I'm working on an MVC project where most of the text of the pages will be extracted from Wikipedia (possibly, but not necessarily English), and manually translated in additional languages. As far as I can see, credit to the authors is required, as stated here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_Attribution-ShareAlike_3.0_Unported_License
My question is, how do I create attribution text/links to add to my pages? Will I have to manually find out all the authors on each and every Wikipedia source page? Is there any credit template/builder?
A link to the article is sufficient attribution (see the terms of use), except for images, which do not have a unified license and so there's no easy way to give attribution. The media viewer GUI has a license template, but you cannot invoke that programmatically.
