The 11 remaining files generated warnings that the files already exists on Commons, see paste.

Since the filenames are the same I would guess that they were actually uploaded as part of the same run. So if 10-11 images are missing then it must be some others.

There were 611 image files on the external hard drive and 614 rows in the metadata document. When I uploaded the 10 first auto-uploaded images I _copied_ the image files, instead of moved them, so they should raise a warning each of them.

So there are 611-604=7 images unaccounted for. Not a biggie but do we know why they were not uploaded? Were there any images that didn't get renamed?
