Template:Copyright

From Wikinews, the free news source you can write!


[edit] Template documentation

Purpose

This template is used to mark and document image files that are copyrighted but have been granted a limited license for use on English Wikinews. It displays a non-free media notification box and optionally adds the file to Category:Gol image unless suppression is specified.

Usage

Place this template on the description page of a non-free image that has been explicitly licensed for use on Wikinews under a *Grant of License*. The image will be labeled with a copyright warning and a reference to the article(s) in which it may be used.

Syntax

{{Copyright
 | 1 = Name of the copyright holder
 | 2 = Title of the primary article using the image
 | 3 = (Optional) Title of a second article using the image
 | fair = any value to suppress the deletion warning
 | nocat = any value to suppress automatic categorization
}}

Parameters

  • 1 — The name of the **copyright holder**.
  • 2 — The **title of the article** where the image is used (must exist).
  • 3 — (Optional) A **second article title** where the image is used.
  • fair — If set (to any value), **suppresses the deletion warning** that otherwise appears for files lacking a grant of license.
  • nocat — If set, suppresses the default categorization into Category:Gol image.

Behavior

  • If fair is **not set**, the template displays {{resolutiondelete}} to flag the file for deletion unless an explicit license is present.
  • Unless nocat is set, the page is added to Category:Gol image.
  • Always adds a copyright notice using the {{roundbox}} template with the type nonfree and a copyright icon.
