English Wikipedia strictures on nonfree image use would reduce the number of acceptable images to a minimum.

Personally I think the album cover is tasteless. But in the eternal struggle between bad taste and hypocisy, I usually find bad taste less offensive.
I think most people here agrees with you on that. The cover is tasteless (and repulsive, even), but that doesn't mean it should be censored. A big chunk of the world thought the Muhammad cartoons were tasteless, but we have those up.
It's like that Voltaire-quote. You know which one I'm talking about (I'm not gonna actually say it, because only douchebags actually say it).
