جهانی را تصور کنید که در آن هر انسانی بتواند آزادانه سهمی از کل دانش داشته باشد. این تعهد ماست. –بیانیهٔ چشمانداز مااستفاده همگی از کره ی خاکی رو داشته باشن ما به عنوان خدمتگذار وظیفه داریم زیست و زندگی را در سازنده ترین حالتش قرار بدیم
به ویکیمدیا خوش آمدید! بنیاد ویکیمدیا («ما» یا «بنیاد»)، سازمان خیریهٔ ناسودبری است
برای حمایت کردن از جامعهٔ پرجنبوجوشمان، ما زیرساختهای ضروری و چهارچوبهای سازمانی برای توسعهٔ پروژههای ویکی چندزبانه و نسخههایشان (همانطور که درصفحهٔ پروژههای ویکیمدیا توضیح داده شده) (که در اینجا از آن با عنوان «پروژهها» یاد میشود) و نیز سایر کوششهایی که در خدمت این مأموریت هستند را فراهم میکنیم. ما تلاش میکنیم تا مطالب آموزنده و مفید پروژهها را بر روی اینترنت رایگان و برای همیشه نگه داریم.
ما از شما («شما» یا «کاربر») بهعنوان مخاطب یا مشارکتکننده در پروژههای ویکیمدیا استقبال میکنیم، و شما را تشویق میکنیم که به جامعهٔ ویکیمدیا بپیوندید. با این حال، پیش از شروع مشارکت، از شما میخواهیم که لطفاً «شرایط استفاده» که در ذیل آمده را بخوانید و با آنها موافقت کنید.
این شرایط استفاده، اطلاعاتی دربارهٔ خدمات عمومی ما در بنیاد ویکیمدیا، رابطهٔ ما با شما به عنوان کاربر، و حقوق و مسئولیتهای متقابل ما نسبت به یکدیگر در اختیار شما قرار میدهد. میخواهیم شما بدانید که ما مقادیر باورنکردنی از مطالب آگاهکننده و آموزشی را میزبانی میکنیم، که تمامی آنها با مشارکت کاربرانی همچون خود شما به وجود آمده و امکان پذیر شدهاست. معمولاً ما در تولید، حذف، یا بازبینی مطالب دخالت نمیکنیم (مگر در موارد استثنائی نادری چون سیاستها مانند همین شرایط استفاده یا انطباق قانونی با بندهایقانون حق تکثیر هزاره دیجیتال). این بدین معناست که کنترل ویراستاری متون در دستان خود شما و کاربرانی همچون شماست که مطالب را به وجود آورده و مدیریت میکنند. ما تنها این مطالب را میزبانی میکنیم.
جامعه - شبکهای از کاربران که پیوسته در حال ساخت یا استفاده از سایتها یا پروژههای گوناگون هستند - وسیلهٔ اصلی برای نیل به اهداف مأموریتمان است. جامعه در سایتهای ما مشارکت میکند و در هدایت آنها کمکمان میکند. جامعه وظیفهٔ خطیر به وجود آوردن و اجرا نمودن سیاستها برای پروژههای معین (مثلاً زبانهای مختلف پروژهٔ ویکیپدیا یا پروژهٔ چندزبانهٔ ویکی انبار) را برعهده دارد.
از پیوستن شما به پروژههای مستقل به عنوان مشارکتکننده، ویرایشگر، یا پدیدآور استقبال میشود اما باید از سیاستهای حاکم بر آن پروژهها پیروی کنید. بزرگترین پروژهٔ ما ویکیپدیاست، اما پروژههای دیگری را نیز میزبانی میکنیم، که هر کدام هدف و شیوهٔ کار مختص به خود را دارد. هر پروژه تیمی از مشارکتکنندگان، ویرایشگران یا پدیدآورندگان دارد که با همدیگر کار میکنند تا به تولید و مدیریت محتوا در آن پروژه بپردازند. از پیوستن شما به این تیمها و همکاری جهت بهبود آنها استقبال میشود. از آنجا که هدف ما تولید محتواییاست که آزادانه در دسترس عموم باشد، معمولاً نیاز داریم که تمامی مطالبی که شما در آن مشارکت کردهاید تحت مجوزی آزاد و یا تحت مالکیت عموم در دسترس قرار بگیرد.
آگاه باشید که از نظر قانونی شما خودتان مسئول تمام مشارکتها، ویرایشها، و استفادهتان از مطالب ویکیمدیا تحت قوانین ایالات متحده و سایر قوانین قابل اطلاق (که ممکن است شامل قوانین جایی که در آنجا زندگی میکنید یا جایی که مطالب را میبینید یا ویرایش میکنید نیز بشود) هستید. این بدین معنیاست که باید به هنگام فرستادن مطالب احتیاط کنید. با توجه به این مسئولیت،ما قوانینی درباره ی آنچه نمیتوان فرستاد داریم، که بیشترشان برای محافظت از خود شما و یا محافظت از دیگر کاربرانی که همانند خود شما هستند میباشد. لطفاً به یاد داشته باشید که مطالبی که ما میزبانی میکنیم فقط برای مقاصد اطلاعرسانی عمومیاست، بنابراین اگر در مورد یک موضوع خاص به توصیه یک متخصص نیاز دارید (مثلاً مسائل پزشکی، حقوقی یا اقتصادی)، باید از یک متخصص واجد شرایط و دارای جواز کمک بجویید. همچنین سایر تکذیبنامهها و تذکرات مهم را در ادامه آوردهایم، بنابراین لطفاً این شرایط استفاده را کامل بخوانید.
برای روشن شدن موضوع، سازمانهای دیگر، از قبیل انجمنها وشعبههای محلی ویکیمدیا، با وجود آنکه ممکن است اهدافی مشابه ما داشته باشند، از نظر قانونی مستقل و مجزا از بنیاد ویکیمدیا هستند و مسئولیتی در قبال گرداندن وبگاه و یا محتوایش ندارند.
بنیاد ویکیمدیا به پیشبرد رشد، توسعه و توزیع محتوای آزاد چندزبانه، و میزبانی کردن تمامی این محتواهای برآمده از پروژههای مبتنی بر ویکی به صورت رایگان و برای عموم اختصاص دارد. نقش ما میزبانی کردن از برخی از بزرگترین پروژههای مرجع قابل ویرایش توسط عموم است که دراینجا در دسترس هستند. با این وجود، ما تنها به عنوان میزبان عمل میکنیم و از زیرساختها و چهارچوبهای سازمان نگهداری میکنیم که کاربران را قادر میسازد تا با مشارکت و ویرایش مطالب، خودشان پروژههای ویکیمدیا را بسازند. به خاطر این نقش منحصر به فردی که داریم، چند نکته است که به هنگام در نظر گرفتن رابطه با شما، پروژهها و دیگر کاربران باید از آنها آگاه باشید:
As used throughout the rest of the Terms of Use, our services consist of:The Project Websites we host, technological infrastructure that we maintain, and any technical spaces that we host for the maintenance and improvement of our Projects.
Because of our unique role, there are a couple of things you should be aware of when considering our relationship to you, the Projects, and other users:
از شما میخواهیم که شرایطسیاست حفظ اسرارمان را بررسی کنید تا با نحوهٔ جمعآوری و استفاده از اطلاعاتتان توسط ما آشنا شوید. از آنجا که خدمات ما در سراسر جهان مورد استفاده قرار میگیرد، اطلاعات شخصیای که جمعآوری میکنیم ممکن است در ایالات متحدهٔ آمریکا یا هر کشور دیگری که ما یا نمایندگانمان تسهیلاتمان را در آنجا نگه میداریم ذخیره و پردازش شود. با استفاده از خدمات ما، شما با هرگونه از چنین انتقالهای اطلاعاتیای به بیرون از کشورتان موافقت میکنید.
پروژههایی که توسط بنیاد ویکیمدیا میزبانی میشوند تنها به کمک جامعهٔ پرجنبوجوشی از کاربرانی همچون خود شما که در نوشتن، ویرایش، و نگهداری مطالب با یکدیگر همکاری میکنند ممکن شدهاست. ما با مسرت از مشارکت شما در این جامعه استقبال میکنیم و درعین حال شما را ترغیب میکنیم به اینکه در تعامل با سایر اعضای این جامعه، نزاکت و ادب را رعایت کنید، با حسن نیت رفتار کنید و ویرایشها و مشارکتهایتان در راستای پیشبرد پروژه به سوی اهدافش باشد.
برخی اعمال، چه قانونی و چه غیرقانونی، ممکن است برای سایر کاربران مضر باشد و قوانین ما را نقض کند و برخی دیگر ممکن است خود شما در معرض پذیرفتن مسسولیت قرار دهد. بنابراین، برای حفظات از خود شما و سایر کاربران، شما نمیتوانید به برخی فعالیتها در وبگاههای ما بپردازید. این فعالیتها شامل موارد ذیل میباشند:
Undisclosed editing by users receiving compensation creates an unreasonable burden on volunteer editorswho investigate and enforce community policies. Therefore, for violations of this section related to undisclosed paid editing, you agree to submit to binding "Med-Arb" (a "Marketing Company Mediation") as described in section 14 of these Terms of Use.
ما حق خود را برای اِعمال رأی خود با توجه به شرایط بالا محفوظ میدانیم.
شما مسئول حفظ امنیت گذرواژهتان هستید و نباید آن را برای هیچ شخص ثالثی افشا کنید.
اگرچه شما آزادیهای قابل توجهی برای استفاده مجدد از محتوای وبگاههای پروژه دارید، مهم است بدانید که در بنیاد ویکیمدیا، ما حقوق نشانهای تجاریمان را محفوظ میدانیم، بنابراین میتوانیم کاربرانمان را از جعل کنندگان هویت محافظت کنیم. به همین دلیل، از شما درخواست داریم که نشانهای تجاری ما را محترم بدارید. همهٔ نشانهای تجاری بنیاد ویکیمدیا متعلق به بنیاد ویکیمدیا هستند، و هر گونه استفاده از نام تجاری، نشانهای تجاری، نشانهای سرویس، آرم و لوگو، و یا نام دامنهٔ ما باید با این شرایطِ استفاده منطبق باشد و در تطابق باسیاست نشانهای تجاری ما.
برای رشدِ دانش و فرهنگِ آزادِ مشترک، لازم است همهٔ کاربرانِ مشارکتکننده در پروژهها، مجوزهای گستردهای را برای مشارکتهای خود به عموم مردم اعطا کنند تا همه بتوانند آنها را آزادانه بازتوزیع کرده و یا مجدداً استفاده کنند، به شرطی که این استفاده، مناسب محسوب شود و همان آزادیها برای استفادهٔ دوباره و بازتوزیع به همهٔ آثارِ مشتق شده اعطا شود. در راستای هدفمان یعنی ارائهٔ اطلاعات آزاد به گستردهترین مخاطبان ممکن، نیاز داریم که در صورت نیاز، تمام محتوای ارائه شده دارای چنان مجوزی باشد که توسط هرکسی که مایل است، آزادانه قابل استفادهٔ مجدد باشد.
شما با شرایط اجازهنامهای زیر موافقت میکنید:
Text to which you hold the copyright: When you submit text to which you hold the copyright, you agree to license it under:
Reusers may comply with either license or both.
The only exception is if the Project edition or feature requires a different license. In that case, you agree to license any text you contribute under the particular license prescribed by the Project edition or the feature.
Please note that these licenses do allow commercial uses of your contributions, as long as such uses are compliant with the terms of the respective licenses. Where you own Sui Generis Database Rights covered by CC BY-SA 4.0, you waive these rights. As an example, this means facts you contribute to the projects may be reused freely without attribution.
You agree that, if you import text under a CC license that requires attribution, you must credit the author(s) in a reasonable fashion. Where such credit is commonly given through page histories (such as Wikimedia-internal copying), it is sufficient to give attribution in the edit summary, which is recorded in the page history, when importing the text. The attribution requirements are sometimes too intrusive for particular circumstances (regardless of the license), and there may be instances where the Wikimedia community decides that imported text cannot be used for that reason.
When you reuse or redistribute a text page developed by the Wikimedia community, you agree to attribute the authors in any of the following fashions:
If the text content was imported from another source, it is possible that the content is licensed under a compatible CC BY-SA license but not GFDL (as described in "Importing text," above). In that case, you agree to comply with the compatible CC BY-SA license and do not have the option to relicense it under GFDL. To determine the license that applies to the content that you seek to reuse or redistribute, you should review the page footer, page history, and discussion page.
In addition, please be aware that text that originated from external sources and was imported into a Project may be under a license that attaches additional attribution requirements. Users agree to indicate these additional attribution requirements clearly. Depending on the Project, such requirements may appear, for example, in a banner or other notations pointing out that some or all of the content was originally published elsewhere. Where there are such visible notations, reusers should preserve them.
For any non-text media, you agree to comply with the applicable license under which the work has been made available (which can be discovered by clicking on the work and looking at the licensing section on its description page or reviewing an applicable source page for that work). When reusing any content that we host, you agree to comply with the relevant attribution requirements as they pertain to the underlying license or licenses.
If you believe that content on Wikipedia violates intellectual property rights, it can be reported to the Wikimedia Foundation following our illegal content reporting process (see section 10 below).
Please note that due to the harmonization of international copyright law, in many cases it will be possible to submit a notice of copyright violation under either your local law or US law. To be valid under US law, a copyright notice must follow the requirements of the DMCA, listed below.
We will terminate, in appropriate circumstances, users and account holders of our system and network who are repeat infringers on our Projects and services.
The Wikimedia Foundation wants to ensure that the content that we host can be reused by other users without fear of liability and that it is not infringing the proprietary rights of others. In fairness to our users, as well as to other creators and copyright holders, our policy is to respond to notices of alleged infringement that comply with the formalities of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"). Pursuant to the DMCA, we will terminate, in appropriate circumstances, users and account holders of our system and network who are repeat infringers on our Projects and services.
However, we also recognize that not every takedown notice is valid or in good faith. In such cases, we strongly encourage users to file counter-notifications when they appropriately believe a DMCA takedown demand is invalid or improper. For more information on what to do if you think a DMCA notice has been improperly filed, you may wish to consult theLumen Database website.
If you are the owner of content that is being improperly used on one of the Projects without your permission, you may request that the content be removed by filing a notice under the DMCA. To make such a request, please email us atlegal
wikimedia
org orsnail mail our designated agent.
Alternatively, you may make a request to our community, which often handles copyright issues faster and more effectively than the process prescribed under the DMCA. In that case, you can post a notice explaining your copyright concerns. For a non-exhaustive and non-authoritative list of the relevant processes for the different Project editions,visit the Copyright Problems page. Before filing a DMCA claim, you also have the option of sending an email to the community atinfo
wikimedia
org.
You are solely responsible for your use of any third-party websites or resources. Although the Projects and Project Websites contain links to third-party websites and resources, we do not endorse and are not responsible or liable for their availability, accuracy, or the related content, products, or services (including, without limitation, any viruses or other disabling features), nor do we have any obligation to monitor such third-party content.
The community has the primary role in creating and enforcing policies applying to the different Project editions. At the Wikimedia Foundation, we rarely intervene in community decisions about policy and its enforcement.
It is possible to notify us of illegal content, or content that violates our Terms of Use (including all policies and other documents incorporated by reference) for other reasonsby contacting us directly. However, you can typically make a request directly to the Project's community: this may be more efficient, and is more consistent with our Projects' aim to empower the user community. Please note that this contact method functions as the Foundation’s grievance redressal mechanism for all jurisdictions that require one. Grievances submitted through this contact will be reviewed, in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Each Project will usually provide "Help" or "Contact" pages for further guidance, or specific tools for reporting issues. Alternatively – if in doubt – you can ask members of the community for help, by sending an email toinfo
wikimedia
org or a more language-specific address from theVolunteer Response Team page. Please note that these mailboxes are monitored by users of the Projects, not the Foundation. As a result, they should not be threatened or issued with legal demands.
If you contact the Foundation with a problem, we will typically explore whether and how existing community-led mechanisms can investigate and, where appropriate, resolve it.
In an unusual case, the need may arise, or the community may ask us, to address an especially problematic user or especially problematic content because of significant Project disturbance or dangerous behavior. In such cases, we reserve the right, at our sole discretion (or where legally compelled), to:
Those Foundation moderation activities may be informed or performed by software (such as traffic flood ("Denial of Service") protection). In those cases human review is normally available,upon request.
In the interests of our users and the Projects, in the extreme circumstance that any individual has had their account or access blocked under this section, they are prohibited from creating or using another account on or seeking access to the same Project, unless we provide explicit permission. Without limiting the authority of the community, the Foundation itself will not ban a user from editing or contributing or block a user's account or access solely because of good faith criticism that does not result in actions otherwise violating these Terms of Use or community policies.
The Wikimedia community and its members may also take action when so allowed by the community or Foundation policies applicable to the specific Project edition, including but not limited to warning, investigating, blocking, or banning users who violate those policies. You agree to comply with the final decisions of dispute resolution bodies that are established by the community for the specific Project editions (such as arbitration committees); these decisions may include sanctions as set out by the policy of the specific Project edition.
Especially problematic users who have had accounts or access blocked on multiple Project editions may be subject to a ban from all of the Project editions, in accordance with theGlobal Ban Policy. In contrast to Board resolutions or these Terms of Use, policies established by the community, which may cover a single Project edition or multiple Projects editions (like the Global Ban Policy), may be modified by the relevant community according to its own procedures.
The blocking of an account or access or the banning of a user under this provision shall be in accordance with Section 13 of these Terms of Use.
If you believe we have not satisfactorily acted on a problematic content report, or if you have been subjected to a Foundation moderation action that you wish to challenge, you may be able tosubmit an appeal. Other information about routes of appeal may also be explained to you at the time, or in Project-specific help pages.
We reserve the right to suspend (temporarily, or permanently) our handling of reports or other correspondence from users or third parties, whether about allegedly illegal or otherwise problematic content or conduct, or requesting appeals against moderation actions, if such correspondence was made in bad faith, repetitive, unfounded, and/or abusive. In appropriate circumstances, your email address may even be blocked on our email system(s), and you will then need to contact usat our postal address if you wish to further correspond with us during that block. For less serious cases (e.g. up to three polite emails about one or more meritless complaints), this is likely to be temporary. More frequent or more abusive communications are more likely to lead to permanent measures. Additional information for persons in the EU can be found onour page about EU compliance and reporting.
The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trusteesreleases official policies from time to time. Some of these policies may be mandatory for a particular Project or Project edition, and, when they are, you agree to abide by them as applicable.
We make available a set of APIs, which include documentation and associated tools, to enable users to build products that promote free knowledge. By using our APIs, you agree to abide by all applicable policies governing the use of the APIs, which include but are not limited to theUser-Agent Policy, theRobot Policy, and theAPI:Etiquette (collectively, "API Documentation"), which are incorporated into these Terms of Use by reference.
Though we hope you will stay and continue to contribute to the Projects, you can stop using our services any time. In certain (hopefully unlikely) circumstances it may be necessary for either ourselves or the Wikimedia community or its members (as described in Section 10) to terminate part or all of our services, terminate these Terms of Use, block your account or access, or ban you as a user. If your account or access is blocked or otherwise terminated for any reason, your public contributions and a record of your activities on or in relation to the Projects (including any correspondence you have sent us) will be unaffected (subject to applicable policies), and you may still access our public pages for the sole purpose of reading publicly available content on the Projects. In such circumstances, however, you may not be able to access your account or settings. However, regardless of any other provision in these Terms of Use, we reserve the right to suspend or end the services at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice. Even after your use and participation are banned, blocked or otherwise suspended, these Terms of Use will remain in effect with respect to relevant provisions, including Sections 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9-16, and 18.
We hope that no serious disagreements arise involving you, but, in the event there is a dispute, we encourage you to seek resolution through the dispute resolution procedures or mechanisms provided by the Projects or Project editions and the Wikimedia Foundation. If you seek to file a legal claim against us, you agree to file and resolve it exclusively in a state or federal court located in San Francisco County, California. You also agree that the laws of the State of California and, to the extent applicable, the laws of the United States of America will govern these Terms of Use, as well as any legal claim that might arise between you and us (without reference to conflict of laws principles). You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of, and agree that venue is proper in, the courts located in San Francisco County, California, in any legal action or proceeding relating to us or these Terms of Use.
To ensure that disputes are dealt with soon after they arise, you agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action you might have arising out of or related to use of our services or these Terms of Use must be filed within the applicable statute of limitations or, if earlier, one (1) year after the pertinent facts underlying such claim or cause of action could have been discovered with reasonable diligence (or be forever barred). If "choice of forum" clauses like the one above are not accepted by the courts where you normally reside, then (i) our choice of forum clause, above, shall be ignored, and (ii) you can refer any dispute to the courts of the jurisdiction where you normally live, following the applicable law rules of those courts. Similarly, if applicable law does not allow the enforcement of the choice of law in this section, then you can resolve a dispute according to the choice of law rules in the court of competent jurisdiction.
Marketing Company Mediations
As described in section 4 of these Terms of Use, you agree to resolve violations of the Paid Contributions without Disclosure in a Marketing Company Mediation at the Foundation's discretion. Marketing Company Mediations arebinding mediations where, at the end of either a half or full day session, any disputed items that remain unresolved will be decided by the mediator in a legally binding decision. They will be conducted in meetings by teleconference or videoconference. If an in-person meeting is required, then the Marketing Company Mediation will take place in San Francisco County, California. The parties will split all fees and expenses related to the mediation/arbitration equally.
You agree, as part of a Marketing Company Mediation, to cooperate with the Foundation, including by timely providing any documentation in your possession relating to your undisclosed paid editing activities including the accounts used, articles affected, and clients who purchased such services.
Marketing Company Mediations are subject to and governed by the Federal Arbitration Act to the extent that the mediator becomes an arbitrator. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its attorneys' fees (including all fees necessary to determine the applicability of the Marketing Company Mediation and to enforce the binding result) and all costs relating to the investigation and enforcement of its rights. A party may be deemed "prevailing" even if it is not successful on every claim asserted.
If for some reason the entirety of these Marketing Company Mediation requirements are found to be unenforceable, you agree to resolve any disputes as described in the beginning of this section.

At the Wikimedia Foundation, we do our best to provide educational and informational content to a very wide audience, but your use of our services is at your sole risk. We provide these services on an "as is" and "as available" basis, and we expressly disclaim all express or implied warranties of all kinds, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We make no warranty that our services will meet your requirements, be safe, secure, uninterrupted, timely, accurate, or error-free, or that your information will be secure.
We are not responsible for the content, data, or actions of third parties, and you release us, our directors, officers, employees, and agents from any claims and damages, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with any claim you have against any such third parties. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by you from us or through or from our services creates any warranty not expressly stated in these Terms of Use.
Any material downloaded or otherwise obtained through your use of our services is done at your own discretion and risk, and you will be solely responsible for any damage to your computer system or loss of data that results from the download of any such material. You agree that we have no responsibility or liability for the deletion of, or the failure to store or to transmit, any content or communication maintained by the service.

The Wikimedia Foundation will not be liable to you or to any other party for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, including but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses, regardless of whether we were advised of the possibility of such damage. In no event shall our liability exceed one thousand U.S. dollars (US$1,000.00) in aggregate. In the case that applicable law may not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability or incidental or consequential damages, the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you, although our liability will be limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
Just as the Wikimedia community's input is essential for the growth and maintenance of the Projects, we believe that community input is essential for these Terms of Use to properly serve our users. It is also essential for a fair contract. Therefore, we will provide these Terms of Use, as well as any substantial future revisions of these Terms of Use, to the community for comment at least thirty (30) days before the end of the comment period. If a future proposed revision is substantial, we will provide an additional 30 days for comments after posting a translation of the proposed revision in at least three languages (selected at our discretion). The community will be encouraged to translate the proposed revision in other languages as appropriate. For changes for legal or administrative reasons, to correct an inaccurate statement, or changes in response to community comments, we will provide at least three (3) days' notice.
Because it may be necessary to modify these Terms of Use from time to time, we will provide notice of such modifications and the opportunity to comment via the Project websites, and via a notification onWikimediaAnnounce-l. However, we ask that you please periodically review the most up-to-date version of these Terms of Use. Your continued use of our services after the new Terms of Use become official following the notice and review period constitutes an acceptance of these Terms of Use on your part. For the protection of the Wikimedia Foundation and other users like yourself, if you do not agree with our Terms of Use, you cannot use our services.
These Terms of Use do not create an employment, agency, partnership, joint control or joint venture relationship between you and us, the Wikimedia Foundation. For the purposes of European Economic Area law, United Kingdom law, or other laws that involve a similar concept, you are not acting "under the authority of" the Foundation when you use the services. If you have not signed a separate agreement with us, these Terms of Use are the entire agreement between you and us. If there is any conflict between these Terms of Use and a signed written agreement between you and us, the signed agreement will control.
You agree that we may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to the Terms of Use, by email, regular mail, or postings on the Projects or Project Websites.
If in any circumstance, we do not apply or enforce any provision of these Terms of Use, it is not a waiver of that provision.
You understand that, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by us, you have no expectation of compensation for any activity, contribution, or idea that you provide to us, the community, or the Projects or Project editions.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in these Terms of Use, we (the Wikimedia Foundation) and you agree not to modify the applicable terms and requirements of any free license that is employed on the Projects or Project editions when such free license is authorized by these Terms of Use.
These Terms of Use were written in English (U.S.). While we hope that translations of these Terms of Use are accurate, in the event of any differences in meaning between the original English version and a translation, the original English version takes precedence.
If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms of Use is found unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms of Use and will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and all other provisions of these Terms of Use will remain in full force and effect.
We appreciate your taking the time to read these Terms of Use, and we are very happy to have you contributing to the Projects and using our services. Through your contributions, you are helping to build something really big – not only an important collection of collaboratively edited reference Projects that provides education and information to millions who might otherwise lack access, but also a vibrant community of like-minded and engaged peers, focused on a very noble goal.
These Terms of Use went into effect on June 7, 2023. Previous versions of the terms:
