I choose photos of commercial valued and give a proper feed back why photos were declined, if asked.

how do you decide what has commercial value?

It's a skill learnt by experience, guidelines from company, market trend and intuition.

ROFLMAO -- intuition? really??? what qualifies you over the artist?
what sort of testing do you do to PROVE your decisions are correct? i've always considered LCV the worst reason for rejection - let the market decide

I'd have to disagree with the 'let the market decide' comment. That's how Shutterstock ended up with 350million+ images and pages and pages of dross, sending buyers to different agencies that had a more comprehensive curation process.
Any artist producing reasonable quality images won't be disadvantaged by LCV rejections.

That's how Alamy ended up with 230 million diverse images and creative diversity. Let the buyer decide commercial value only judge by quality of image standards.

Dear All,
I appreciate your time for replying on my post. It is really warming to see how some of you care for new comers here.
And for the rest, there is really no need to take out on me, sorry if I frustrate you with my question, may be this is not the right platform for this type of question then :-( On other hand, you are lucky to have community like this, for reviews there isn't any platform particularly.
Nope! It didn't go to AI
Not eyes or SS either.
The job is still there, being done by someone else. I lost on morality grounds and not accepting new terms :-( Anyway! No point of details.
Still happy to be connecting with you all.
Have a good evening.
Regards from Hungary!
