1. entry \/ overview<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

Anyone who is a member of the Verwertungs\u00adgesellschaft Wort<\/a> (Copyright collective<\/a>) and operates a wiki faces several problems when he or she wants to participate in the METIS programme<\/a>, i.e. registering his or her online texts for monetization<\/a>.<\/p>\n

METIS stands for \u201eMeldesystem f\u00fcr Texte auf Internet\u00adseiten<\/a>\u201c (\u201cReporting System for Texts on Internet Pages\u201d). VG Wort requires a minimum length of the texts as well as a minimum number of article views (\u201chits\u201d), which must be proven by the installation of \u201ccounting pixels\u201d on the article page. For the installation of these pixels you can order \u201ccounting markers\u201d from VG Wort, each of which consists of a set of public and private keys and a URL to a counting pixel on a VG Wort server.<\/p>\n

3. import counting markers<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

A snippet of HTML code on how to include this counter in an HTML page is included. For web pages from the 1980s, which consisted of self-made HTML pages, it is a simple matter to insert this HTML code via copy and paste into the HTML code of the page. But how can these counters be integrated into modern content management systems<\/a>, which in a very complex way assemble the pages finally delivered to the reader from database queries, templates and skins?<\/p>\n

\"4.<\/a>

4. edit counting markers<\/p><\/div>\n

This task, as well as the administration of the counter marks, the assignment of the counter marks to the articles and the annual report to VG Wort are part of the functional scope of this enhancement.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"5.<\/a>

5. Assign counting markers<\/p><\/div>\n

Bei den Blogs gibt es beispielsweise f\u00fcr WordPress<\/a> bereits eine daf\u00fcr geeignete Erweiterung der Firma Prosodia<\/a> mit dem Namen Prosodia VGW OS f\u00fcr Z\u00e4hlmarken (VG WORT)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For wiki<\/a> software, such as MediaWiki<\/a>, there was no corresponding solution until now.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
