Many times it works well. But the procedures also irregularly goes amiss. I also received deletion messages of a pic i had uploaded with a correct license. Some wikimedian had accidently removed the license, making a bot come along and warn me. By pure coincidence i happened to come along at commons - sometimes months go by without me dropping in - and was able to restore the license, protest angainst its deletion, and so on. 7 days is awfully short. One easy thing that can be approved is an email instead of a bot message on a talk page.
But that wont change the self centered attitude of commonists.
