It is almost never suitable to copy content from another web site to Wikipedia, for more than one reason, the most important being copyright. When you post anything to Wikipedia you release it for anyone in the world to reuse it, either unchanged or modified in any way whatever, subject to attribution to Wikipedia. It is very rare that the owner of a web site licenses content for such very free reuse, and in those few occasions when they do so, we require proof of the fact. We don't assume that content is freely licensed on the unsubstantiated say so of just anyone who comes along and creates a Wikipedia account. JBW (talk) 13:57, 28 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi there and thank you for this. I'm unclear which part of the draft you are referring to - I haven't copied and pasted from another website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sam Shrager (talk • contribs) 14:42, 28 February 2020 (UTC)


 * So it was just a remarkable chance coincidence that in writing the spam page you have repeatedly created you wrote a significant proportion of it in exactly the same words as somebody else had written at https://bcbgroup.io/bcb-group-becomes-first-crypto-focused-company-to-be-regulated-as-an-authorised-payment-institution/? Either that or you copied from somewhere; whether from that web page or from another source that was copied to that web page makes no difference at all: the point is that you posted text which was copied from somewhere else, without giving any evidence that the owner of the copyright has released it for free reuse under terms compatible with Wikipedia's licensing.
