Credits
We cite authors and works, not platforms: “Rashi on Bereshit 12:5”, “Metsudah Chumash (R' Avrohom Davis)”. Where a license asks for a credit line, it's here.
The classic texts themselves are public domain (the Vilna Talmud, the Torat Emet and other old printed editions), and some modern editions are CC0; they need no credit line here. Every text on Pshat is shown with its edition, and every API response states each text's license. Our own content is public domain (CC0).
