A very nice recent example of what our top notch artists can do with Inkscape:

How do we reach out to more people with skills like this?

Credit the author inline where the images/diagrams are used. It's only fair; they are after all the copyright owner even if a licence to use under the GFDL has been allowed.

Once a user has the time, skills and will to make these kinds of diagrams, I don't think being credited inline or not will make much difference. There are many prose editors who contribute fantastically without being credited inline.

I don't find Zoney's suggestion to be all that bad. Accepting any such credits should still be optional. In theory both texts and images are editable, but as a practical matter the brutal editing is almost completely limited to texts. Once accepted, images tend to remain stable. Texts on the other had often start as stubs and are layered up from there by a variety of users.
Even if we don't accept nd images, adding a tag like "From an original free image by ..." should be fine.
