Dear Lily,
No problem, I have just unsubscribed from this mailing list. It is the easiest solution for everyone. You can always reach me off-list if you need.
Best, Alexander

Hi Alexander,

I think that I have raised this issue back in September, and at that time Mr. Lodewijk told me that Commons admins are special people who are not supposed to read and check anything. They simply delete an image if they want to do so, while the rest of the community should shut up and comply. I am not sure whether Mr. Lodewijk is going to reconsider his opinion now, but at least it is good to see that others find such behavior of Commons admins detrimental.The language used above is not constructive. It, at the very least, has a tone of accusation. We need to be able to respect each other on this list and I ask you to help us with maintaining a constructive tone here (and everywhere else really).
Thank you.
Lily

OK, so in this case the information was apparently removed <https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:%EB%B4%84%EC%9D%B4_%EC%98%A8_%EC%88%98%EC%9B%90_%ED%99%94%EC%84%B1.jpg&diff=prev&oldid=230157217>by someone unrelated to the author - very odd - and deleted by an admin without further checking. I restored the image on the list of winners. The general question for best practices stands though - especially given the deletions that sometimes happen with regards to freedom of panorama. It would be nice if we could at least catch those earlier. Best, Lodewijk 2017-01-30 17:17 GMT+01:00 Ciell Wikipedia <ciell.wikipedia@gmail.com <mailto:ciell.wikipedia@gmail.com>>: I restored the image, the info still there in the history. Ciell 2017-01-30 17:07 GMT+01:00 Lodewijk <lodewijk@effeietsanders.org <mailto:lodewijk@effeietsanders.org>>: People can also upload images manually. As I'm no longer an admin, I can't check the history of the file - and there was no page with deletion request created. The recent file I noticed was 봄이_온_수원_화성.jpg Best, Lodewijk 2017-01-30 17:06 GMT+01:00 Alexander Tsirlin <altsirlin@gmail.com <mailto:altsirlin@gmail.com>>: The WLM upload wizard adds the cc-by-sa-4.0 license automatically. Therefore, it is hard to imagine that a WLM photo had no license. It rather means that someone removed the license, and then someone else deleted the file. Was it the case here?

I would be curious to hear some best practices that countries have implemented to check for formalities. For example, I noted that one image from Korea was deleted apparently because the licese was missing. I'm guessing that this is something we could check for semi-automated. Are there countries that do this? I do some manual checking for the top-50 internationally, just before we enter the final round. But it is very hard to scale that, and it eats up a lot of time. Any other ideas?
