copyvio cases, it's a nice thing to do, but IMHO not the admin's responsibility -- someone will remove the red link soon enough.
There is some vehement disagreement on this point, though. It does not seem like something that should be left to the whim of the administrator, to me.
What we really need are links on local projects to the deletion log on Commons for the "no such image" pages... there's nothing like a redlink to make people ask "Whoa! What happened to that image?", but unless they can find a reason (cf. the deletion record on Commons saying that something was a copyvio) they're going to get angry.
