Davidbuchweitz, they're not literally just copy-and-pasted from the article. – Frood (talk) 04:37, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
Are you saying the wikipedia entry may not at all have content the same as the project website? Davidbuchweitz (talk) 04:39, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
No, I'm saying that you can't violate copyright laws... You might want to read WP:COPYPASTE. – Frood (talk) 04:42, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
How can I be violating copyright laws if it's my own content? Anyway, I'll change the pages. Davidbuchweitz (talk) 04:45, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
Unless you *explicitly* release it under a different license, whoever created the content has exclusive rights to it. WP:DONATETEXT is relevant here. – Frood (talk) 04:50, 10 November 2019 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!
