![]() | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Comic cover rationale. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
editThis template is designed to ease the adding of an initial non-free use rationale to uploaded images of comic book covers.
Syntax
edit(copy this to your image page)
{{ subst:Comic cover rationale | Article name | Comic title || Owner of the copyright | }}
OR
{{ subst:Comic cover rationale | Article name | Comic title | Website URL | Owner of the copyright | }}
The parameters are:
- The article the image is used in.
- The title of the comic book, graphic novel, trade paperback, or similar that the cover is part of.
- If the file was retrieved from a website, the URL of that site. The template with insert "Scan made by the original uploader." if this is left blank.
- The company and/or person that owns the copyright of the cover.
- Licensing flag. This can be set one of three ways:
- "Comic" which will add {{non-free comic}} to the page.
- "Book" which will add {{non-free book cover}} to the page. This should be used with graphic novels, trade paperbacks, and hardcover collections.
- Nothing or anything else will suppress the inclusion of a licensing template. This should be used for new uploads since there is a pull down menu to allow licensing selection on the upload page.
