[Wiki Loves Monuments] Advice about what to do with a troll? participant

2012-09-15 Thread Racso
I'm having a bit of trouble with a really weird (troll?) participant. He has uploaded some valid photos to the contest, but also lots of really weird and invalid stuff (for example, a photograph of a dead rat found in a park [the park is a monument, so let's take some close-up details of it!]).

Platonides, your example won't work. You may just give the hard disk (and the crank for giving it some juice :-) ) to an inhabitant. She is not an Italian citizen, and she is not in Italy: therefore international laws apply, not Italian one. The pics may be printed at leisure. ciao, .mau.
