Sure, here goes

Try http://en.wikibooks.org/User:Graeme E. Smith/Testpage

You can see that it accepts the base document size with no problem

Reduces it to a smaller size, but refuses to expand it to a larger size

Of course I am exagerating this version to the point where it is blurry and all
the mistakes in the original image are visible, but I think that it should be
the Authors choice whether or not to expand an illustration or picture, and how
much.

You might for instance want a blurry picture, to illustrate a point.

If you look at this file in Wikilanguage the third version nearly fills the
screen, but in PDF it is almost exactly the same size as the original. The
point I am trying to make is that for storage reasons pictures of a certain
size are allowed at creative commons, but for display purposes you might want
something a little larger, even if you have to sacrifice some quality to get
it.

I hope this helps.
