Otherwise, the incomplete tag would be appropriate for those who display a modicum of effort, the "lack of effort is duly noted" for less, and "nuke" tag only for those who explicitly break the rules on creating pages even with images.

You're on to something here.

The {noeffort} and {nuke} tags are pretty insulting. {incomplete} should only be a gentle reminder if some time has gone by and there is no more forward progress on the page. But slapping ANYONE with a {noeffort} or a {nuke} page is essentially telling them "You're EPIC FAIL!" The page should REALLY deserve it before slapping any of these tags on them. If they are truly atrocious then the makers should not be offended and learn from their mistakes. But I fear we drive off noobs who are terrified of being publicly humiliated for screwing up.
