The benefits of keeping old data around that you currently see no use for, is that in the future you may want to use the data for some purpose, after all. And data storage is cheap. That being said, I have no objection to deleting them. I'm not sure anyone would notice if they just go. If

If the factors are now tackled then it can be taken one step forward and it's a good option. On Sat, 8 Dec, 2018, 21:06 Alex Perez Assuming there _was_ a resistance factor is probably not a good idea :) > I'm not really sure why it matters, even if there was one, either. > > Anmol Mishra >

I would like to ask If these images are from 2010-2012, why weren't they deleted earlier? I'm asking this to get the resistance factors that were imposed earlier on deletion in maybe 2016-current. On Sat, 8 Dec, 2018, 10:33 James Cameron Yes. > > Harms are misdirection of users and filesystem

G'day. I agree that they should be removed. On Sat, Dec 8, 2018, 10:33 AM James Cameron Harms are misdirection of users and filesystem size. Any backlinks to these images (maybe on our wiki) will also have to be updated / removed. Thanks Rahul Bothra
