# Copyright policy
|
||
|
||
Alpine Linux Wiki is an open source based project, and all contributions must follow the appropriate
|
||
open source licenses, **the main license of the project will precede all the others when
|
||
the material is original, thus giving credit and real applause to the content creators**,
|
||
or/and only when the content is taken from a place that allows its relicensing or alteration,
|
||
**otherwise measures will be discussed when making the contributions, for this we have the git
|
||
request send and mix mechanism (knowed as Merge Reques or Pull Request)**, check [contribution.md](contribution.md).
|
||
|
||
These contribution rules are particularly important for code the content that is to be
|
||
upstreamed into the wiki, to maintain a clean paper trail of the licensing.
