Great. This is also a way to censor user protests... It would have been kind, if the deleted paper bags would have been replaced through a free one (e. g. the one above)... Chaddy (talk) 01:28, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment I'm not convinced that the SVG paperbag is OK, so I have proposed it for deletion: Commons:Deletion requests/File:White paper bag.svg. --Stefan4 (talk) 14:18, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
About 8,500 new pages, mostly images, are created on Commons every day. Commons Admins delete about 1,300 pages every day. Six of us do half of those and the backlog is increasing. Find us more active Administrators and we can pay more attention to individual images. Until we have more help, though, copyvios will be deleted, but replacing them is up to others.
There is also the fact that you, and many others, have put an image on your talk pages for a specific reason. I'm not at all certain that if I were in your shoes that I would want a third party arbitrarily replacing that image with something else.
And, finally, even if you are willing to have me choose a new image, what should that be? As Stefan4 suggests, the svg is almost certainly a DW and therefore not usable.

 Comment Lots of people thought that it wasn't a derivative work and Reinhard Kraasch decided to close the request after only three hours. --Stefan4 (talk) 21:46, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
