You probably took it too personal. This same thing happened to a board member. Wikipedia has in many ways gone from one extreme (having blatant copyright violations scattered throughout the articles and no one willing to take them down) to the other (having public domain or licensed images ripped off user pages and deleted simply because the uploader didn't state the source fast enough).
That's not to say that you responded to it correctly.
