Template:LicenseReview

This file, which was originally posted to an external website, has not yet been reviewed by an administrator or reviewer to confirm that the above license is valid. See Category:License review needed for further instructions.

Documentation

This documentation is transcluded from Template:LicenseReview/doc. (edit | history)

English: This template is intended to be used similarly to {{Flickrreview}}, but for files not coming from Flickr. However, because we have currently no automated procedure for reviewing licenses from external sites, it is a bit simpler.

The template automatically sets the following categories:

• Category:Images from external sources with admin-reviewed licenses

Usage

{{LicenseReview|site=|user=|date=}}

Or use the shorthand {{subst:Lrw|<site>}}

English: If you have verified that a license stated at some external site indeed corresponds to the license stated here at the Commons, you can use this template. (If you've found a license mismatch, mark the file using the "nominate for deletion", "no permission" or "report a copyright violation" links in the sidebar instead. Use this template only for successful license reviews.)

Parameters

site	Link to the file description page at the external site, e.g. ipernity	empty	required

Missing one or more parameters! This template takes three arguments: first the external site, then the reviewer's user name, then the review date. Example: {{LicenseReview|site=[http://www.example.org/this_page.html Example Site]|user={{subst:REVISIONUSER}}|date={{subst:#time: Y-m-d }}}} or shorthand {{subst:Lrw|[http://www.example.org/this_page.html Example Site]}}
