And as a note - when you review the content that users are uploading using Bryan&#39;s bot, the MAJORITY of it is educational content. Nothing &quot;questionable&quot; or too contorversial. <br><br>It seems the biggest problems come from a freedom of panorama, nudity/porn, and celebrity images uploaded to Flickr with incorrect permissions/not the users work/copyright infringement/blahbalhblah. It does appear that there are some users that just upload every bit of free content they can find outside of family photos. <br>
<br>Like Commons, anyone can upload it, but, unlike Commons, no one on Flickr reviews content for appropriateness and copyright correctness.  I suppose we are one step ahead, it&#39;s just irritating when you come across an image&#39;s source and this is what you get:<br>

</div>That was something I noticed the other day. An anon replaced the<br>
infobox image on Veganism with a close-up shot of a woman&#39;s genitals<br>
and a vibrator. I looked to see who had uploaded it and it said Flickr<br>
upload bot. So is there a bot that uploads all cc images from Flickr<br>
indiscriminately?<br><font color="#888888"><br></font></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>Apparently a bot does the work, but a human has to ask for them.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Flickr_upload_bot" target="_blank">http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Flickr_upload_bot</a></div>
