I think you are all missing Antheres point. Who cares whether it's fair use or not?

I don't see why it's such a special unique case. Wikipedia's copyright policies are flawed, and this is one example of it.
By the way, isn't there a rule that fair use only applies in articles?
Am I missing something here? The image in the fr-wikipedia is under CreativeCommons, and this was made by the owner of the copyright, Treanna himself [ http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Image:Norbert3.jpg&diff=239605...]. Doesn't mean that the image on en-wikipedia also counts as CreativeCommons?
(that's diving right back into the process part of this whole thing, though)
