Wikipedia talk:Attribution
|
Editors, please note:
In February 2007, after four months of discussion at Wikipedia:Attribution, a number of editors at Wikipedia talk:Attribution agreed on a means of merging Wikipedia:Verifiability with Wikipedia:No original research, while also streamlining Wikipedia:Reliable sources into a simpler FAQ at WP:ATT/FAQ. However, the community decided against deprecating those longstanding policies, which are conceptually distinct and handy to refer to as such, rejecting the original proposal to give this page policy status. In some cases, this page may be easier to refer to, but when attempting to refer to individual elements of this page, it will best to refer to those.
WP:ATT is intended by some editors to be a more cohesive version of the core content policies with which the Wikipedia community is already familiar. After a long dispute a consensus was achieved in July 2008 to mark this page as an Essay.
