Reborn Wikipedia:Quick guide to copying from Wikipedia

In the development of this wiki, there will likely be times where users may wish to copy from the English Wikipedia. In these cases, there are a few thing to consider.

Article rules
 * You should not copy directly from Wikipedia in articles. If you copy from Wikipedia, you need to rephrase the material in your own words. You must also add a link on the article’s talk page to the Diff of the revision you copied from.
 * There is an exception to this rule, and that is with infoboxes. You may directly copy those from Wikipedia, provided you attribute the source in the edit summary. Be prepared for red links, though!

Templates
 * For maintenance purposes, you can directly copy templates from Wikipedia, provided you give proper attribution in the edit summary.

Glossary Proper attribution: A link to the revision you copied the material from. You can get this by going to the revision you copied from and clicking the “permanent link” button.
