You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double
Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners
, for how to cite sources here.

Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper
original research
.

Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is

Please don't remove listing at
WP:CP
or remove the copyright tags from pages

I noticed that you removed a listing from

blocked. Due to the possible legal problems caused if we break copyright laws we take potential problems very seriously and so articles must remain blanked until they are investigated and this will only happen if they remain listed. For similar reasons continuing to introduce copyrighted material, if that is indeed what you are doing (I've not yet had a chance to check myself) will also see you blocked. Please take note of these messages on your talk page and respond to them. No one wants to block you but we will if it becomes necessary to protect the encyclopaedia.
