I have removed yet another copyright violation from the article that you have uploaded to Commons, this one (as you very well know), copied from Knight's own website. If you add any more copyright-violating images to Wikipedia, you will be blocked from editing. Black Kite 08:53, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Blocked

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for persistent deliberate insertion of copyright violating photographs, causing disruption both here and at Commons. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.
