Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Kenwood Academy. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Flickr pics

Several of the images you are using come from Flickr and were uploaded by Brule Laker. Is that you? Zagalejo^^^ 05:33, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

yes that's me , so why are my images being removed?! XHolmes (talk) 05:56, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

I sent a message to the Flickr account. Could you please reply to that? We need to make sure that the images are being used with permission. Zagalejo^^^ 06:49, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

I have received a reply from Brule Laker. He says he doesn't know XHolmes. Zagalejo^^^ 00:15, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
