can i copy paste the articles in wikipedia on my blog/website?

can i copy paste the articles in wikipedia on my blog/website? is it legal? ANSWER TO THE ABOVE QUESTION yes you can use the data from wikipedia on your blog. But its will be safe to leave the copied data in Quotes like " xyz " and leave a comment at the bottom of the page acknowledging that you have extracted some part of data from Wikipedia. but if you copy paste content from other websites/wikipedia you willnot get good ranking on search engines. your website/blog will go back in the search results.
