Documentation for the template: Cover Image Data-PD Old (transcluded from Template:Cover Image Data-PD Old/Doc)
Purpose
This template is to be placed on the image description page of a book, magazine, or other publication cover image that is in the public domain because it was published before 1923.
Usage
Call this template as:
{{Cover Image Data-PD Old
|Title=<publication title>
|Edition=<date and/or publisher>
|Publisher=<Name of publisher>
|Artist=<name of cover artist>
|Year=<Year of publication>
|Source=<origin of image>
|Side=<BackOrFront>
}}
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 "Scribner's 1913", or some other text string which will distinguish the pictured 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. | Defaults to "Unknown". |
Artist | The name of the cover artist. | If omitted, defaults to "Unknown". |
Year | Year of publication. Must be prior to 1964 to support public domain status. | Required Field |
Source | Website where the image was obtained, or name or handle of user who scanned the image. | If omitted, defaults to "Unknown". |
Side | should be "back" if this is a (rare) back-cover image. | If omitted, defaults to "front". |

For a usage example, see the example page.
