to create a redistribution of the encyclopaedia, omitting the non-GFDL images, but including all the great free licence ones that are there.
Which is why images are tagged. All one has to do is run an SQL query to remove images that have pages tagged with non-free licenses. It's not our fault that people are so anal about their copyrights.
