Proper Attribution

[ktoddbrown]

Hi!

I would like to use this as a template/workflow for one of my semester long classes. How can I do this while preserving the correct attribution for The Carpentries? While I may pull some of the episodes as well most of the course content is beyond what is currently in The Carpentries.

Thank you so much for pulling this together!

Hello, @ktoddbrown,

There is nothing you need to do in particular. All lessons created with The Workbench will have attribution to the tooling used in the footer:

.

In regards to a formal method of credit, we have not yet implemented a formal credit page because there is a mix of dynamic and static content that we need to juggle. For your use case, adding a cff file would probably work well: https://citation-file-format.github.io/

Also, you don't have to copy this particular lesson, if you want to start from scratch, you can use the Markdown Template (https://bit.ly/new-lesson-md) or the R Markdown Template (https://bit.ly/new-lesson-rmd)

I noticed that footer! Ok I can work with this. Thank you again @zkamvar !

One more thing, when you create your lesson, I would recommend that you add a SANDPAPER_WORKFLOW token to your repository secrets. This way, you can get periodic pull requests that update your workflows and packages: https://carpentries.github.io/sandpaper/articles/automated-pull-requests.html#setting-up-a-pull-request-bot
