"fair use" means "I think it's fair that this Wikipedia article should be illustrated", while those who are aware that it's part of copyright law tend to have mistaken ideas, such as "educational use" allows anything.
I agree. Is there a way to provide a very quick summary to anyone using this tag?
See my point #1: the average uploader doesn't care. A summary such as "If the owner of this image doesn't agree that it's fair use, I agree to be sued for copyright infringement" might work. I don't think anything less blunt would get the message across.
