These templates appear to have been blindly copied from Commons and never customized for the English Wikipedia. The only usage of Template:LOC-meta is Template:LOC-image/sandbox, which could easily be re-synced from Template:LOC-image. The other two templates are unused. They even still link to commons:Licensing, when the correct link is c:Commons:Licensing or Wikipedia:Licensing * Pppery * it has begun... 01:51, 3 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Sure re: LOC-meta; no comment on the others. I'm the creator of LOC-meta and assume it served some purpose at the time I created it (probably was useful for an image that wasn't PD in its home country and so had to be hosted on en.wiki rather than commons). Given that it's not in use now, I assume some other solution has been developed. Calliopejen1 (talk) 02:01, 3 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
