One solution suggested would be to do this using the toolserver, the only trouble is that to do so would require user authentication - which is not permitted by the rules.
No, the trouble is that we don't have the deleted images on the toolserver. In fact, we don't have any images. Or article text, for that matter. We only replicate meta-data.
But checking if an image was deleted, and for what reason, doesn't require admin privileges. Just look at Special:Log. You need to know the images name, of course, but you would need to know that anyway. *That* seems to real trouble to me. MD5-sums for all uploaded files would be sooo nice...

It is Bug 5763, filled a year ago. However, as we will use FileStore, no need to rewrite it before, as well we don't need to create multiple accounts, we will have SUL... Oh, well, at least if Brion doesn't get a girlfriend.
