:{{comment}} Interesting thing put forth here. I had never wondered that the image is not actually deleted. I knew that admins can see it. But it hadn't struck me till now. We can do one more thing about this. Just as for procedure, we can somehow permanently delete all files which have been deleted and stayed deleted for say 5 years or so. (You see, just how offices maintain a hard copy of a file for some years and then they trash it.) but is permanently deleting any file possible? §§[[User:Dharmadhyaksha|Dharmadhyaksha]]§§ {[[User talk:Dharmadhyaksha|T]]/[[Special:Contributions/Dharmadhyaksha|C]]} 11:57, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

:::Oversighters can't delete things - only hide them from everyone who doesn't have "oversight" permission. Developers can do anything. [[User:Rd232|Rd232]] ([[User talk:Rd232|talk]]) 16:02, 22 March 2013 (UTC)
