We had this discussion before in some thread. Identifying someone with a documented id-tag such as the numbering at iafd is as much an id as one that declares her to be Guinevere Fairfax on the evidence that similar pics document Guinevere getting 2nd price at a marrow growing competition of the Women's Institute in Bedfordshire in 1993.

In fact, I have this any day over our "Heidi at CCC" style of ids that use random forenames used in magazines for pictorials (apparently on the grounds that some mods like these magazines).

Ultimately, what matters to most people is an id via which "more material" can be found. That is not often the case with "Unknown Female 123", but sometimes it is, and the documented id tag gives it a chance.
