Specifically, I came across [[:File:Shiver Snowfield Mirrored.png]]. It has both {{tem|personal-image}} and {{tem|not-unused}} as tags. I couldn't find where the file was linked to. It looked abandoned. I tagged it with {{tem|delete}} anyways. {{user|Henry Tucayo Clay}} disagreed with my tag and promptly removed it. It got me thinking about having an additional parameter specifying where exactly the image is being used. Any image with {{tem|not-unused}} without specifying where the file is linked to is subject to an investigation where the file is being linked to. If nothing is found, the image is subject to deletion. Additionally, this parameter can be used to check if the image is still being URL-linked periodically. This should help people digging through [[Special:UnusedFiles]].

If nothing is found, the image <s>is subject to deletion</s> needs its last known owner to be alerted that the image needs action taken.
