New policy / deleted scanlator listings?

Sorry if I missed it, but I can't find any information here as to why certain scans are no longer listed, and which ones have been removed. I'm guessing it's a case of removing groups who scan US-English releases of manga (as one I know who does this - senfgurke2 - has been removed without trace). Would this be correct?
Is this now a permanent policy, and would it be possible to know which groups have been removed?
I'm not going to ask why this has been done - it's your site - but it would have been nice to know that the policy has changed.

Thanks for the link Allez - no wonder I couldn't find it in search: "thing disapear" lol.
So it seems it's always been a rule to disallow English scans, just that some slipped through the gaps and were not reported as breaking the rules.
TBH I missed the part in the FAQ about it too. Perhaps a more prominent position might be an idea for it? I've been a member here for a while and never knew about it because it was only mentioned in the 'how come my release was not approved'? section - which would only be checked if you had a release refused.....
Oh well, question answered.
