Add LegalAuthorship template for legal-content-page Author/Reviewer footer (Phase 2A)

New page

<noinclude>
== Usage ==

This template generates the standard Author / Reviewer byline block displayed at the bottom of legal-topic content pages on WikiMesothelioma (trust fund pages, statute-of-limitations pages, settlement guides, etc.). It does '''not''' generate JSON-LD — pages using this template should add a separate <code><schema-jsonld></code> block referencing the same author and reviewer.

For author/reviewer bio pages themselves (Paul Danziger, Rod De Llano, Michelle Whitman), use [[Template:LegalReviewer]] instead — that template produces a floating infobox suitable for bio pages.

<pre>
{{LegalAuthorship
| author = Rod De Llano
| author_role = Founding Partner
| author_bar = 00786666
| reviewer = Paul Danziger
| reviewer_role = Co-Founding Partner
| reviewer_bar = 00788880
| last_reviewed = 2026-05-20
}}
</pre>

All parameters are required. Place at the bottom of the page content, after the body but before the <code>== References ==</code> section. The template adds the page to [[:Category:Legal Reviewed]].
