Copying material without the permission of the copyright holder from sources that are not public domain or compatibly licensed (unless it's a brief quotation used in accordance with Wikipedia's [[WP:NFC|non-free content policy and guideline]]) is likely to be a [[Copyright infringement|copyright violation]]. Content on other Wikimedia properties is free content, and may be copied, subject to attribution statements that are part of Wikipedia's [[WP:Copyrights|Wikipedia's licensing]] terms.
=== Wikimedia properties ===
{{Main|Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia}}
All content contributed to Wikipedia and [[WP:SISTER|other Wikimedia properties]] is published under the terms of the [[Wikipedia:Text of Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License|Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License]] (CC BY-SA), and may be reused and built upon by anyone. This includes [[WP:CWW|copying material from one Wikipedia article to another]], or [[WP:TFOLWP|translating material]] from another language Wikipedia. [[WP:Copyrights|Wikipedia's licensing]] requires that attribution be given to all users involved in creating and altering the content of a page. This requirement is fulfilled by adding an attribution statement to the [[WP:ES|edit summary]], for all [[WP:CWW|copied]] or [[WP:TFOLWP|translated]] material.
If you notice an article containing a translation from another Wikipedia and there is no [[WP:TFOLWP|attribution]] in an edit summary, you should add one. You may use this model:
: <code><nowiki>NOTE: The previous edit of 22:31, October 32, 2020, contains content translated from the French Wikipedia page at [[:fr:Exact name of French page]]; see its history for attribution.</nowiki></code>
This is per [[WP:Copyrights|Wikipedia's licensing]] which requires such attribution. For further details, please see [[Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia#Repairing insufficient attribution]].

[[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|20px|Caution|link=]] Although we have a system in place to automatically detect [[WP:COPYVIO|copyright violations]], it ''misses a large number of them''. 100% reliance should never be placed on bots, which can also produce false-positives. [[Copyright infringement]] is a pervasive problem and it is not only important that we not host such material, but it often leads to significant additional work when not caught early. Accordingly, please check all new pages for copying from pre-existing material. Articles about [[WP:ORG|organizations]] and [[WP:Band|music groups]] are especially prone to 'borrowing' content from other sources.
