Hoi,
Your plea is not well targeted. Commons our principal resource for the
storage of media does not allow for "fair use" images. You describe a
problem that is different depending what resource you target, many
projects have different rules as to "fair use". The rules of new and
the existence of "fair use" material differ as well. These rules have
changed over time consequently pictures that complied with the rules
at that time would not comply anymore.

Commons may not allow it, but there are many non-free images there
which are mistagged (frequently as public domain, for example). At
least it's more clear how to handle them there.
