Audit which generated a deletion of an asset posted a year ago.

Thanks for all the replys. Please now stop commenting. I cant find how to delete the thread 

Adobe are removing duplicates. We have received official confirmation of this. (On Adobe Stock's Discord server, just a short time ago.) Have a look in your portfolio and you should be able to find these files still online, with different file numbers from the ones that were move to the Not Accepted tab.

It wasn't rejected for that reason so can only assume it was because it was in a private gardens but then so are so many others. I do know what a good quality image is and I am not AI 

Most of the assets that I have seen, and that were rejected by this audit, had quality issues. They should not have been accepted first. That is the "violation".

Having assets accepted by other stock sites does not mean that Adobe needs to accept them here. Most of the assets we have seen that got a quality refusal, have been refused correctly.

Sometimes I resubmit the same file and it gets accepted. Seems a strange vetting process.

That's dangerous if you do that too often. There are different moderators, and some moderators are better at their task than others. That's why now they have decided to do this audit, may be because they got too many complaints from the buyers.

I have just had several rejections of year old images too, with really no helpful explanation.  If they are suspected duplicates I wish they would just say so.  I have 3500 images with Adobe, so it certainly possible I messed that up.  If it's for other reasons, I really want to know why and stop wasting my time submitting images that are going to get rejected.  They mention an "appeals process" in the rejection but I could fine nothing about how one would go about it.    This content has been removed for violating Adobe Stock’s content submission guidelines.

I have exactly the same issue with a frame accepted a year ago now deemed a violation of terms. I've asked for a review (and even offered to submit the raw image). Seems to me that impugning the integrity of long-time contributors is a poor business model ...

Indeed, some inexplicable rejections and deletions are happening right now. Some Contributors have been reporting that the deletions were actually duplicates. Have you checked your portfolio to determine whether the deleted asset was a duplicate? Unless you have a rock solid process for avoiding duplicates, it can happen...
