Exclamation Wiki - Is it Legal?


Hi Guys,

I'm a science student.. And i found some good interesting articles about "integration" in wikipedia.

Now i've converted all those articles to PDF and now i've the pdf file with me.

My friends living far away from my place wants those files.. I taught them to create PDF, but they cant follow my instructions.

So i'm planning to upload those files in my blog and give them the link to download... I dont want to upload to RS.. coz i think they dont know about it.. They want direct download..

I'll give credit to wiki in that page..

Is this OK ? Or is this illegal ?

Thanks in advance

Giga

Why are they unable to convert to PDF ? Haven't they installed any virtual printer? If not, they should!
