Documentation for the template: Sig Image Data-Int (transcluded from Template:Sig Image Data-Int/Doc

Purpose

This template is to be placed on the image description page of an enlargement of an artist's signature from interior art published in a book, magazine, or other publication. The image should be cropped to just the signature. This template is for cases where the image is used under fair use.

Usage

Call this template as:

{{Sig Image Data-Int
|Title=<publication title>
|Edition=<date and/or publisher>
|Publisher=<Name of publisher>
|Artist=<name of cover artist>
|Source=<origin of image>
}}

All parameter names have an inital capitol letter. Case is significant in a parameter name. The order of the parameters is not significant, but the order above is suggested, as it is the order of use within the template.

Parameter definitions

Parameter Description Default
Title Should specify the actual title of the book or other publication in which the image being displayed was published. Required Field
Edition Ideally should specify the year and publisher, as "Ace 1983", or some other text string which will distinguish the specified edition from other publications of the same title. Required Field
Publisher Should specify the name of the publisher of the publication displayed, for proper attribution. Required Field
Artist The name of the artist, if known. If omitted, defaults to "Unknown".
Source Website where the image was obtained, or name or handle of user who scanned the image. If omitted, defaults to "Unknown".

Example

For a usage example, see the example page.

Categories

This template places all pages it is used on into Category:Fair use images and Category:Artist Signature Images. It will also place each page into an Author and a Publisher category, the names being derived from the appropriate parameters.
