Hi again. I take it you're a fellow New Orleanian? Thanks for the photos you've added. Are you familiar with the Wikimedia Commons? If not, I encourage you to check it out, and upload your original photos you're willing to free licence there. This has various advantages, including: The photos can be used not only here on English Wikipedia, but in the projects in other languages too. You can make galleries of additional images to supliment the article, for example as exists for 17th Street Canal. Let me know if I can be of any assistance.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:SYC Burgee.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:SYC Burgee.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 14:56, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
Gulf Yachting Association
[edit]A "{{prod}}" template has been added to the article Gulf Yachting Association, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
