answer lies in even more information towards our user
base. Users of Wikimedia projects, I think, just don't *get* the
*free* part for most. It's just a cool thing they do, upload their
pictures for Wikipedia...

I'd suggest a questionnaire or a wizard-like sequence of questions and optional
answers which results in suggestion of which license (if any!) best suits the author's
will. I've seen something similar here:
http://wiki.creativecommons.org/images/4/49/Choose_license_popup.png (accessible from
here:
http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Web_Integration_Guide)
For instance:
* I declare I am the original author of the image. Y/N
** I allow commercial uses of my work. Y/N
** I allow modifications of my work. Y/N
*** I require attribution. Y/N
**** I require further distributions being released under the same conditions. Y/N
Good side is that people will make more informed decisions.
Bad side... this will reduce the number of uploads...

That Idea is great! (Lupo, do you hear me?:) We could add that to the
[[Commons:Upload]] form as the poing "I am uploading the Image the first
time" (I hope someone programms such a JS-script)
