Agreed ... though Molly replied that there are plans in the works to develop "plugins for content platforms, so that people who publish open content can put an “attribute this” button right on their site, similar to the “cite this” button that appears on every page of Wikipedia" We already do this on Commons of course, but we might be able to learn from their implementation, and it's a brilliant idea for all open content providers. As for the Wikipedia link, my highly anecdotal experience is that few people see it -- even many librarians! phoebe _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
