Template:Interwiki copy/doc

This template may be used to give attribution for text copied from other Wikimedia Foundation projects into the English language Wikipedia.

Usage

Place the following code near the top of the talk page of the English page:

{{Interwiki copy|url= |title= }}

• After |url= place the permanent URL of the Wikimedia Foundation project page you are using.
• After |title= place the exact name of the original page.

Alternatively, provide the source as an interwiki link using Special:PermanentLink:

{{Interwiki copy|source= }}

Don't forget to add a dummy edit in the article to fix attribution problems. For example, for content copied from Simple-Wiki:

Content copied from [[Simple:Wikipedia]]; see that page's history for attribution
