Hi Fæ! It looks like most of these images are licensed under (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0). Could you take a look of what has happened? Hogne (talk) 21:10, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

@Hogne: Yes, they have apparently changed the license at source since upload, probably a long time after upload here. Checking webarchive, I only find a cache of these from 2016, which seem to have the NC license. However I have my original code, and there was an explicit test of the webpage - if rights.find("Creative Commons Attribution 2.5")==-1 - which would have rejected any photograph that did not have the correct license.

As evidence of the change at source, rather than a mistake, compare:

Obviously between 2013 and now, the licenses have been restricted, which does not revoke the CC-BY originals. --Fæ (talk) 21:42, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

@Fæ: OK, I understand! But are you sure that the original license was correct? Did www.norden.org have the right to set this license? Hogne (talk) 22:00, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

Yes. If only by the fact that of the 5,000+ uploaded images, none has ever received a complaint or a request to change the license, over the last four years. --Fæ (talk) 22:20, 10 April 2017 (UTC)
