They probably do it's just there are rather a lot of ways out there of organising your website and they didn't immediately pick up on which one wikipedia uses.
You mean they didn't right click on the image and click "properties"? That seems pretty incompetent to me...
Wouldn't work. That for example would block http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/3/33/Virgin_Killer.jpg/200px-... but not http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/33/Virgin_Killer.jpg.
Given that this is wikipedia there is also no particular reason to expect the image to stay in the same place.
True, but they didn't even do that, as I understand it. They should at least be blocking the image that is actually used on the page. I can't see any reason for them to be blocking non-image files at all, why block the html file when the only infringement is the image?
