Remove the norification requirement and just speedy all untagged images.
I'm inclining this way myself. Commons' shoot-on-sight policy seems
to work pretty well at keeping it clean, while on en: the images are
being uploaded faster than they are being tagged, so we're falling
behind. The untagged images worry me more than the declared fair use
ones actually, because we simply don't know what's in there.
