Dellis Cay
[edit]Dellis Cay is a 560-acre private island located in the Turks and Caicos Islands Archipelago. This island sits south of Parrot Cay and north of Pine Cay. Dellis Cay is located a few miles from Providenciales and accessible by a 20-minute boat ride. This private island got its name from the Dellis family who lived on the island and earned their living by way of sponge farming in the 1950's. The Mandarin Oriental Hotel is expected to open up a property in the middle of 2010.
The islands of the Turks and Caicos Islands are a British Dependant Territory found in the Caribbean. This chain of islands are situated just 575 miles southeast of Miami, 30 miles south of the Bahamas, and 90 miles north of the Dominican Republic.

- I fixed it. Those references aren't much better as they're mostly tourism boards and such. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 21:09, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Image permission problem with Image:Dellis Cay Aerial View.jpg
[edit]![Image Copyright problem](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Dellis Cay Aerial View.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media 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 GFDL 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 did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image 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:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the image's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image 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 uploaded by following this link. Images lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — neuro(talk) 02:41, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
