I TOOK THE PICTURES - they are mine and mine alone - No copyright infringement - Willi Gutmann

This is quite the bizarre process !

The Shiawassee River Heritage Water Trails exists for all to see, touch, and feel. It is not a made up thing. The trail was created with the sweat, blood, and hard work of 100's of people, endorsed by the DNR, DEQ, of Michigan.

The pictures came off of my camera - a Waterproof Pentax Optio Wpi -

This is PUBLIC information.

Newspaper articles have been written about it.

What is it going to take to get this information out to the public ?

I created the content - if a sentence came from another website I wrote, authored, etc. so be it - they are my words, my ideas, my thoughts

There will be no deletion of my work

It was my picture - I signed up as WaterWarlock on Waymarking - it was my GPS data that was submitted - Willi Gutmann

Good news
According to discussion at Media copyright questions, it seems to me as though you are free to give your pictures to both Groundspeak (waymarking.com) and Wikimedia (though, again, I am not a lawyer, etc.). Happy editing, Cnilep (talk) 21:05, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
