Templates from Fandom

Fandom's terms of use forbid "any robot, spider, scraper or other automated means" without written permission, so fetch_template.py never fetches from Fandom. A template there can still be copied by hand, if the wiki's licence allows it:

  1. Check the wiki's licence: it shows on the wiki's edit page and in its footer. Fandom wikis use CC BY-SA 3.0 unless they say otherwise. Some use a NonCommercial or NoDerivs licence; templates from those can't be used here.
  2. Copy the template's text from its edit page, without its documentation and categories.
  3. Start the file with the header, linking the Fandom page and its history, and add an Original licence line. CC BY-SA 3.0 lets an adaptation be shared under a later version, so the template is shared here under CC BY-SA 4.0 like the others.

Such templates aren't in the record, so --check-updates doesn't cover them. compare_template.py renders their examples on the board only.
