Template:CCBYSASource/doc

Usage

• {{CCBYSASource|sourcepath=URL|sourcearticle=ARTICLE NAME AT SOURCE|revision=WIKIPEDIA REVISION|authors(s)=NAME OF AUTHOR OR AUTHORS}}

If license is confirmed by notice on the website, please consider also using Template:Text release on the article's talk page.

Parameters

• sourcepath: The URL of the source page.
• sourcearticle: The name of the page or section of the page being incorporated.
• revision: The permanent identification of the Wikipedia revision that incorporated the text. To get this, take the digits at the end of a permanent link, after "oldid=".
• author(s): the author or authors of the source. This may be needed to meet the "appropriate credit" provision of Creative Commons licenses, which provide (for examples in all of CC-By 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0) that: "If supplied, you must provide the name of the creator and attribution parties". This field is not always required, as some sources simply do not supply the authors, and for others (for example, Wikipedia content), it is specified that a link to the URL of a page, which has an accessible page history, is sufficient credit to its author or authors.

Example

{{CCBYSASource|sourcepath=http://www.test.com/|sourcearticle=Test title|revision=287656179|author(s)=John, Ringo, George and Paul}}
