This isn't an argument against the API allowing deletion, but just a
factor pointing out that the dream of fully automated moves should
never be made real. :)
I'm not aiming for a "move everything" automaton, rather for a tool that
can
* list images on a "source wiki" (e.g., all images of a user)
* shows thumbnails and description of each image
* has a checkbox for each image
* and a button "move selected images"
Basically, my "PushForCommons" tool, but pimped ;-)
For example, I remember there's some user (on de, I think) who
uploaded hundreds of images of tractors, which he took during some
exhibition. They all have a similar, complete description. I'd like to
be able to take these and move them all at once, since I know they're
all OK.
