Hi

I understand that copyrights matter

but i saw this wiki article "Copying text from other sources"

here's the link to that specific text Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources#:~:text=CC BY-SA 1.0, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 it says it can accept contents that are provided with (CC-BY-SA), v2.5 and the edits that i did was from MDN Docs and they provide their docs under (CC-BY-SA), v2.5

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/MDN/About#copyrights_and_licenses

Documentation and articles

an extract from that MDN Site

and there is some criteria for that given by them

"When reusing MDN content, you need to ensure two things:

1. Attribution is given to the original content. Please attribute "Mozilla Contributors" and include a hyperlink (online) or URL (in print) to the specific wiki page for the content being sourced. For example, to provide attribution for this article, you can write:

   About MDN by Mozilla Contributors is licensed under CC-BY-SA 2.5.

   Note that in the example, "Mozilla Contributors" links to the history of the cited page. See Best practices for attribution for further explanation.
2. Your reuse is published under the same license as the original content—CC-BY-SA v2.5 or any later version."

I cited the content to their site but not in the right way they said i just put the link of the article in the cite

i am sorry for that

now I will keep all in mind ^😀
