can someone please tell me what this page fully means. I still don't understand the following

- Am i allowed to directly copy work from a website if it's under this license?
- Do i HAVE to remove it if the author wants me to?
- What if i Re-Phrase the original document? do i still need to follow the author's stuff?
- Do i have to state any credits for the author?

thanks

Well it seems pretty straight forward. You can do as you wish as long as you don't claim it to be your work and you are to credit the author. You are not allowed to lead someone to believe that the author endorsers your site. You should also include a note/link that you are using it as part of the agreement of the "Creative Commons" license. Nor can you use it commercially.

Hope that helps.

hey thanks for the help... but i have 1 last question:
the Original page that the content's located is: http://www.uzumakionline.com/faq/ind...=Ze_Gypsy_Tent
but, i have a link in the page's footer that says Disclaimer and that page has all the credits. Please take a look at both pages and tell me if i did it correctly
http://www.uzumakionline.com/faq/ind...ral_disclaimer

do i have to put in the credits right in the page i copied? or, can i just create another seperate page for the credits and put a LINK on the copied page.. btw, i did state the author's first and last name but do i need to include the URL i got it from?

thanks again (=

If it were me I would have it on the same page. When listing your resources I would include a link. Have a look at Wikipedia and use that as a guide.
