There are over 7,500 "promophotos", which qualify as "fair use". The
english wiki would do well to abandon them, they are NOT free, and
should be replaceble. As a sysop on the dutch wiki involved in the
removal of copyrighted images, I get complaints time and again: "but
they have been approved on the english wiki".
It would certainly make life easier if the english wiki got rid of them.

So, when is the English wikipedia planning to get
rid of the
noncommercial and wikipedia-only images that are still in use.
less than 1000 of each less
And what
about fair use, which to me sounds like wikipedia-only but without
asking permission?
That isn't quite the case.
