In reply to George, I don't think tagging

auto
delete. An administrator making a conscious decision is required, although
some administrators run scripts to delete all images past the deadline.
That
isn't auto-deletion, though, just a call by the admin that all expired
warnings mean images should be deleted.
As long as some admins run those scripts, and some do, the effect is
effectively auto-deletion. How that happens / via what mechanism, the only
thing that matters is that "no human reviews each individual case before it
going poof".
Yes, and I think this is the crux of WJhonson's arguments.
Bots are a
very convenient technique for those who feel overwhelmed by copyvios.
The problem is that solving the problem with toxic pesticides damages
the environment.
