This one is A-OK, I believe.

All my uploads were deleted for no stated reason

My personal guess is that the lack of sourcing on those posts is a major factor. I went through your deleted posts and counted 9 out of 14 as having either a non-web source or a completely blank one, which in my limited experience causes a hit to approvability.

post #10841086, for example, strikes me as appeal-worthy, but I don't know where it came from. Even the page for the artist tag is empty.

I looked through some of your deleted uploads, and I think the lack of sourcing and tagging may be a major factor.

Some posts did not seem to meet the 20+ tag expectation, and some had no source listed at all. Quality may also be an issue in some cases, but tagging and sourcing are things anyone can improve, so I would recommend focusing on those first.

Even if an image is borderline in terms of quality, proper tags and a clear source can help a lot with approvability.

Wait, this statement is confusing to me. I could have sworn that on multiple occasions I've seen Approvers state that an image's tags are unrelated to whether or not it gets approved.

It's true that tagging is not related to whether the post gets approved. But the sourcing of the post does, I usually skip sourceless posts and bad sources.
