No, tagging is different. GerardM blogged about this with the example of
horse. You can tag a photo as being of a horse by putting it in the
horse category, but in no time it will be filed under some subcategory of
horse. There are relatively few images in the top horse category.

We're talking strictly about copyright here. If not trademark that are
too simple to be copyrightable would be considered but they are not. The
reason the logo would become unacceptable on Commons is based on copyright.

You cannot crop a minor trademark element, eg. logo, incidentally
located within a free photographic image and upload it to Commons as
a free use instance of that trademark / logo.

I cannot see the point of raising questions about how Commons works here
rather than on Commons.
All of these points have been raised before and discussed on the village
pump.
Other threads on this list were argued to be about multiple projects, this
is not.

Perhaps because on Commons village pump, non-regulars, interacting
politely and civilly, are harassed, abused and also blocked without cause.
Perhaps because the discussion system at Commons is broken, and
participation there is oftentimes a complete waste of time.

That's true of most project-specific discussions, but in this case, I
don't think the answer to Commons isn't open to policy discussions
is Go start a policy discussion on Commons.
As long as Commons is meant to be a repository for the whole movement,
I think it is fairly topical here.

Pretty much. We use minute sub-sub-sub-categories because Boolean
arithmetic on categories used to be unfeasible; now it's feasible, but
we don't do it because that's not the convention. So it would require
convincing the Commons

You are a regular. I was describing unfriendly behavior of the

who are directed to Commons by WMF staff to get their images removed,
