This is a documentation subpage for Template:Fandom content. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Some Fandom media is licensed under a Wikipedia compatible licence. When this is true text and other media can be copied from Fandom into Wikipedia providing adequate attribution is given.
The Wikia licence, (Like the Wikipedia licence) makes it clear that attribution should be placed in the article:[under discussion]
- Using Fandom content
Each wiki contains information on which license applies to your use of the text. It is your responsibility to understand and adhere to that license. Text from external sources may attach additional attribution requirements to the work beyond what is described on this page.
When re-using Fandom text that has been posted subject a Creative Commons license, you must provide attribution to the authors using one of the attribution methods described in the section above titled “Attribution.”
Attribution example when re-using Fandom content on your own website:
- This article uses material from the "Endor" article on the Star Wars wiki at Fandom (formerly Wikia) and is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike License.
Off-wiki content (for example, emails, IRC chats, off-wiki forums) should not be assumed to be released under this license if this is not explicitly stated.
The Wikipedia plagiarism guideline recommends that attribution is placed in the references section under a bold Attribution statement.
This template implements the attribution requirements.
Usage
[edit]{{Fandom content |sitename=site name — the name of the wiki |official sitename=official sitename — used when the official name was differ to URL |article=article name — the name of the article |datecopied=Day month year — the date to the day the copy was made (any usual format) |date=Month year — today's date |inline=1 — changes the lead for use in inline citations from "This article ..." to "One or more of the preceding sentences ..." }}
The parameters sitename=
and article=
must be set or a red warning is displayed. The older parameter articlename=
is still allowed.
The "date" parameter should be set to the date that this template is first used. If it is not set by hand then it will be set by a bot (see AWB:Dated templates).
The"datecopied" parameter should be date the copy was made, but if it is not set or is set to empty then the value of the "date" parameter is displayed. This is a fall back position so that someone else knows the most recent date of where to start look at the history of the articles for the date when the material was copied into Wikipedia.
An example with the usual parameters set:
*{{Fandom content |sitename=Starwars |article=Endor |datecopied=28 February 2013 |date=March 2014 }}
produces
- This article incorporates material derived from the "Endor" article on the Starwars wiki at Fandom (formerly Wikia) and is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike License (28 February 2013).
An example with the inline parameter set:
*{{Fandom content |sitename=Starwars |article=Endor |datecopied=28 February 2012 |date=March 2014 |inline=x }}
produces
- One or more of the preceding sentences incorporates material derived from the "Endor" article on the Starwars wiki at Fandom (formerly Wikia) and is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike License (28 February 2012).
An example without the datecopied parameter:
*{{Fandom content |sitename=Starwars |article=Endor |date=March 2014 }}
produces:
- This article incorporates material derived from the "Endor" article on the Starwars wiki at Fandom (formerly Wikia) and is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike License (March 2014).
An example with official sitename parameter:
*{{Fandom content |sitename=Starwars |official sitename=Wookieepedia |article=Endor |date=March 2014 }}
produces:
- This article incorporates material derived from the "Endor" article on the Wookieepedia at Fandom (formerly Wikia) and is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike License (March 2014).
