At [[Image:Buddhist Monk.JPG#Metadata]], the "Date and time of data generation" field will always be the current time. The actual date in the EXIF is 2005:03:03 14:07:34.
Actually, the field seems to be bogus, at least as read from exif_read_data(): ["DateTimeOriginal"]=> string(19) " : : : : "
Yes, that's true. Presumably MediaWiki should handle that error a little better---if it fails to parse a date from the value, it should detect that fact, instead of defaulting to "now". Perhaps a good default action is to display the value literally (in this case, " : : : : ").
