I'm heading off on a bit of a tangent here, but if you were a publicist, webmaster or something, would you hand out free images to someone with a silly sounding name and a gmail account claiming to be a Wikipedia editor ?
If we're going to ask for free photos, surely we can get people set up with a Wikipedia or Wikimedia e-mail address so they don't sound like a stalking psychopath.

People who want to use publicity shots on Wikipedia to replace free-content fan-provided shots tend to use this kind of argument, which is inaccurate.
I think that Richard Schiff photo is a strong argument in favour of securing all the good publicity shots we can!
Indeed. I missed out the part about 'non-free fair use' above. I'm all in favor of people providing their official publicity shots under a free license!
