Thanks for a useless link, Fæ. Since I quit OTRS quite some time ago - for what were simply "personality clash" reasons, as-opposed to ability to provide professional support services, that's, ... 'useless'.

As the emails were not a release from the copyright holder, the
photographs are still up for deletion on Commons. I note that the
copyright licence on wikinews may mislead reusers if the copyright
holder of the building has not agreed to unconditional free reuse of
photographs.

From what limited correspondence I can see, deletion of these images is only going to reflect badly (and, that's putting it mildly) on Wikimedia groups/orgs/whatnot.

Can we, *please* have some people running things who're not "nice and fluffy"? Who get things done, rather than doing nothing and offending nobody? I name no names because I'm pretty-sure a lot of people who could meet that 'wish' do not, due to people who put positive PR before meeting the movement's longer-term goals hamstringing them.
