Requirements for contributors
Each contributor to the Re.ViCa wiki must agree that the material they supply is written by themselves, or copied from a public domain or similar free resource.
Under the usual rules of copyright, quotations from other works can be made, provided that the quote is referenced.
It is also a matter of courtesy that when contributors copy material "en bloc" from Wikipedia or similar collections of public material in any language that they acknowledge the source of their information.
Contributors should also consider "putting something back" to the OER community, and in particular not getting upset when someone else uses their material to e.g. update or create a page on Wikipedia.
