There needs to be a better mechanism to deal with the lack of copyright information provided for images, and the incorrect copyright information that is being added to images as a result of the license drop down box.

Remove the norification requirement and just speedy all untagged images.
I'm inclining this way myself. Commons' shoot-on-sight policy seems to work pretty well at keeping it clean, while on en: the images are being uploaded faster than they are being tagged, so we're falling behind. The untagged images worry me more than the declared fair use ones actually, because we simply don't know what's in there.
