Feature summary :
CommonsMetadata should add metadata like creator, copyrightNotice, creditText to JSON-LD when possible.
Use case(s) :
Images on Commons are missing some metadata in JSON-LD. Most of the time those missing information are already ready to use (written inside Template:Information and parsed by CommonsMetadata), but it is not machine-readable as it is not written in any metadata format.
Since CommonsMetadata already do the same with licenses (read from license template, parse them, and write them into JSON-LD), and the Template:Information parser is already in place, it should be trivial to add the missing metadata into JSON-LD.
Benefits:
- Make information accessible by other parties (e.g. Google Images)
