When challenged about unsourced images, later found to be downloaded from flickr et al, the single purpose account, User:Chadani, replaced the images in articles eg.. (Automated vandalism report was removed and ignored). Images: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:2660385237_bd28b28e74(2).jpg; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:2660385237_bd28b28e74.jpg

 * Continues to upload and insert images that are poached from Flickr. Unresponsive to requests too supply source, pattern of behaviour in contributions suggests the user is unconcerned (or unaware) of disruption to document and community. cygnis insignis 15:25, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 * The second one was a crystal-clear picture of the Perth skyline with neither identifying information nor EXIF data which would have indicated the circumstances in which the photo was taken. He claimed when questioned that his uncle Charlie is a photographer, but failed to justify any further and it became necessary to have the image deleted as I doubt that one was even from flickr (would likely have been a copyrighted work).
