File permission problem with File:WisCEL Layout 1.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:WisCEL Layout 1.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NtheP (talk) 19:31, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Professorial language

I have been working with this page to make it sound less like a University journal article and more like something an average non-educator might understand. It is not my intention to change any of the facts about the program. I'd like to get rid of the term "technology-enhanced" because it is vague. It would be nice to be able to report instead what technologies exactly were used, but the article doesn't say. —Anne Delong (talk) 22:45, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thankyou. It was the use of buzz words like these that made me put the advert tag on. So when you are happy, please remove the tag. Op47 (talk) 22:53, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am hoping that by making these changes the page will also no longer be in danger of being removed for being against the following Wikipedia policy:

"Academic language. Texts should be written for everyday readers, not for academics. Article titles should reflect common usage, not academic terminology, whenever possible."

Excessive article length, unencyclopedic tone for a fairly trivial subject

WisCEL is an educational program of the University of Wisconsin–Madison, started circa 2012, which is similar to many other blended learning programs in tertiary education. I don't think this article is intrinsically in danger of notability issues, but it's certainly bloated, largely single-authored, and lacking encyclopedic tone (mostly just paraphrases sources), and has had these issues for about ten years.
