'''Operator:''' {{User5|Rybec}}

'''Bot's tasks for which permission is being sought:'''
Sometimes when files are transferred from Flickr by a bot, the tags on Flickr lead the bot to add inappropriate categories. For example, [//commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:374_gnuckx_Isola_Bella-Taormina-Messina-Sicilia-Italy-castielli_CC0_HQ_(4276898847).jpg&oldid=90130274 this photo of some rocks in shallow water] was given the unhelpful categories
[[:Category:Commons|Commons]],
[[:Category:Facebook|Facebook]],
[[:Category:Flickr|Flickr]],
[[:Category:Google|Google]],
[[:Category:News|News]],
[[:Category:Pic|Pic]],
[[:Category:Wallpaper|Wallpaper]],
[[:Category:Wiki|Wiki]],
[[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and
[[:Category:Photographs|Photographs]]. Mass importation of files causes a need for mass removal of categories, which is what this request is for.
