I see it is working now, though I'm not sure about the publisher term in
this context. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cite_news

If you talk to the NLA person again you could ask them to consider
providing PRISM or Dublin Core metadata, which could be more directly

This has been raised, but isnt a high priority because we're guessing
that most people are going to hit the huge banner.

However, the 'AUD' coming into the WMF is slowly going up.
