Regulation PR-2010-013 by the Editorial Council (12 Dec 2010):

Importation of articles

The importation of articles copied from other sources, in particular from other Internet encylopedias such as Wikipedia, is not allowed.

The only exceptions to this general rule are

  • articles written originally almost entirely by the Citizen who imports them and who, in addition, is also an active contributor, and
  • specific articles that are explicitly accepted by the Editorial Council.

Remark:
Of course, any available source—including Wikipedia—may be used in a professional manner to find information and inspiration.
