Description

Tracking bug for problems with showing the correct license / attributing the authors for some piece of content.

The cornerstones of attribution issues in MediaWiki are T4994 and T29629 (plus T27624). The main page on the topic is https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Files_and_licenses_concept

This is not for attribution/copyright of *code*: see Software-Licensing for that.
