IAR only applies to encyclopedic content not wikipedia namespace memorials
I tend to agree that there is not a persuasive reason to throw out our copyright policy for this. "I like it" has its place, but copyright isn't one of them.
That said, surely demarcating the limits of IAR is an astonishing missing of the point. The reason IAR is a bad thing to cite here is not that IAR doesn't apply - it's that the reason for ignoring the rules is a poor one.
