I think Erik means that the Italian wiki is free to 1) restrict acceptable content further than Wikimedia requires, or 2) find ways within Italian and U.S. law (combined) to accept material under copyright exceptions like fair use. (Yes, I know Italy does not have "fair use.")
Content that is non-commercial-use-only or specially licensed to Wikipedia or Wikimedia is counter to Wikimedia's mission of free knowledge.
