File source problem with File:Joe_McCracken_Photo_cropped.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Joe_McCracken_Photo_cropped.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 09:46, 23 June 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MER-C 09:46, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

McCracken page is plagiarized
I just ran a plagiarism check comparing your 11 March additions to the McCracken (surname) to the FTDNA McCracken page cited as a source, and found that the two texts are essentially identical. This represents a clear and blatant violation of the Copyrights policy. As such the text has been removed. Further, a FTDNA community project page is not a WP:RS, so the material should not be restored even if paraphrased, because it is not considered verifiable, one of the pillars of Wikipedia. If you wish to expand the article, you should look for reliable sources, usually published books or journal articles, that address the information you wish to include, and not just web pages of unknown provenance.
