Thread:Support/Change MediaWiki:Exif-copyrighted-false

Please change the value of MediaWiki:Exif-copyrighted-false to Copyright flag not set. The current value public domain is very misleading, since this flag is mostly set unintentionally by image processing software and does not at all signify that the image is public domain! On commons this results in many images where the license chosen by the uploader on the upload page conflicts with the Exif data. We absolutely require a license template on the description page. That template is chosen consciously, the EXIF flag is unknown to most users and should not given undue weight. I was told that this change will have to be performed in the MediaWiki source rather than on translatewiki.
