Per Krenair, modules/ve-mw/ui/dialogs/ve.ui.MWMediaDialog.js can pass 'user' in the iiprop to visualeditor-dialog-media-info-meta-artist for GENDER usage.

Change 232523 had a related patch set uploaded (by Alex Monk):
Actually get uploader details when querying media info
I think you misunderstood. What I wrote was:
I think that our code to show the visualeditor-dialog-media-info-artist message is actually broken at the moment due to us not including 'user' in the iiprop list in VE-MW modules/ve-mw/dm/models/ve.dm.MWMediaResourceQueue.js.
We could query user's id in the same way, but not the user's gender, which would be needed to run {{GENDER:}} via jqueryMsg (there would be other problems to solve here as well, such as actually getting an additional parameter to the code which handles the messages - right now we seem to take a single value, and then using the special function to parse it, etc).
This commit will make the message actually get used, but won't add GENDER support.
