It isn't as simple as that. What may be fair use on Wikipedia might not be fair use on another WMF project. Eg, an image from a news agency could be F.U. for Wikipedia but not for Wikinews. This - as I understand it - is one of the reasons why EDP/Fair Use has to be per project/language.

The EDP is - by its nature - for unfree material that cannot be reused (or at least can only be reused on a case-by-case basis).
I was under the impression that the EDP was intended for things like fair use which apply equally to reusers as to Wikipedia.
