operators before copying their content. </p><p>The only Wikipedia content you should contact the Wikimedia Foundation about are the trademarked Wikipedia/Wikimedia logos, which are not freely usable without permission. </p><p>Permission to reproduce and modify text on Wikipedia has already been granted to anyone anywhere by the authors of individual articles as long as such reproduction and modification complies with licensing terms (see below and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Mirrors_and_forks" title="Wikipedia:Mirrors and forks">Wikipedia:Mirrors and forks</a> for specific terms). Images may or may not permit reuse and modification; the conditions for reproduction of each image should be individually checked. The only exceptions are those cases in which editors have violated Wikipedia policy by uploading copyrighted material without authorization, or with copyright licensing terms which are incompatible with those Wikipedia authors have applied to the rest of Wikipedia content. While such material is present on Wikipedia (before it is detected and removed), it will be a copyright violation to copy it. For permission to use it, one must contact the owner of the copyright of the text or illustration in question; often, but not always, this will be the original author. </p><p>If you wish to reuse content from Wikipedia, first read the <a href="#Reusers'_rights_and_obligations">Reusers' rights and obligations</a> section.

Some text has been imported only under CC BY-SA and CC BY-SA-compatible license and cannot be reused under GFDL; such text will be identified on the page footer, in the page history, or on the discussion page of the article that utilizes the text. Every image has a description page that indicates the license under which it is released or, if it is non-free, the rationale under which it is used. </p><p>The licenses <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia" title="Wikipedia">Wikipedia</a> uses grant free access to our content in the same sense that <a href="/wiki/Free_software" title="Free software">free software</a> is licensed freely.

Non-text media may be contributed under a variety of different licenses that support the general goal of allowing unrestricted re-use and re-distribution. See <a href="#Guidelines_for_images_and_other_media_files">Guidelines for images and other media files</a>, below. </p><p>If you want to import text that you have found elsewhere or that you have co-authored with others, you can only do so if it is available under terms that are compatible with the CC BY-SA license. You do not need to ensure or guarantee that the imported text is available under the GNU Free Documentation License, unless you are its sole author. Furthermore, please note that you cannot import information which is available only under the GFDL. In other words, you may only import text that is (a) single-licensed under terms compatible with the CC BY-SA license or (b) dual-licensed with the GFDL and another license with terms compatible with the CC BY-SA license. If you are the sole author of the material, you must license it under both CC BY-SA and GFDL. </p><p>If the material, text or media, has been previously published and you wish to donate it to Wikipedia under appropriate license, you will need to verify copyright permission through one of our established procedures. See <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Donating_copyrighted_materials" title="Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials">Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials</a> for details. If you are not a copyright holder, you will still need to verify copyright permission; see the <a href="#Using_copyrighted_work_from_others">Using copyrighted work from others</a> section below. </p><p>You retain copyright to materials you contribute to Wikipedia, text and media.

Generally, Wikipedia must have permission to use copyrighted works. There are some circumstances under which copyrighted works may be legally utilized without permission; see <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content" title="Wikipedia:Non-free content">Wikipedia:Non-free content</a> for specific details on when and how to utilize such material. However, it is our goal to be able to freely redistribute as much of Wikipedia's material as possible, so original images and sound files licensed under CC BY-SA and GFDL (unversioned, with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts) or in the <a href="/wiki/Public_domain" title="Public domain">public domain</a> are greatly preferred to copyrighted media files used under <a href="/wiki/Fair_use" title="Fair use">fair use</a> or otherwise. </p><p>If you want to import media (including text) that you have found elsewhere, and it does not meet the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content" title="Wikipedia:Non-free content">non-free content policy and guideline</a>, you can only do so if it is public domain or available under terms that are compatible with the CC BY-SA license. If you import media under a compatible license which requires attribution, you must, in a reasonable fashion, credit the author(s). You must also in most cases <i>verify</i> that the material is compatibly licensed or public domain. If the original source of publication contains a copyright disclaimer or other indication that the material is free for use, a link to it on the media description page or the article's talk page may satisfy this requirement. If you obtain special permission to use a copyrighted work from the copyright holder under compatible terms, you must make a note of that fact (along with the relevant names and dates) and verify this through one of several processes. See <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Requesting_copyright_permission" title="Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission">Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission</a> for the procedure for asking a copyright holder to grant a usable license for their work and for the processes for verifying that license has been granted. </p><p><b>Never</b> use materials that infringe the copyrights of others. This could create legal liabilities and seriously hurt Wikipedia. If in doubt, write the content yourself, thereby creating a new copyrighted work which can be included in Wikipedia without trouble. </p><p>Note that copyright law governs the creative expression of ideas, <i>not</i> the ideas or information themselves. Therefore, it is legal to read an encyclopedia article or other work, reformulate the concepts in your own words, and submit it to Wikipedia, so long as you do not follow the source too closely. (See our Copyright FAQ for more on <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright#Can_I_add_something_to_Wikipedia_that_I_got_from_somewhere_else?" title="Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright">how much reformulation may be necessary</a> as well as <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright#Derivative_works" title="Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright">the distinction between summary and abridgment</a>.) However, it would still be unethical (but not illegal) to do so without citing the original as a reference (see the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Plagiarism" title="Wikipedia:Plagiarism">plagiarism guideline</a>). <span class="anchor" id="LINKING"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Linking_to_copyrighted_works" data-mw-thread-id="h-Linking_to_copyrighted_works-Contributors'_rights_and_obligations"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Linking_to_copyrighted_works-Contributors'_rights_and_obligations"></span>Linking to copyrighted works<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Linking_to_copyrighted_works-Contributors'_rights_and_obligations"></span></h3></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1252059228"><div class="module-shortcutanchordiv"><span id="WP:COPYLINK"></span><span id="WP:COPYLINKS"></span><span id="WP:LINKVIO"></span></div><div class="module-shortcutboxplain noprint" role="note"><div class="module-shortcutlist"><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Shortcut" title="Wikipedia:Shortcut">Shortcuts</a></div><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1126788409"><div class="plainlist"><ul><li><span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:COPYLINK&redirect=no">WP:COPYLINK</a></span></li><li><span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:COPYLINKS&redirect=no">WP:COPYLINKS</a></span></li><li><span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:LINKVIO&redirect=no">WP:LINKVIO</a></span></li></ul></div></div> <p>Since most recently-created works are copyrighted, almost any Wikipedia article which <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Cite_sources" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Cite sources">cites its sources</a> will link to copyrighted material. It is not necessary to obtain the permission of a copyright holder before linking to copyrighted material, just as an author of a book does not need permission to cite someone else's work in their <a href="/wiki/Bibliography" title="Bibliography">bibliography</a>.

An example would be linking to a site hosting the lyrics of many popular songs without permission from their copyright holders.
