Forum:Is there a way to request or do mass deletion of unused images?

Hello, I am getting around to sorting images on my wiki from previous uploaders but many of them I do not need as the site which they are from are contains many many images for one item, it is rather overwhelming, I found an easier solution to displaying images for articles. So, must this task be done manually or can a bot be requested, and if possible what would I need to do in order to complete this? -- Bunai82 (talk) 04:36, May 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * Pretty sure it would have to be done manually, but it could be sped up by making it something all admins work together on. --W H  (Talk) 05:18, May 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * It would probably be faster to do it manually but if you want a bot to do it, compile a list of the images you need deleted and then talk to Grunny, who helped me out when I needed a bot.--


 * If you have the unwanted images categorized in a seperate category or if you want to get rid off ALL the unused images listed in Special:UnusedFiles on your wiki, I could run my bot to do it, provided you would give the bot account admin rights. I'm sure other users on the forum are also familiar with bots, so there's no need to call a higher authority such as Grunny for such a simple task ;) Sovq 07:09, May 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * Be careful with the Special:UnusedFiles : as it also contains favicon and the wiki logo.


 * Yup, you're right.
 * Wiki-background
 * Favicon
 * Wiki-wordmark
 * All the images used via MediaWiki:Wikia.css, MediaWiki:Wikia.js, MediaWiki:Common.css, MediaWiki:Common.js, MediaWiki:Monobook.css and MediaWiki:Monobook.js
 * which are not used by a regular wiki markup call somewhere on the wiki also need to be somehow marked. Sovq 07:53, May 9, 2011 (UTC)
