 * Thanks for the pointer to that . According to that template, part of the requirements for using their work in this manner is "explicitly publishing the attribution statement, including the DOI (Digital Object Identifier), or the URL (Uniform Resource Locator), or the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) of the data concerned," so it looks like that's something that needs to be included on the article page. I'll start working on a template for that. In the meantime, are you aware of any other articles copied from similar sources that we will need to add attribution to?

 * I'm not aware of any specific articles with copied content. I created Indian aid to Africa which has some government sources used as references but the content is not a direct copy. Similar sources are probably used on articles related to Indian government organizations, laws, foreign relations etc. EcoWizard (talk) 06:05, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Using it as sources without additional attribution (besides the usual citation that we do for any reference) is fine, it's once we get into copied or closely paraphrased text that we need to honor the terms of their license or else it is a copyright violation.
