A NOTE FROM A HUMAN[edit]
Hey. It's clear that you are in some way connected to Eddie Gossage (in fact, you might be Eddie Gossage), and as such I'm sure you're frustrated by having all these images deleted.
The thing you need to understand is: copyright is complicated. Just because you own the photos, does not mean you own the copyright to those photos. It's pretty clear that they're all from widely different sources, so even if you could claim that some of them were yours by virtue of work-for-hire, that wouldn't apply to all of them.
If you have questions about how you can properly upload the photos, feel free to ask - after all, the whole ethos of Wikipedia is sharing information, and that includes explaining stuff about how the system works. DS (talk) 18:32, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
