### Notice for translations

The WHATWG [Living Standards][Living Standard] are under a permissive license that allows
independent translations. The WHATWG recommends the following notice for translations, including the
links:

> This is a translation of the <var>X</var> Standard, which is licensed under a [Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/). Copyright © WHATWG (Apple, Google, Mozilla, Microsoft).

In the text above, "<var>X</var> Standard" should link to the translated [Living Standard] and
<var>X</var> should be replaced with its name.

In addition, the WHATWG recommends a notice similar to the following, translated into the language
of the translation:

> This translation is non-normative. The Living Standard contains the normative requirements and might be newer.

In the text above, "Living Standard" should link to the translated [Living Standard].
