Warhammer 40k:Copying Articles From Wikipedia/Example

Now we'll copy the wikipedia article Kaela Mensha Khaine as an example of how the process works.

Create the article on The Warhammer 40,000 Wiki
First we try to create the article.

However, an article with that name already exists! And so we're given the following error message.

That's alright though, because we can edit this article by clicking the Edit tab. This will bring up a page that looks like this.

Now you need to open the Wikipedia Article.

Open the Wikipedia article
Open the Wikipedia main page, and go to the search box in the left hand column. Enter the name of the article and click Go.

Now click Edit This Page in the upper corner.

This will bring up a text edit box, select all of the text in it (ctrl+a) and copy it to your computer's clipboard (ctrl+c).

Copy the contents
Go back to the Warhammer 40,000 Wiki article you started editing, and paste (ctrl+v) in the contents from Wikipedia. In this case there is already the start of an article, so I've pasted the Wikipedia text at the bottom. It will take a bit of editing to make the two articles into one.
