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.
