Development of Creative Commons licenses

"<x-tad-smaller>to the extent reasonably practicable, the Uniform Resource Identifier, if any, that Licensor specifies to be associated with the Work, unless such URI does not refer to the copyright notice or licensing information for the Work;"

to require a link back, you simply have to specify the link. so some language like "provide linkback to http://yoururlhere.com" near your some rights reserved button would probably do it.

thanks
