The current license label is longer than it needs to be ('Licensing information') and distracts the user from viewing the image (see attached screenshot). 

Consider instead using this shorter title:

'See license'

This would only be shown when a file is *not* Creative Commons, as outlined in this Mingle ticket:
https://mingle.corp.wikimedia.org/projects/multimedia/cards/34


Since 61% of Wikimedia Commons files are licensed under Creative Commons, this label would be shown about 39% of the time, which makes it an important use case.

Change 93608 had a related patch set uploaded by Gergő Tisza:
Shorter text for license link

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/93608
Comment 2 Tisza Gergő 2013-11-05 00:23:01 UTC
Siebrand recommends making the max width of the license text about 200% of the width of the English version so that more verbose translations still display properly.
