let us see first whether the images in question can be deleted without prejudice for our projects. Chances are that in the vast majority of the cases, they are worthless.

Yesterday there was a user who clearly wants all of his Images yust to have all his Images gone and after we opposed his CSD-request he yust said "My father/sister/whatever took the Image, so its unfree" and we had to delete them all.
He claimed he was the creator of the images when he uploaded them, right? So it becomes "either you were lying to us then, or you're lying to us now" - without any additional evidence, we could simply choose to believe that the uploader is lying now.
We could up the ante and insist that the uploader publish an affidavit giving real name and affirming the original upload claims were fraudulent, and of course being banned forever from all Wikimedia projects. Let's see how many people really want the top Google hit on the name to be a public admission of fraud...
