If you want to import media (including text) that you have found elsewhere, and it does not meet the non-free content policy and guideline , you can only do so if it is public domain or available under terms that are compatible with the CC BY-SA license. If you import media under a compatible license which requires attribution, you must, in a reasonable fashion, credit the author(s). You must also in most cases verify that the material is compatibly licensed or public domain. If the original source of publication contains a copyright disclaimer or other indication that the material is free for use, a link to it on the media description page or the article's talk page may satisfy this requirement. If you obtain special permission to use a copyrighted work from the copyright holder under compatible terms, you must make a note of that fact (along with the relevant names and dates) and verify this through one of several processes.

'''Never''' use materials that infringe the copyrights of others. This could create legal liabilities and seriously hurt Chalo Chatu. If in doubt, write the content yourself, thereby creating a new copyrighted work which can be included in
Chalo Chatu without trouble.
