While your contributions are appreciated, I have removed the tributes from this article. They are excessive, go against our undue weight guidelines and violate the spirit of the policy that Wikipedia is not a memorial. If you have any questions, please leave a message on the article's talk page. – ukexpat (talk) 15:19, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just wondering about the copyright status of File:MinarikOfficialFilePhoto.JPG. Is it an official US federal government photo (as opposed to State govt)? You can only release the copyright of it for use on Wikipedia if you are the copyright owner - did you take the photo yourself? We have to be very careful about copyright violations, hence the questions. Thanks. – ukexpat (talk) 15:50, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
