This isn't like that. The DMCA is when a copyright holder gives reason something on a site should be taken down. This is the step after where the site holders, responding to notification that they're distributing copyrighted material illegally, verify this fact and remove said material.

There's really no requirement that anyone be notified in advance or indeed receive any notification, though I agree an explicit mention of what the known violation was might help make things clearer.

Perhaps I am misreading the intent of your words, but:
The DMCA "needs a reason" because it is the government interfering in the activities of citizens.
When it comes down to brass tacks, this is a case of a private institution acting in the manner in which it sees fit.  No "reason" is necessary.

That being said - I concur with Llorean and will strive to be more explicit in the explanation left in the wiki in the future.


EDIT:  It is not a formal rule, but in the future please do not edit a post to such a degree you remove material quoted in a reply.  That would be a perfect time to add a new post, not modify an existing one.

BdN3504:
With the new themes site up, can i reupload my gigabeat remixes? i have started them from scratch and got the sources for em, nothing's taken directly from the wmp.

soap:
Even before the new site was up I do believe you would be able to upload any theme for which you have rights to redistribute.
