Hoi, When Wikipedia is not legal in a country, it brings the people who are living in that country and edit in danger. When Wikipedia is not legal in that country, it means that we are hampered in our aim; bringing information to all people. It is not at all ridiculous at all to want to be legal in all countries. When some content is problematic, the office has the right and the might to remove such an article from a project. Particularly on the English language Wikipedia this happens with some regularity. It does happen on other language projects as well. Thanks, GerardM

You're arguing from the ridiculous premise that Wikipedia must be legal in every country. Even the topics of some articles aren't legal in some countries.

Gerard, I will not only think Internet. I hope others will not think only USA. If the point is "If we use a fair-use image, a commercial organization can at least take whole Wikipedia pages and re-use them." Well, this is not necessarlily true outside the USA. So fair use images should be banned for the same reason that applies to NC's.
