Based on discussion with 99of9 at
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:F%C3%A6/BLP_overwrites#Boundary_conditions>
the report has been changed to include editors with up to 1000 edits
on Commons and 2000 edits on Wikipedia. The images list has jumped to
20 from 6, still a small and manageable list for new image patrollers.
A previous minor change was to how often the report runs - checks are
made every 5 minutes now, previously it was every 15.

If you would like to see other improvements, please raise suggestions
on the above talk page and I would be happy to discuss what would be
sensible to include or adapt.
