Thanks Brion. If there's some way to make a list of external images and pages they were used on, I'd be happy to upload the ones we need & have the right to use.

Could you make a list for the German wikipedia, too, please? Another thought: it would be very nice to have a possibility to see which images are available in which wikipedia and have some better mechanism for exchange than saving locally and uploading in the other.

Was the original intent of the ban to disable also local images referenced by : http://www.wikipedia.org/upload/...
If so, are they included in the list of external images ?

There shouldn't be any such remaining; that is, they should all have been long since converted to [[Image:foo]].

Should be.

User Windt has posted two (so far) copyvios, PInk (singer) and Zero Mostel. since it's a registered usernam I can't block. i'm about to log off, so can someone else keep an eye out?

I came upon this 6 days after Tarquin posted it, but there was still an item that was missed: [[Toni Braxton]]. (I just mention this for those that might assume that they should ignore a message like this 6 days after it was posted.)
User Windt appears to be same as anonymous user 161.114.1.185, who also made two apparently useful edits at the same time: fixing [[October 7]] and [[October 8]] so that Braxton's birthday is correctly recorded, at least according to the copied biography. (I just mention this for those that might assume that copyright infringers aren't interested in improving Wikipedia.)
