Set up an "universal" template for ACC project, with accurate descriptions matching the data (© 2003 Richard Sears) from www.internationalscientific.org.

When you upload an SVG ancient Chinese character, please copy paste this "ACClicense" template such as :

• {{ACClicense|字|oracle|shang|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shang oracle images)
• {{ACClicense|字|oracle|zhouyuan|strokes=|component1=}} (for Zhouyuan oracle images)
• {{ACClicense|字|bronze|western|strokes=|component1=}} (for Western Zhou bronzeware images)
• {{ACClicense|字|bronze|shang|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shang bronzeware images)
• {{ACClicense|字|bronze|spring|strokes=|component1=}} (for Spring and Autumn bronzeware images)
• {{ACClicense|字|bronze|warring|strokes=|component1=}} (for Warring States bronzeware images)
• {{ACClicense|字|slip|chu|strokes=|component1=}} (for Chu slip images)
• {{ACClicense|字|slip|qin|strokes=|component1=}} (for Qin slip images)
• {{ACClicense|字|silk|chu|strokes=|component1=}} (for Chu silk images)
• {{ACClicense|字|silk slip|strokes=|component1=}} (for other silk slips)
• {{ACClicense|字|seal|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shuowen seal images)
• {{ACClicense|字|ancient|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shuowen ancient images)
• {{ACClicense|字|zhou|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shuowen zhou images)
• {{ACClicense|字|odd|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shuowen odd images)
• {{ACClicense|字|liushutong|strokes=|component1=}} (for Liushutong / Big seal images)

Parameter	Mandatory?	Meaning
1	Mandatory	The character being described. This character becomes a category. To avoid that categorizing, use cat=r with parameters 6 and stroke.
2	Mandatory	The type of script. May be one of : oracle / bronze / seal / bigseal.
3	Mandatory only for oracle and bronze	The time period of unearthed characters (oracle, bronze, slip, silk). Oracle, slip and silk will be auto-filled, so this parameter is just for bronze. May be one of: shang (for Shang oracle or Shang bronzeware) zhouyuan (for Zhouyuan oracle) west / western / western Zhou / Western Zhou / zhouyuan (for Western Zhou) spring / spring and autumn / Spring and Autumn (for Spring and Autumn) war / warring / warring states / Warring States (for Warring States).
4	Optional	The code name of the former GIF image in Richard Sears. It is not required, but welcome if your source is Richard Sears.
5	Optional	For various comments, if needed. But linguistic informations are not welcome: other websites provide such datas with more accuracy than us.
6 rad	Suggested *	Enables categorization depending on the system of the 214 traditional Kangxi radicals; it can be coded as a three-digit number, e.g. 078 (leading zeroes are not necessary and may be omitted).
7	Optional	For free comment (Kangxi variants).
8	Optional	Enables categorization (only to use if the character belongs to the 540 ancient Shuowen radicals, or their variants); it should be coded as a three-digit number, e.g. 078.
9	Optional	For free comment (Shuowen variants).
kaiOrder	Optional	The Kaishu number of a character in Sinica Database which can be found in Sinica's URL. It is not required and only used when the character being described is different from the source.
fontcode	Optional	The code name of the former PNG image in Sinica Database which can be found in Sinica's URL. It is not required, but welcome if your source is Sinica.
draw	Optional	Allows a classification of the glyph according to its strokes number, for comparison and research purpose. See the stroke tutorial if you intend to use it. This feature is automatically disabled for the Liushutong script, so please don't include this function when you upload -bigseal.svg files. See also Commons:Maint:ACC:NoDraw.
component1	Mandatory	Allows a classification of the glyph according to its components, for comparison and research purpose. It should be used for simple or compound characters. If no component is given, the character is indexed in the category:ACC needing decomposition category.
component2 to component6	Optional	The other components, used for compound characters.
permission	Optional	You can also provide your own free license(s).
strokes	Suggested *	The number of additional strokes; together with the radical number in parameter 6, used by Template:Rcat for categorizing.
cat	Suggested *	Set cat=r to use Template:Rcat for categorizing with parameters 6 and stroke; set cat=n for none. See also Commons:Maint:ACClicense for undefined categories.
var	Optional	Can be used when the character uses another radical variant, e.g. standard rad(66)=攴, var=攵.
i	Suggested * for SVG	To add the parameters for Template:Igen, e.g. i=I[nkscape]; i=P[otrace]. See also Commons:Maint:ACC:Unspec for undefined SVG tools.
extension	Optional	Can be used this is not a ".svg" image, to indicate its actual extension (without the leading dot).
*: it is recommended to provide these parameters.

The draw parameter tells the number of pen strokes needed to draw that character. The strokes parameter specifies the number of the additional strokes, when cat=r is coded.
