However, this does not appear to be the case on itwiki: http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciale:PuntanoQui/Template:Copyrighted
Where very many of these images could have be recreated as free works by anyone.. many of them are even the works of wikipedians but they are not released as free content.
Ok, I think that we need to substitute all the "images with permission" with "free content" images whenever it is possible, and I think we all agree with it. I believe that the problems are only for useful images that aren't available with a free license (or that we can't create by ourselves, there's a ton of that kinds of images even on it.wiki).
My doubt is: do we risk anything by uploading images with permission that someone else on Wikipedia will tag as fair-use? I fear it won't be legally acceptable (or at least who has given the permission will retire it immediately) - I don't have an idea, since I'm not a lawyer.
