Talk:Norway and Denmark conducting observation flights over Belarus and Russia

Copyvio?
I am not sure if it is, but I copy pasted a paragraph from wikipedia almost verbatim. Are we allowed to do that? --Dcabrilo 28 June 2005 15:00 (UTC)
 * In most cases, no, it is not allowed to copy text from Wikipedia into Wikinews articles, because wikinews text must be public domain while wikipedia text is GFDL. If you wrote the text in wikipedia, or the person who wrote it agrees to place their work in the public domain, then it is OK. In this particular case, I actually copied that paragraph into the wikipedia article from a public domain source originally (see Treaty_on_Open_Skies), so it is fine. Thanks for the article. -- Leif 2 July 2005 06:39 (UTC)
