• Hi! You were asking about copyright - re-writing your content in your own words is always the best option when pulling material from sourcing. Offhand though, which source did you take the material from? It looks like it was taken from the Wikipedia article on polygyny, so be very careful about sites that mirror Wikipedia, as Wikipedia cannot source itself.
