Flickr Attribution (FA) Template

This template is to be used in the description of any Free Content (CC-BY or CC-BY-SA) image taken from Flickr. For example the picture to the right is displayed with this syntax:

[[Image:Reflection_in_drop.jpg| thumb| right| 300px| City reflection in a drop {{FlickerAttribution | author=tanakawho | url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/28481088@N00/540472927/ | license=CC-BY}}]]

Note:

  1. The template {FlickerAttribution} is typically inserted after the caption, or is used in place of the caption.
  2. If the Author (Photographer), url or both are omitted an error message is displayed.
  3. The optional "license" attribute can be set to CC-BY; CC-BY-SA; CC-BY-NC or CC-BY-NC-SA for images
