I was wondering if Paraphrasing or copying from [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_in_Saudi_Arabia here] along with the sources is allowed. Can someone guide me?-[[User:Raman|Raman]] ([[User talk:Raman|talk]]) 16:25, 26 November 2020 (UTC) | I was wondering if Paraphrasing or copying from [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_in_Saudi_Arabia here] along with the sources is allowed.

:Hey Raman, generally speaking, while using Wikipedia as a guide on how to approach a topic is an acceptable way to help you in editing an article, copying text over is not allowed (unless, in some rare case, you actually wish to quote and reference a wikipedia article - though this is generally not advised). General plagiarism rules apply. As for this particular topic and article, you could add a section to the article on the "Modern Implementation" of the law, and provide the details on how it is implemented in Saudi Arabia and maybe give an example case. Since this article is not about specific rape cases and since the wiki doesn't concern itself with "news" related topic in general, do not outright compile specific instances of rape as has been done on the wikipedia article (review the [[WikiIslam:Scope and Article Relevance]] page for further clarification of what does and doesn't fit on the wiki). I hope that helps, let me know if you need any further help. --[[User:IbnPinker|IbnPinker]] ([[User talk:IbnPinker|talk]]) 21:21, 26 November 2020 (UTC) |
