AVID:Adding Credits
From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum
Credits are needed for every page on the CLG Wiki. So what exactly do you do to make them?
1. Open the source editor on the page you want (Note: Do not attempt to do this with the visual editor, it won't work at all)
2. add the following wikitext at the very top of the page: {{PageCredits|parameter=names|parameter=names|etc...}}
3. choose your parameters depending on your needs from the list below:
Standard Parameters:
description
anyone who wrote most or all of a logo descriptioncapture
anyone who took the image captures seen on the pagevideo
anyone who uploaded a video used on the pageedits
those who made frequent small edits on a page. If there are many, this section can be ended with "and others"
Additional parameters:
compiled
use if one single person worked on a page, or if all the people involved with the page performed all the roles involved.tutorial
use if the page is a tutorial.
4. Separate each parameter with this symbol: |
5. When you save or preview the page, the credits should show up properly formatted.
All done!
