So for one of your "showcase" pages, the "Golden AI" plagiarized Wikipedia content and now you are in violation of the CC BY clause Wikipedia uses: https://golden.com/wiki/Product_Hunt/activity/user/golden-ai

How could that happen?

What will happen now?

How will you prevent such copyright violations in the future?

Jude from Golden here.

We attribute to wikipedia in general which is inline with their TOS. Did we miss a place? We say when needed "Text adapted from the Wikipedia page "Product Hunt": https://en.wikipedia.orghttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Produc...

FYI as well the copyright doesn't apply to the actual fact only the text and we give attribution as per their TOS in those cases.

I do not see attribution on https://golden.com/wiki/Product_Hunt

The vast majority of the text on that page is a verbatim copy from Wikipedia. You have to provide appropriate attribution.
