:*The hook is interesting and sourced (AGF for the offline source, of which no copies apparently exist in my country) and the article is well written, but I'm pretty sure that File:Isladeflores.jpg is a copyright violation - recent images that are smaller than is typically for the results of digital cameras and lack metadata can't be assumed to be legit, especially when they're aerial photos uploaded by someone with no history of any other contributions. File:Mayapan_Castillo.jpg also lacks full metadata, but appears to have been scanned in from a film photo by an editor with a long history of legit contributions so should be OK.

- The hook is interesting and sourced (AGF for the offline source, of which no copies apparently exist in my country) and the article is well written, but I'm pretty sure that File:Isladeflores.jpg is a copyright violation - recent images that are smaller than is typically for the results of digital cameras and lack metadata can't be assumed to be legit, especially when they're aerial photos uploaded by someone with no history of any other contributions. File:Mayapan_Castillo.jpg also lacks full metadata, but appears to have been scanned in from a film photo by an editor with a long history of legit contributions so should be OK.

- What about now? - I've swapped it for another aerial photo, although I can't find any metadata for that either, but it's an old photo (2004), probably scanned, and by a user who does have a history of contributions. Thanks, Simon Burchell (talk) 09:11, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
