Picking it up wont reverse the damage that's already done, so I would have just left it for the owner to pick up. If you pick it up you risk the same thing happening to it again and doing more damage, which I don't think the owner would appreciate :/
I would have left it. I've been riding for all of 5 minutes and have the sense to take a squashed can in my panniers (specifically for parking in spots like that) so I wouldn't bother with the possible aggro from picking up someone elses bike when I think it was their own fault.
I’m not judging anyone else and understand the reasons why others would deal with the situation differently from me, but I can honestly say that I would have taken the risk and lifted up the fallen bike and found a more secure footing for the side stand. And the same for the other upright bike. I believe that I cannot expect society to change and become more caring and less selfish, if I’m not prepared to stick my neck-out and take an active role in bringing about that change myself. Has got me into trouble in the past, I must admit.

I would have picked it up and tried to move it somewhere safer.
Unless it was leaking fuel (being close to a kids play area) I would have left it as picking it up you may cause more damage e.g. slipping and dropping it again.
Last year my bike dug in and fell over luckily on grass & no damage, but we did think what would have happened if it had been parked next to one or more bikes. A message came over the tannoy at the event so we legged it back to the bike.
