Credits for translations

We need to decide how to give credits for translations.

In DE and afaik. EN it is common to post source, author(s), translator(s) and other credits in the comments of the article.

On the other hand the already translated FR-articles are having this box at the end of the page:

Author : Torrential
Source : La Fondation SCP
Date : 26/09/2014
Link : SCP-054-FR

We now have to decide which sort of credits we want:

• Comments
• Box
• Other (please specify).

I personally favor the comments, as I think the box interferes heavily with the look of the page.

As Grom, I think a big blue box is a bit too much. I'd favor the comment option; however, a solution in between these two would be to use the italian method, which consist in adding a line at the end and adding a simple link to the original page: this should provide, with one link, all info needed, with a bit of searching around. Example follows.

Ufficial (or original) source: Title in Original Language

We can still put the box in the comments.

I've worked a bit on it to simplify the module code creation process.

Here is an excel file that create the box code with only few informations.
