- Comment - Needs copyright verification. According to [1], media uploaded to the site is indeed under Create Commons, but it is restricted to non-commercial use which is not accepted. Permission is needed from the person who posted the image on the blog (email address was given). Also, I don't think it meets the size requirements (only 800px).

- File deleted at my request, was a user submitted photograph not covered by UCB's CC arrangement (only staff images). Also, even staff images are for noncommercial use only. Photograph was by "Kimberly", whose email was - correct me if I'm wrong - not given, so I'm doubtful of the possibility that permission can still be obtained. Links are [2] for the image and [3] for the copyright status. Papa Lima Whiskey 2 (talk) 21:19, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
