Hello everyone!
Iam making a website which is very useful for students. In other words the website is for students where they can get help for their home work, study and can read articles. Im alone making this site and its not possible for me to get all articles about history and more. I just want to know that can i copy text from wikipedia.ord and can place it on my website with their logo in the end of every article. Because i went to their copyright policy here it says that we are completely allowed to use their texts but i was afraid and would like to ask someone who already own a website and know about the copyright policies better. Thankyou
