Thanks for your replys to my initial mail (see below).

I guess, that leaves us with the most freedom desired, right? I'll
import one article of Kstars Astroinfo into Wikipedia, add a line about
where this article originates from and ask John Harris,
the author of Astroinfo, if that's OK with him. I hope, he'll answer
this time...

Quoting Tobias Hoevekamp <tobias.hoevekamp(a)ilw.agrl.ethz.ch>ch>:
Hi there!
It's been discussed several times at wikipedia but I am still
clueless on what actually has to be stated in order to include
GFDLed third-party texts.
I would like to build into wikipedia some of the information given
at
http://kstars.sourceforge.net/handbook/astroinfo.html which is
part of Kstars GFDLed handbook and explains various
astronomical concepts. The author, Jason Harris, didn't reply
to my inquiry about including it in wikipedia but that is - as
far as I understand the GFDL correct - not neccessary...
Hmm. How shall I proceed?
Bye,
Tobias
