[Mediawiki-api] Attribution text for creative commons images on commons

Hi,

What is the best way to programmatically get the attribution text for
creative commons images? I was told that the category containing the license
would contain the attribution text, but found many images dont follow that
process.  Some images, for example, Max_Planck.png have some attribution
requirements buried inside the description - but that is hard to extract and
automate. Any suggestions?

Thanks
Anand
