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
A minimal call (omitting parameters that can safely be left to their defaults) to the template would be:
{{Sig Image Data
|Title=<publication title>
|Edition=<date and/or publisher>
|Pub=<the publication record number or tag>
|Publisher=<Name of publisher>
|Artist=<name of cover artist>
|Source=<origin of image>
}}
A maximal call, including all parameters, would be:
{{Sig Image Data
|Title=<publication title>
|Edition=<date and/or publisher>
|Pub=<the publication record number or tag>
|Publisher=<Name of publisher>
|Artist=<name of cover artist>
|CpyrtHolder=<name of the actual copyright holder>
|Source=<origin of image>
|AddRat=<Additional fair use rationale>
}}
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 whose image is being displayed. | Required Field |
Edition | Ideally should specify the year and publisher, as "Ace 1983", or some other text string which will distinguish the pictured edition from other publications of the same title. | Required Field |
Pub | The publication record number or tag. Must be a valid argument to {{P}} . |
Strongly encouraged. No default. |
Publisher | Should specify the name of the publisher of the publication displayed, for proper attribution. | Required Field |
Artist | The name of the cover artist, if known. | If omitted, defaults to "Unknown". Links to the artist's DB page unless the artist is "Unknown". |
Source | Website where the image was obtained, or name or handle of user who scanned the image. | If omitted, defaults to "Unknown". |
AddRat | Additional rationale. Any text spelling out additional reasons why this image qualifies for fair use. | Defaults to blank. Should be ommitted unless there is an additional rationale to specify. |
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.
