Yes, it would be nice if the bot messages included this week's rationale. This would help its public relations a *lot*.
I strongly agree. I suspect that the message is light on instructions because it doesn't want to tell people what to do to keep the image - it's a 'show you care enough to keep it by researching what you need to do' kind of thing ...
However, as I noted before, the actual damage is negligible - most of the images are found on the Internet, and any that aren't can be undeleted. You're bringing this up - have you found images that needed recovery?
AFAIR once or twice, but I'm worried about its effect on articles that aren't as well watched.
