Here on the Gun Wiki, we have a policy about plagiarizing, as well as with images in certain areas, and in other miscellaneous categories. Under the line there is a list of rules related to copyrights you should follow.


  • Copying and pasting articles from Wikipedia directly to Gun Wiki is not allowed.
  • Please do not use images of replica firearms in articles, unless they are articles relating to replica firearms, or if you identify that it is a replica in a regular article using a caption, or if it is for your userpage.
  • Do not copy text directly from sources for articles. Even if the website allows you to copy the text, the text still needs to be modified.
  • Please do not use pictures that are logos and/or advertisements as official images here, unless the picture is for an article about the site the image was retrieved from. When uploading images, make sure to follow copyright rules.
