I don't think we should exclude fair use material that could not be used in a copy of Wikipedia that is sold for profit. I think we should flag it, but I see no reason to exclude it.
The reason is that we want to produce a freely distributable and modifiable encyclopedia.
Exactly. *Freely* distributable and modifiable. ;-)
Yes that's pretty funny. You have already made clear that you interpret "the free encyclopedia" as "free-for-noncommercial-use". The intended and understood interpretation however has always been "GNU-free". [[Wikipedia:copyrights]] says "free-as-in-free-software", which by anybody's definition (FSF, OSI, Debian) does not include mere free-for-noncommercial-use materials.
