::The other problem is an operational problem, there are watermarked images out there that exist in no other form or will never be available unwatermarked. Those images can easily have the marks removed. That can't happen if they can't ever make it to the graphics lab and the person can't do it themselves.

*Rd232's latest draft says "uploading of files with visible but relatively unobtrusive watermarks is merely discouraged, not prohibited" but this is in a section called "Unacceptable watermarks" and in the summary at the top, this type of watermark is listed as "not acceptable". Something that is not prohibited is accepted, hence it is acceptable. At least, that's how I'd interpret it. Where it says "continuing to upload media with these watermarks after warnings may be treated as a form of spam, which may lead to contributors being blocked from editing" it is clear and it's an improvement over ''ad hoc'' blocking. However, I think further improvement is possible. I'll write up a different proposal. [[User:Rybec|Rybec]] ([[User talk:Rybec|talk]]) 23:54, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
