    I'm still trying to figure out this person's motivation for uploading this artists work for no other reason than on principle of it being fair us.

    Oh come on, how about the sheer WTF factor? Like having a sizable set of Lous Wain works on esix of all places.

    I don't like those copypasted license info blocks however, it is not that important and it is in the tags already. I would rather see that on artist's tag wiki page, not on every single post.

    e6 is an archive for anthro and animal related artwork. The fact that his art is being approved and has positive scores should be enough to show that it belongs.

    The tags can be wrong. The point of license_info is to show why they are not. It barely takes up any space. Does it really bother you that much?

    Nah, not really, just some thoughts on how it could be made to fit the site structure better. The license is tied to the artist's whereabouts, not individual images, so it should probably be tied to artist's tag here. Something like that.

    Licenses can be tied to individual images though. An artist may release a specific image with a public license, or only some of an artist's work may have fallen into the public domain for various reasons. In the case of Louis Wain it is the same info every time, but I'd rather keep all the license info in a standard location on the post page since it can be post specific.
