usage as author value

Hi, can we add clear instructions not to use this in the author field of {{Information}} templates please? On most file description pages it is this field that should tell which attribution term to use when reusing, and a table like this is hardly usable in captions or lists of illustrations (see also #4 here). Also, this template isn't metadata compatible, which means that even when reusers copy the attribution term from the Media Viewer, they won't get a right-looking piece of text they can use for attribution either. {{Author}} can be used with semicolons instead, like here.    FDMS  4    11:18, 22 February 2015 (UTC)

 Done.    FDMS  4    14:48, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

In follow up the same logic might also apply to source fields.ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 09:09, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
