There is nothing wrong with RevDel nor Oversight on the french Wikipedia.
Teofilo disagree with a particular use of the RevDel tool by a french admin.
This is an internal community issue. If necessary the community may make a
policy to decide how this tool shall be used. For now this is only Teofilo's
own complaint and is not representative on the french community.

Teofilo did try to discuss this issue with the community. But without
success because he is known for being... controversial.

The issue with credits of images in PDFs seems accurate though. But this
behavior is definitely not part of the specification and was not intended.
So Teofilo should definitely fill in a bug report about it.
