The name of the site itself is a bit confusing for newcomers who don't take the time to read the "New to SummitPost?" section.
Since ages many new people keep posting mountain pages again and again, thinking that a page is what should indeed be a summit log entry (or trip report in the best case). Instead of raw removal, perhaps there are cases in which elves could show more understanding, and only change the type into TR/Album attached to the concerned mountain. Especially when it contains nice photos or a consequent piece of text.
