The misapprehensions regarding fair use may have been festering quite 
some time.  To put the cat amongst the pigeons: [[Image:AtlasAward.jpg]].

Since fair use images are not allowable in user space, and barnstars and 
awards are given to people on their user page, it's kind of interesting 
to see this precedent set.  There's brief discussion on the fair use 
issue at the bottom of [[User talk:Pedant/2004-11-19]].

It seems to be an old enough image and use that some discussion might be 
warranted.
