It's also important to note that 95% of the images on the english wikipedia do have tags (although many may be wrong, it's true).
I haven't checked already-tagged images, but new uploads (based on the data at http://mail.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2006-March/ 041534.html) have at least a 40% error rate for tagging.
OK. That is an issue.
Indeed. So the house is almost clean now. It's only the underside of the carpet that's dirty. :-(
Well, that's progress... Having gigantic piles of dirt lining the hallways, and dirt on the walls, and the roof, is worse than having dirt under the carpet. Yes, we need to deal with the dirt under the carpet, too, but we have still made progress.
No, we have just put up signs saying "dirt".
Er, no. If you read this whole thread, we still have about 15,000 signs to put up, and according to Mark Wagner, a lot of the signs are not correct, which is what I assume Ilmari Karonen meant about the dirt under the carpet. Getting good enough signs put up is exactly the problem we are working on right now. Whether we have fair use images or not is a whole other issue. Don't mix it in here, please.

The whole idea of the classification was to then delete 90%+ of it (if you read Jimbo's original comments).
Free encyclopaedia anyone?
