A lot of accounts are being permanently banned for copy and pasting.   Undecided

Copying someone else's work is stealing - by taking away the page view on their site, you take away their revenue.

You can reference information on another webpage, but you should paste only a few paragraphs (minority of the article) in a Quote tag, and immediately link to the source.

Example:

Quote
I was once a devoted Catholic. From when I was a little kid playing Lego to when I was a young adult stressed out about the future, I was a proud believer.

I still remember how it was to study in a Catholic school. Every class starts and ends with a prayer. Every day at twelve noon everyone recites the Angelus. Every first Friday of the month there was a campus-wide mass. Apparently, praying was a casual habit for me back then.

Why rewrite is also prohibited? I ever rewrote someone else article once, and my work rejected.
