BY, aka Attribution.

All of the 6 main Creative Commons licenses have Attribution as one of the requirements. As explained by the license deeds, to fulfill the requirements of Attribution you must attribute the work in the manner specified by the author or licensor (but not in any way that suggests that they endorse you or your use of the work).

How to give attribution:

  • For basic examples, see marking.
  • For examples involving HTML/RDFa metadata, see ccREL.
