"Quoting
This is an icon of copyrighted computer software. It is believed that the 
exhibition of icons
to illustrate or identify the computer software in question
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by 
the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,
qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of 
this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See 
Wikipedia:Fair use and Copyrights.
To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as 
described on Wikipedia:Image description page, as well as the source of the 
work and copyright information."

"qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law" Wikipedia Commoms 
don't allow "fair use", and I don't know why.

Wikipedia Commoms store all files uploaded from the Wikipedia in Portuguese 
(and in other languages but English, I guess).
I'm updating the page to match with its English version. Some consistency 
between different languages is always good, furthermore, the old version was 
totally messed up.

And while we are here, I call all <strike>translators</strike> localizators to 
do the same (update the Scribus entry in Wikipedia).

Thank you.
