[WikiEN-l] LOL

[Philippe Beaudette]

As I recall (and Anthere, apologies if I've got this wrong) - the image is a member of the fr community who died recently and Anthere wanted to keep it as a memorial, if it made sense.  She was obviously prepared to let it go (and did, in fact, let it go) but someone applied IAR and *poof* it's back.

  en.wiki doesn't accept images that are permitted to be used only on
  Wikipedia, because our content has to be "free", "editable" etc. Then why
  would images that are permitted to be used only in userspace be tolerated?
