I'm a bit frustrated right now at a user who is uploading scads of duplicate images, with no links to verify his "public domain" claims, and claiming some as "public domain" but also saying use must be non-commercial. Of course, it can't be both, not to mention that LT is a commercial site.

Ordinarily, I'd leave a private comment. But I can't, because it's a private library that doesn't allow comments.

This is rather infuriating! He'll probably keep uploading them, having no idea why they've been removed, and there's no way to tell him. And the rest of us will have to keep flagging them.

I've thought of leaving a message as a disambiguation notice on the various author pages, but that seems to be misusing that field.

Aaarrggghh!!!

Rant over.

If you wanted to, you could always contact him via the webpage he provides. :)

He's a paid member though - so hopefully eventually he will dig around and figure out to check the quarantine area and come here for explanation.

He does state that he is the copyright holder on this one:

so maybe he will figure out what is wrong with the others.

Which is why I didn't flag that one.
