 * Anything quoted from en.wikipedia has been contributed under share alike which makes it fair use on any wiki or anything that is not intended for monetary gain. Now, as to the original issue at hand... The content pasted in does not seem to have much educational value in my opinion and did not belong on the wiki in the first place regardless of legality and copyright issues...

ShoeMaker (Contributions &bull; ) 18:20, October 23, 2012 (EDT) I figured that it was describing background details of a dwarf which all races on this wiki has some form of detail it was alright, also the background may be of use to those who like to roleplay in taverns or in cerulian hills and as for copyright; if that is not allowed here then a large majoraty of the information on this wiki is not allowed. What exactly IS supposed to go on this wiki? ( I personally thought that a wiki is supposed to be an educational tool for individuals who have questions about certian topics or a collection of information) -Jarredkh3
