No FOP in France. FunkMonk (talk) 19:27, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

I'm retired out of Wiki, but what is the connection between my works and the "no FOP" ? : I'm not a grreaaat aaartist with copyrights. I'm only a science mediator (see here [1]) and a not creative illustrator provider for the Natural History Museum of my town (see here [2]). My works ARE NOT ART. This are only some palaeontological restorations, and any restauration is not a creative work, but must thereby being in order to stay within the limits of what is allowed by researchers at the time it is made, and must necessarily be inspired by other pictures already scientifically proved. If one does not understand this process of « conjecturally reconstituted being » (whose most impressive examples are the « real size Dinosaurs » sitting proeminently in the gardens or in the front square of various Museums, or else prehistorical Hominidae presented in dioramas by many Museums), this one will consider as « inaccurate » and/or as a « copyviol », the whole of the artist's views, of the computer-generated images, of the volumic reconstitutions, and Paleontology, Archaeology or Naval history will be deprived of all its iconography intended for general public, apart from the scientific pictures in specialized magazines, that will evade this iconographical « cleaning », possibly concerning even some great masters as Mauricio Antón, Dimitri Bogdanov, Zdeněk Burian, Heinrich Harder or Charles R. Knight, as says one of my collegues. --Spiridon Ion Cepleanu (talk) 19:39, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

This is a sculpture in France. See: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Freedom_of_panorama#France FunkMonk (talk) 19:43, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

Just for understanding... Postulate that this person is not a scientist but an artist : hasn't he the permission to photograph and upload his own model ? --Amélie Pataud (talk) 13:29, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

"Historic model of the Natural History Museum of Toulon (France)." So hardly selfmade. FunkMonk (talk) 14:49, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

Hmmmm... I speak French and I called yesterday this Natural History Museum [3]. This Compsognathus model is "historic" because the first version were wrong (two fingers on the forelegs). This user (his Wiki pseudonym it's his real name) works really as provider in this Museum, who moved five years ago in a new location, and during this time he made or correct a lot of pictures & models. I look also his uploaded images and he have some derivative drawings and images, too close to his sources of inspiration, and he made many download or permission errors. But this ones are, in the time, progressively deleted. Do the best, --Amélie Pataud (talk) 21:07, 3 September 2016 (UTC)
