I don't see what the problem was with the way I cited this image's copyright. I clearly stated this file was uploaded originally to Wikimedia commons, and that it was licensed under the GFDL 1.2. The person who uploaded this file explicitly stated that images uploaded to Wikimedia commons were under this license. Why would I have had to go find this image somewhere else on the web and make another statement about his licensing conditions? He released the file under the GFDL on Wikimedia. If, for example he released the image into the public domain and then elsewhere on his personal site he had a different license, he still released that other image into he public domain
