--- Comment #14 from Erik Moeller <[email protected]> ---
It wouldn't be, but one step at a time. Separating out the non-attribution
content from {{Credit line}} seems like the first step to make licensetpl_attr
actually usable in some cases. 

The aforementioend example
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:(Boletus_edulis).jpg is problematic for
other reasons. It uses the {{Attribution}} template, which denotes a
non-copyleft license (!) in the "permission" field, in combination with the
CC-BY-SA and GFDL licenses , which _are_ copyleft. 

It looks like the author intended to use {{Credit line}} and would have been
better off to use neither and just specify the author correctly. These
templates create a lot more confusion than they solve, IMO, but let's sort
through this mess and see if they're supportable.

I left a comment regarding the {{Credit line}} machine-readable metadata here:
