New title will be:Best practices for attribution
You can use CC-licensed materials as long as you follow the license conditions. One condition of all CC licenses is attribution. Here are some good (and not so good) examples of attribution. Note: If you want to learn how to mark your own material with a CC license gohere.

Examples of attribution
Here is a photo. Following it are some examples of how people might attribute it.
This is an ideal attribution
Because:
- 作者吗?"tvol" - linked to his profile page
- 源?"Creative Commons 10th Birthday Celebration San Francisco" - linked to original Flickr page
- License? "CC BY" - linked to license deed
This is a pretty good attribution
Because:
This is an incorrect attribution
Because:
- 作者吗?卡塔尔vs葡萄牙分析知识共享不是这张照片的作者。
- 源?没有原始照片的链接。
- License? There is no mention of the license, much less a link to the license. "Creative Commons" is an organization.
This is a good attribution for material you modified slightly
Because:
- Author, Source, and License are all noted
- Modification? "Desaturated from original"
This is a good attribution for material from which you created a derivative work
Because:
- Original Author, Source, and License are all noted
- Derivative? "This work, "90fied", is a derivative of..."
- New author of the derivative work is also noted
Note: If you're at a point where you are licensing derivative works, go toMarking your work with a CC license.
This is a good attribution for material from multiple sources
Because:
- 作者吗?不同的作者以不同的作品著称。
- 源?Original materials are linked for each work
- License? The different licenses (Creative Commons Attribution for Collaborative Statistics and Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-ShareAlike for the Khan Academy video) are spelled out and linked for each work
- Lastly, it is clear which attribution belongs to which work.
You can visit theSaylor.org Introduction to Statistics course pageto see how they marked it up directly.
Author, Source, License
A good rule of thumb is to use the acronymASL, which stands forAuthor,Source,License.
Author- Who owns the material?
- Name the author or authors of the material in question. Sometimes, the licensor may want you to give credit to some other entity, like a company or pseudonym. In rare cases, the licensor may not want to be attributed at all. In all of these cases, just do what they request.
Source我在哪里可以找到它?
- Since you somehow accessed the material, you know where to find it. Provide the source of the material so others can, too. Since we live in the age of the Internet, this is usually a URL or hyperlink where the material resides.
License- How can I use it?
- You are obviously using the material for free thanks to the CC license, so make note of it. Don't just say the material is Creative Commons, because that says nothing about how the material can actually be used. Remember that there are six different CC licenses; which one is the material under? Name and provide a link to it, eg.//www.familygiver.com/licenses/by/4.0/为CC。
Lastly, is there anything else I should know before I use it?
- When you accessed the material originally did it come with any copyright notices, disclaimers, or warranties? Because that kind of legal mumbo jumbo is actually pretty important to potential users of the material. So best practice is to just retain all of that stuff by copying and pasting it into your attribution. Don't make it anymore complicated than it is -- just pass on any info you think is important.
Devil in the details
If you have any doubts or questions, you can read the complete attribution requirements which are spelled out in detail in the legal code of every CC license, eg.//www.familygiver.com/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode.
Don't make it too complicated
The license tells you to be reasonable:
- You may satisfy the conditions in (1) and (2) above in anyreasonable mannerbased on the medium, means and context in which the Licensed Material is used. For example, it may be reasonable to satisfy some or all of the conditions by retaining a copyright notice, or by providing a URI or hyperlink associated with the Licensed Material, if the copyright notice or webpage includes some or all of the required information.
没有一条正确的路;只要确保你的归类是合理的,并且适合你所使用的媒体。(更多关于不同媒介的内容below.)
Attribution in specific media
As stated above, best practices for attribution apply as reasonable to the medium you're working with. For media such as offline materials, video, audio, and images, consider:
- 1.Publishing a web page with attribution information.For example, on a webpage featuring your audio recording, provide a credit list of material you used that adheres to best practices above. Doing so allows not only your material, but the materials you attribute, to be found by search engines and other web discovery tools. If possible within the medium, make the Author, Source, and License links the user can follow.
-
Example:
This video features the song"Desaprendere (Treatment)"byfourstones, available under a Creative CommonsAttribution-Noncommerciallicense.
- 2.Mentioning the credits within the media itself.For example, crediting videos can be a simple list of the materials used with their associated licenses in a screen at the end of a video. For audio, it can be a verbal recitation of credits at the end of the recording.
-
Video example 1:"Science Commons" by Jesse Dylan -see attribution starting at 1:52
Video example 2:"Video Editing and Shot Techniques: Study of jump cuts, match cuts and cutaways " video by New Media Rights -see attribution starting at 3:21
Audio example:"Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom" by Cory Doctorow read aloud. Mastered by John Taylor Williams -listen to attribution starting at 17:08
