Attach attribution and license information to media images. If you want to add an image to an article that is licensed under a Creative Commons license, this module lets you add source, author and license terms links to a caption under the image, as per the guidelines published by Creative Commons here: Best practices for attribution.

This module creates a taxonomy vocabulary of licenses, so you can add new licenses and edit the default Creative Commons licenses.

Installation Note:

Patch requirement

In order to properly use the license attribution form items with the inline
media browser CKEditor button (the 'star' button), the this patch is required:

From this Paragraphs issue: Integrity constraint violation: 1048 Column 'langcode' cannot be null

If you install the module via composer require drupal/media_attribution, the patch will be applied for you.

I am delaying a full release of this module until this patch is committed to the Paragraphs module.
