Description

It would be of great help to us commons admins if we could mass delete images.
There are a number of people who upload mass amount of copyrighted material such
as anime to commons and it is very hard to deal with it with the existing one by
one deletion tool.

The ability to delete 20 or 50 uploads of a user at a time would be most helpful.

Isn't this what you're looking for? I know it's not enabled by default on WM wikis, but I know it exists and
works.

http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/Nuke/

Would it be possible to enable it if it works. I'd like some verification that this is the tool I am looking for before putting forward a request to get it enabled.

See [[mw:Extension:Nuke]]. It is currently installed on Meta, but I'm not sure if you're a sysop there.

I am an admin in commons. This tool would be more useful in commons than on meta.

I am very familiar with that fact. But you said that you had no clue what he meant by Nuke. I was giving you examples of Nuke being used because that is what you asked for in comment 2.
