Sorry about that (long response). Again, this was a page with multiple versions
in history, so I performed deletion and undeletion in order to bring about a
split.

You will notice that the page currently has the image which is now at
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jasrasr_userphoto.jpg. If you look
through the deleted history, you will see that version uploaded three times by
User:Jasrasr, all at 80x115 7396 bytes.

Now you will see an upload by MrBillTheThrill at exactly the same resolution
and size as the most recent in the history. I am 85% sure that MrBill did not
mean to upload an old version of that image, and that he didn't. I take my
evidence because a) it would make no sense to do so in light of this edit:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Carrickfergus_Grammar_School&diff=prev&oldid=120379042,
b) I would probably remember it like this, and c) the page on English Wikipedia
is mysteriously not reporting the duplicate on Commons under "File usage",
which it usually does when they have the same hash. I will feel like an idiot
if I'm wrong, but I don't think I am.

Hash value reported: 3710e894f0a9a2f0d9dcbfd990aea07656100461 (per
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=File:Me1.jpg&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=sha1|user|size&iilimit=max)
Correct hash value: 3710e894f0a9a2f0d9dcbfd990aea07656100461 (per
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=File:Jasrasr_userphoto.jpg&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=sha1|user|size&iilimit=max)

I imagine this problem would disappear if someone were to purge the page at
English Wikipedia. I am not going to do that though because I don't want to bug
up the results for everyone else to see.
