Use of Wikipedia elsewhere

In response to your question on Talk:Wikipedia:

Wikipedia articles are not in the public domain; rather, they are licensed under the GFDL, and are intended to be reusable elsewhere. (See free content.) People are allowed to use Wikipedia articles in essays, books, and websites, so long as proper attribution is given for specific text.

Some of Wikipedia's images may be in the public domain, licensed under the GFDL, a Creative Commons license, or both. Some images are copyrighted, and are only used because they significantly improve an article in which they appear—"free" images (images that have been licensed so that anyone can reuse, modify, and distribute them) are definitely preferable. You can usually click on an image to find out which license it has. By the way, Wikimedia Commons is a "sister project" of Wikipedia that has huge collection free images that we (and other Wikimedia Foundation projects, such as Wiktionary) use.

If you have any other general questions about Wikipedia, feel free to ask them at the help desk, or possibly start a thread at a relevant village pump. The page Wikipedia:Copyrights (which Pmsyyz linked to) should contain everything you need to know about copyrights in Wikipedia, and how to properly attribute text. Now, on an unrelated note: welcome to Wikipedia! You might want to take a look at some basic stuff, if you have the time: our basic rules, five pillars, and help directory. Feel free to be bold in editing articles. Again, welcome! :) Gracenotes^T § 04:00, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
