Christmas

[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Christmas, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material.

Hello, Thank you. I am not sure if this is the right place to write this for you to see it? Anyway, it is an excerpt from my family's website, so it is okay. What should I do?

Hi Tennessee, here is how it works: first of all, the text has to be released under the GFDL license. This will give to everyone the right to use that text, redistribute it and modify it (all the content of Wikipedia is released under this license). You have to be sure you want to do this, since you will lose part of the rights on the text. The only other way to put it on Wikipedia would be to rewrite it using different words. Then, I will send a mail for confirmation to the website, I will forward the confirmation to Wikipedia and you will finally be able to use it. Let me know what you decide. Thank you.
