This is something I’ve been wondering about for a while: Can you take Wikipedia content, repackage it, and sell it (in ebook form, for example)? Is that legal? I did some digging and here’s what I found out.

Just for the record, I think this is nuts. But it is a really well-done article and it is certainly useful for any business that wants to use information from Wikipedia or similar websites in their communications materials.
