This is very wrong as license is not fetched and photographer is only
Fir;
not all people edited that "file" page.
I raised this complaint earlier (in Commons). This is mentioned at EN too

Fwiw, a new PDF exporter is being tested, and looks like it'll be deployed

It might be worth checking (I have not) what attribution is done in the
new exporter. If it's better, then the right fix would be to just deploy
the new exporter ASAP.

been exhaustively tested by the end user base has caused a few headaches
lately ;-).
