Rule 138: Source lyrics

Always leave a source for the lyrics; sources should provide a link to an originating source and / or mention the name of the translator. If transcribed, translated, or transliterated by yourself, you should source your own name and provide a relevant link (such as your VocaDB user profile).

If the lyric source is missing, locate it before modifying the lyrics. See a list of websites where to look for lyrics. If the source can’t be found, create an entry report for the missing source and use a credit like “Unknown (fixed by user2)”.

(Applies to all song entries)
