4) The answer for the question “Am I free to copy facts and ideas?” is:

       Yes. You are free to report the facts and ideas embodied in another person’s article or web page. Copyright only protects the expression — the combination of words and structure that expresses the factual information — not the facts themselves.

This means that you can repeat facts and ideas in your own work as long as its put into different wording as the original.
