so.. suppose I delete a png sicne there's a superior svg (manually checked) the bot currently delinsk the png from local projects is there a way to tell the bot to relink with the svg? otherwise projects will lose the png unaware that there's a svg replacing it
At the moment that's what will happen. But we can work with Orgullomoore, the bot owner, to fix this up. For example, if you put 'no-orgullobot' in the deletion reason, it won't delink. So when we delete such PNGs, we could just put 'no-orgullobot', and then manually give it a replacement instruction. Or we could invent something new like 'orgullobot-replace:newimage.jpg' . I don't think that will be a big problem.

As far as I know there is no way to include a replace-comment in the deletion reason (yet). But I just noticed that the Delinker is able to replace images through commands. See http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Orgullobot/commands/documentation for the syntax.
