Fellow Animator/Setup Artist,  

These rigs/models are assets that were created by peers and individuals to increase their knowledge, experience, and skills. And from that, the creators have been kind enough to share their work with you.  Please give due credit to them if you are to use any of their assets for your own projects or demos.  

Also, these rigs, models and assets are not perfect, for they were built during the learning process.  If you feel they need improvement, go ahead and improve them and send them back.  Or contact the individuals with your findings.
