Attributing me
If you reuse any of the content on Root Directory, I can be attributed using TASL: title, author, source, licence. You can do this either in prose, or in another format, such as YAML.
The properties can be filled in as follows:
- Title – The first heading on each page (H1) is the title. If frontmatter is visible, you can also grab the value from
title:. They should be mirrored.- (If they are not, please let me know, as this is an error).
- Author – Either "Tristan Rafferty" or "tmraff" will do.
- Source – The page URL is appropriate here. If that is, for some reason, unavailable, "Root Directory" is also acceptable.
- Licence – CC BY-SA 4.0. Be aware that any images or otherwise noted content may be licenced more restrictively. These will always be labelled with TASL and the terms of their respective licences should be followed.
