Hello,
My name is Damon and I am a high school student in Florida. I have gotten
approval from my teacher and principal to create an online newspaper for our
school covering mostly US and some International news. My question is, is
it ok to reuse the wikinews data as my source of news for the school website
?
Thank you
Damon
