Explanation edit

I checked the images in Category:Media without a source as of 15 October 2016 nominated by User:Jcb as well as the files tagged with no source at 15 October by Jcb, but already converted to a DR. From the total of 38 images in Category:Media without a source as of 15 October 2016 24 were tagged by Jcb (see below), an additional 13 were already transformed to a DR or consensus was reached to keep them, totalling at 37 tags. From these 13-14 or 35% has a source provided on the file (but in the wrong place). 9 files (24%) were clearly ok, which could be found out only from their file description. 19 further images would have been better suited for a deletion request, which likely will result in keeping some additional files. Only for 9 files (24%) i agree with the use of the no-source template, 2 of those are very likely (and recent) copyvios, 4 of those are with the same issue from the same user. Note that all these evaluations/comments are personal and others could well disagree for individual cases or structurally with my comments. Also note that some of these files are amongst the most difficult cases with multiple issues combined (which makes me argue for DR's). Also note that I put in an average of 4-5 minutes to investigate files after somebody already looked at them, investing so much time for all images is not something that I expect to be reasonable.
