documentation
subpage for
Template:Copyvio. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{ subst:Copyvio}}). |
Usage
If a text page is a likely copyright violation, add the following before the copied text:
{{
subst:copyvio|url=source(s)}} where the copyvio starts and {{
copyvio/bottom}} where the copyvio ends.
{{
subst:copyvio|url=source(s)|fullpage=yes}} if the entire page has a copyright issue.
This template must always be substituted.
- If the entire page, including all previous versions of it, is a blatant copyright violation, do not use this template and do not blank the page. Tag with {{ db-copyvio}} instead.
- If only part of the page is a likely copyright violation, you may tag only that section. The template by default will blank all content following it; to limit the blanking, place {{ Copyvio/bottom}} at the point where copyright concerns end.
- This template is not for use with images. Blatant image copyright violations should be tagged with {{ Db-f9}}. Otherwise, suspected image violations should be tagged with {{ Ffd}}. If this template is used on a page in the File namespace, it will transclude Template:Copyvio error above the notice.
- Separate multiple URLs with spaces.
