(This is mainly because I remember nominating hundreds of images for deletion BEFORE the audit, notifying the admins, putting them on the Pages for Deletion page, and STILL having them not deleted.)

I apologize, everyone, for my recent lack of participation in the audit.  I'm trying to find a time to do these two sections.  I also have a question, and I apologize if the answer is facepalmingly obvious.  Are the admins going to try to clear out these hundreds of files by themselves, or are the mods/ trustworthy users going to be temporarily given the deletion right (Erry permanently, maybe), to aid in this process?  I only say this because of the great magnitude of the deletion.  Finally, how will moving jpgs over to pngs be handled?  {{The Inexistentsig}} 20:26, 24 May 2011 (EDT)

:It actually won't be very difficult to have the admins just use the "What links here" of the Delete template and smite every image in there. We have Kryten, Neumannz, me, and Xion fairly regularly. That doesn't even include the other admins who idle the IRC, such as Maggosh and Hexedmagica. As for moving .jpgs to .pngs, I think that a user would just download/save the .jpg image and then resave it as .png, or find the original image and save that as a .png.
