Documentation for the template: Sig Image Data (transcluded from Template:Sig Image Data/Doc
Purpose
This template is to be placed on the image description page of an enlargement of an artist's signature from a book, magazine, or other publication cover image. 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
|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.
