How would one know which image is licensed under which license?

The csv file has the original URL and licenses.

The csv file has the URL to the original picture. Since most(all?) of them are from Wikipedia/Wikimedia commons each picture has its own page which includes metadata about the picture.

This does seem like a "tragedy of the commons" in the making if people start using Github as a photo sharing site, possibly in reaction to the demise of free photo sharing sites.
