Bug ID: 57320
Summary: Figure out what to do with non-free CC licenses
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: CommonsMetadata
Assignee: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Right now licenses like CC-BY-SA are ignored to avoid MediaViewer showing them
when we have less restrictive licenses. If CommonsMetadata is to be used as an
import tool for Wikidata on Commons, we might have to change that.
One possible solution would be to weight licenses somehow, so API users can
just take the first and be assured that that is the least restrictive one.
Alternatively, the import tools can just ignore the License field completely
(it is derived from other fields, not a primary data source), but then they
need to do parsing on their own.
