::::::::: a slightly awkward question - what is WikiIslam's stance on copying information from one page to another? I am finding that sometimes its seems best to copy a paragraph from an existing page to use in the page one is writing. Normally this would be plagiarism, but something about the Wiki structure and ethos suggests that it may be acceptable, after all, if someone has expressed something perfectly on pageX then maybe it's not a bad thing to use that perfection on page y, which one is in the process of writing. Moreover isn't the content of WikiIslam essentially the intellectual 'property' of WikiIslam, not the individual editors? Could you clarify WikiIslam's stance on this please?

::::::::::Copying content between articles on wikiislam (but not from other websites) is perfectly fine and even necessary at this stage in the wiki's development. you can share the links for the images you want to host on wikiislam with me here (if they are already somewhere else on the web), or just email them to '''''admin'''''[at]'''''wikiislam'''''[dot]'''''net''''' and I'll upload them. I'll just name the images by whatever the file you share is titled. | |||
