Hi Brynn,

A file which isn't either a) a standard format for the web, print or
linux or b) isn't a format Inkscape can use OR c) could be converted to
a more useful format for the given task

Should be removed / moderated after giving the user the chance to amend
the entry.

There isn't an exhaustive list of formats we would accept, but project
files for other programs is pretty high up on the list of no.

Best Regards, Martin Owens
