 * ✅. I also found another instance of copyvio and dealt with it. --JorisvS (talk) 10:29, 31 January 2013 (UTC)


 * [[Image:Pictogram voting support.svg|20px]] No copyright concern. Material PD or appropriately licensed for use.

It was not a copyright issue. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 20:43, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
