You're confusing user space with article space. User pages are *not* the distributable free content encyclopedia. User pages are part of the

There is a perfectly reasonable goal of avoiding fair use images in

wherever possible. As I understand it, we also remove most Fair Use images
from
user pages because we normally don't have any decent Fair Use rationale for using them there. However, as a parody, we do have a rationale for the AYB image.
It's a good thing to keep a few fun things on Wikipedia outside of the
article
space. It's a good thing to be wary of fair use images. It's a bad thing to delete humour because of misplaced "fair use" political correctness.
They all get bundled together in the downloads, though.
Do you mean the databse dumps? You can download just the articles.
