Arguing otherwise is just looking for a webhost. > The thing that has changed is the fact that this was decided by the community, by admins who have earned their rights in a community vote, and according to policies. Take e.g. <http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:F%C3%A9licien_Rops_-_Sainte-Th%C3%A9r%C3%A8se.png>. That image is a 19th century artwork, a drawing, from an important artist. It was uploaded to Commons in 2006 and never questioned. But Jimbo didn't file a deletion request, he didn't even put a speedy delete. He just deleted it with a generic message given as reason. Two times the deletion was reverted by longstanding Commons admins who wanted to uphold Commons policy about deletions and two times Jimbo deleted it again, with the same generic reason. At the moment the file is again undeleted by a third Commons admin. (Jimbo is not online at the moment to overturn that decision.)
I think this is a really obvious example how Jimbo breaks policies and why large parts of the Commons community are upset.
