I created the {{tl|Copied from}} template for this just recently. Just put {{tt|<nowiki>{{Copied from|site=Hitparadehalloffame.org|user=~~~~|site user=John Rook}}</nowiki>}} on the talk page of each article. (At least that's what I think you should put, from reading your post above.) That template was designed with other Wikis in mind (hence the name you use on the other site). We can modify it if necessary.
