No he was inforceing them to the letter.
If you shoot someone and then claim self-defense it doesn't make your claim necessarily true.
The claim of copyright enforcement here as a justification for the mass deletion of BJAODN content is laughable.
Moreover, it's a terrible precedent to set.
We've deleted over 100K images under the same set of policies. I think any precedents are likely to have already been set.
Even with the reasonable though highly disruptive project of clearing out badly sourced images there was a real effort to put lots of safeguards on the deletion project.
Not exactly. A8 then G12 always allowed for instant deletion in the case of copyvios.
This was done unilaterally and he is wheel warring against restoration.
Speedies normaly are unilateral and current arbcom precedent is that undeleteing even out of policy deletions is not allowed.
