You need a little bit of inspiration???
You are writing a great article about a museum in Joensuu or recommending a nice restaurant in Székesfehérvár? And you need some inspiration? You want to check the basics about a city, find some ideas of the top sights of a town?

Just feel free to use the content of the following websites:
• http://www.travellerspoint.com
That are creative networks and webpages, from where you can legally “copy and paste” articles. Earth.org joined a license, which allows to reuse all this stuff for our travel guide.
Check it out, mash it up or just copy and paste it to spread the word about the world’s greatest locations with us!
Afterwards just enter the link of the website you used for writing your article:
It is so easy! Have fun with it!

we have a text that is quoted from http://www.happylandtvm.com but I suspect this is not a CC site.
Two points:
1. I think the user can make confusion between a CC site and a normal site from where he as copied. So that he may think that it is sufficient to past the link and everything is fine
2. How shall I deal with this article? Shall I delete it or leave it?

Thanks again to you Eva, super! @valentinyeo, @alfreda – perhaps we could add the screencast-videos, which are already on YouTube, as a nice small guide for how to use CC-content somewhere in the editing box of the articles. Just to show userfriendly how much sources are there and how to use them. I personally think the short video expalins more then much text. What do you think?

I suggest to have a tutorial section in “About us” and link it in the help and in other pages also as Rafael suggest.

sorry guys i don’t wanna get on your nerves. while the screencast is good work i am fairly critical as to wether this is time spent well. the screen where the editor is is going to be changed quite soon. that means you have to do it again… the site is morphing so much these days.
