What is the policy about using copyrighted material on Saintapedia?
If you are not a copyright holder for a particular work, as determined by the law, you must obtain copyright permission prior to reusing or reproducing that work. It is Saintapedia policy that posting copyrighted works or substantial excerpts of copyrighted works on the wiki is strictly prohibited unless you have been granted explicit written permission by the copyright owner. However, briefly providing a small excerpt (or brief paraphrase) of an article and providing a link to the article is permissible.
Works in the public domain are the exception, not subject to copyright protection, and may freely be distributed. The user is responsible for determining whether a work is in the public domain, prior to posting it.
This policy is not a substitute for legal advice, and proper legal advice should be obtained when necessary.
