I have been running this for a while now, i delete all articles upon
request. I get about 1 a week. There has not been any major problem.

Really i am interested only in the non notable articles : Indian
actors and Albanian football players.  Things that the new york times
does not write about and therefore get deleted.

The copyrightvio ones I try and filter out there are tags on the
deletion requests.

We are up to 300k en articles are just launching the other languages.
thanks
