EXCEPT... that Wikipedia is not your personal blog nor a free webhost (**Official policy** at [[WP:NOT]] ). Userspace IS SUPPOSED to be relted to your wikipedia work, not to post pictures of your family. If you misuse it, don't cry about it later.
Wikipedia IS AN ENCYCLOPEDIA not an scrapbook, but there's plenty of sites where you can put your family pictures if you like
Yes, I am obviously aware that Wikipedia is not my blog or my scrapbook. But neither is my workplace my home, and my desk at work is supposed to be related to my work there. But I am allowed to place pictures of my family on my desk at work without giving up the copyright to those pictures.
And , do you really think vandals will care about the copyright? they WILL get the pictures and post them anyway.
No need to make it easy or legal for them.
