Probable copyright violations
editYour uploads of a number of images of 3d printed skeleton and bone replicas appear to be the work of at least three people who are given name checks. From this I guess that you, the uploader , do not own the copyright. Wikipedia and Wikimedia take copyright violation issues very seriously and there is formal process for donating copyright to Wikimedia. Please can you confirm in full detail exactly to whom the copyright of these images belong and then update the meta data on Commons appropriately. +A number of them, whatever their copyright status, seem very ill suited to the article where they have been inserted and I regret that several may be deleted very shortly.

- Hello user Velella--
- We're a scholarly non-commercial photo group with the purpose of putting useful images on Wikipedia. All member-photogs understand that and all give copyright to NelsonExpression and then give it up to PD from there. We use the one account for uploading since there's only one experienced Wikipedian in the group. Just as if Magnum Photo or Time Magazine or UPI were the account, they'd still identify their original photographers though controlling the member images. There's nothing commercial or "for profit" going on: it's a non-profit, no money wanted, educational activity. It feels like you've targeted our account and are just "being mean" at this point. Please, what do you mean by "self-cite" in your removal of an image from Recycling? Readers likely wouldn't know there even ~are~ medical education anatomical models being made from recycled plumbing pipe waste before seeing that image of ours. Why make Wikipedia have less usefulness, less information? Could you please stand down? Just for the record, it's not a 3-d printed skeleton; it's cast (solid) recycled PVC.
