I got further (not too serious) ideas:

What about creating two databases? (Two categories of objects.)
One for objects sent by non-registries,
and one for well maintained, authentic objects.
Peoples could send objects to the level1 database, and registries
could move the correct ones to level2. Level1 objects older than
6 months will be automatically and silently deleted.
Level2 objects should be updated at least once a year, otherwise
a warning message goes to the maintainer registry.
After a certain period forgotten level2 objects go back to level1.

All current object is on level1.
