Template:Copied/doc

This template is meant to simplify the merge/split procedures by providing one template that can be used on the talk pages of source and destination articles or other pages. Intended for use on talk pages, this template identifies that text and/or other creative content has been copied or moved from one page to another, recording attribution dependencies as described by Copying within Wikipedia.

Usage

 * Be sure to use the exact page names of the articles.
 * The page names are automatically linked, so this template will not behave as expected if the names are enclosed in link brackets (  – ).
