Hello, I'm
John from Idegon. I noticed that you made a change to an article,
Birmingham, Michigan, but you didn't provide a
reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to
include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the
referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on
my talk page. Thank you.

Thank you John! I cited it.
Hello there. I saw that you've been having some trouble with the various photos you tried to upload for this article. The key thing to remember is that the copyright owner of a photo is the photographer of the original photo. So, unless you are the photographer, you cannot claim ownership of the image (or a copy of it, or a modification of it) as your own work and release the image under a free license. Even if you are the photographer, if the image has been previously published it cannot be uploaded to Commons unless it is currently published under a free license.
If you are the photographer of any of the images you wish to upload, Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials explains the procedure for doing so. If you want to request the copyright owner to donate one of their photos, there is a guide at Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. Both can be fairly complex processes. So, after you've read through the guides carefully, if you still have any questions don't hesitate to ask me. You can leave a note on my talk page. Or post your question here. I'll keep your talk page on watch.
On another note, if you have any affiliation with Ms. Silber, either personal or professional, you need to read this page for guidance when editing under those circumstances. Best wishes, Voceditenore ( talk) 06:54, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
