AHS Sikorsky Prize photo to be deleted from Wikimedia

Hi Mike, I happened to notice that the UofToronto photo (AHS Sikorsky Prize Winning Flight by AeroVelo) you uploaded to Wikimedia has been tagged for removal due to insufficient licensing info, as shown here. It will apparently be deleted on July 20th if the issue is not resolved. You may wish to look into it as the photo is a great one. Man, that helo is ginormous. Thanks and best, HarryZilber (talk) 15:22, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I checked and it looks like it was resolved. Thanks for the note! If I'm wrong, please let me know. BTW, it is *not* a U. Toronto photo. Ginoromous is right! Vertiflite (talk) 04:33, 15 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please review

~~Hi, Verti. Could you please have a look here: Talk:AeroVelo_Atlas#Clarification, and comment if applicable?~~

Thanks. Now, what about;

Also, in regards to your edit here: [1], you commented that "helicopters have Rotors, not Propellers!", but... what about the Eurocopter X3?

Thanks. - thewolfchild 02:38, 15 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

July 2013

Hello, I'm PantherLeapord. I noticed that you recently removed some content from AeroVelo Atlas without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry: I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, you can use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!

The reason for changing the image was clearly stated in the edit summary. I'm confused by why this warning was left. --Onorem (talk) 23:13, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Uber Elevate (October 27)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Robert McClenon was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft has no references.

This appears to be a hoax, but I have not checked and so am not requesting speedy deletion.

This draft has external links in the article body; they are not permitted.

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
