As for checking usage, in obvious

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.
