As always, the solution is more watching of pages...wait, have we gone over that before?
Something I've done in the past and am currently doing is watchlisting the user talk pages of people who used to edit articles on topics I'm interested in. Chances are, since they were editors before me, they uploaded the images that will get tagged, and they won't be able to fix the problem. Nice to know someone else is helping out.
And it's a lot easier than trying to do whatever the purpose of this thread is...

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.
