How can PHP developers ensure that their automated Wikipedia article display remains compliant with Wikipedia's terms of use and copyright policies?

To ensure compliance with Wikipedia's terms of use and copyright policies, PHP developers can use the Wikipedia API to fetch article content and display it dynamically. By using the API, developers can ensure that they are not violating any copyright restrictions or terms of use set by Wikipedia. 

<?php
$article_title = "Example_article_title";
$api_url = "https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=" . urlencode($article_title) . "&prop=extracts&format=json";

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $api_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

$data = json_decode($response, true);
$extract = $data['query']['pages'][0]['extract'];

echo $extract;
?>
