I am more interested in the consequences of adding "fair use" images to the articles. As Axel pointed out we will violate the GFDL by embedding "fair use" images in our articles.
I don't think it is at all obvious that adding "fair use" content to an article makes it incompatible with the GFDL. If so, then we have a major problem with respect to even quoting copyrighted books.
Alex has said this, and you have echoed it, but I'd like to see a full analysis of it before we rely on it or accept it as true.
If it *is* true that nothing GFDL can contain any "fair use" content at all, then we will have to not quote from books or newspapers. But I think that's absurd, and I think that the GFDL is not incompatible with ordinary fair use.
