Also, I was thinking... should we have a tag (probably {{flickr}}) to mark images that have been taken from Flickr? That would make the FlickrLickr images a lot easier to find, and I think that having a consistent template for information like original image URL, original uploader, etc. would be a good idea.
Yes, feel free to give it a try. The important thing, I think, is to keep it simple so it remains pleasant to edit through the FlickrLickr UI. But [...] seems simple enough.
I've created a template {{Flickr}} (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/ Template:Flickr). There's an example up at <http:// commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Bdesham/temp>. It would be nice if the Flickr logo were included, but we can't use fair-use images on Commons AFAIK. Here's the template syntax:
{{Flickr| | photographer = [<user's url> <user's name>] | photographer_location = <location> | title = <title> | description = <description> | taken = <date> | flickrurl = <image url> }}
This seems like it should be reasonably easy to edit with FlickrLickr; if you got really crazy, you could use a text box for each value and have the script assemble them. That's probably overkill, though.
How does this template look?
