Here's another I've just run across. [[Image:Teutonic_order_charge.jpg]] is a (cropped, I believe) version of the front of a box of miniatures. It's been tagged {{Gamecover}}, which is a bit flaky but I can live with.
The artist who painted Teutonic_order_charge.jpg wrote to me about this. He asked to be credited on [[Teutonic Knights]] which seemed a fair request since other painters were linked in the image captions on that page, but the image is now used in [[Battle of Grunwald]] as well with no attempt to justify whether its use there is fair or not and no credit given to the artist.
Image descriptions pages should really explain which articles they are fair use in, and why. Being on a box cover doesn't automatically make an image fair use for every article. Perhaps extending the use of {{verifieduse}} would help?
