To be fair, you were asked to tag them on December 16th, 2004.

Seems like plenty of warning to me.

it says
Hi! Thanks for uploading the following image:
▪ Image:DjeDje.jpg
▪ Image:Dune.JPG
I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you
add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if
you release it under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{fairuse}}
if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this
means, just let me know at my talk page where you got the images and
I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much. [[User:Poccil|Peter O. (Talk,

P.S. You can help tag other images at User:Yann/Untagged_Images.
Thanks again.
To be fair, the above looks like an automated message, so it doesn't
actually state that fair use tags are acceptable on user pages.
I think you should not play on words if you were fair.
A year ago, fair use was authorized, with no mention if it was
authorized in the encyclopedic content or in the user page.
Amongst the two untaggued pages listed above, one was a picture of my
daughter and labelled as such. It was clearly not meant for encyclopedic
space.
Ah, I see what you are saying. Yes it looks like policy was changed in
