- I simply wanted to say what The Centre de réadaptation Estrie (CRE) is all about. I didn't want to promote my company because we are non-profit. I only wanted to do an informative text. In addition, it is true that the content was copied from the the official website: I wrote It ! Do I have to ask myself the permission to post it on wiki ? I don't understand what I should do to put neutral content about The CRE on Wiki even when I read your guide line. Can you help me please ?
- You are correct that if you own copyright of the text you can release it under any license you wish. It would nonetheless require proof that this is actually the case seeing that the text was already published elsewhere. It doesn't really matter though: Any text that is taken directly from any organizations official website is inherently non-neutral and written with a conflict of interest. Non-profit or not, your intention certainly is to promote the company, and you have a strong conflict of interest regarding this topic.
Wikipedia has a couple of core rules that need to be held high, to make sure the content here remains somewhat useful. One of them is WP:VERIFIABILITY: All facts must be verifiable in independent, reliable sources. Another is Neutral Point of View: Editors must write articles from a neutral point of view, representing all significant views fairly, proportionately, and without bias.
There are some pointers on what you can do and good practices at the FAQ page, see WP:BFAQ#COMPANY.
