Will you ban me? It is not a good idea.
No... I really don't like banning anyone (or I simple can't people I want :P)
Main problem (hidden in the topic), is that:
People uploading copyvio images are not BAD, they are simple not informed well !!
I don't know Spanish, so I can't check it by myself, but I have bad feeling that closing upload on es.wiki was made in tihs way:
OK - we have same politics of licenses as commons, so we can close upload on our wiki.
And now people come to commons, they don't know anything about copyrights/licenses, they are unable to find anything in Spanish language about it, so they do what they think is good...
This assumption is based on another observation:
Lots of uploads are fair use images from en.wiki and images from 'random' webpages.
On pl.wiki we have LARGE and clear instruction: If you don't know what you are doing, don't even think of moving images from en.wiki and web, and I think it works ...
So as said TOR: closing upload is OK, but it must be made with care cause Commons is very very vulnerable project.
