Kate Turner has added code to MediaWiki to load licensing information
directly from the Commons when viewing a local image description page.
What this means is that you can go to, e.g.,
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bild:Aubrey_Beardsley_1.jpg
and get the licensing information for that image from the Wikimedia
Commons without having to "click through."
This has been a highly requested feature for some time.
This will only work for wikis that have been upgraded to MediaWiki 1.5.
See Special:Version of your wiki to see if you have been upgraded already.
The text of MediaWiki:Sharedupload may need to be updated.
Many, many thanks to Kate for making this much requested change.
All best,
Erik
