When you copy text from a web page, you are almost sure to get some styling with it. If you paste it into a pure text editor like gedit or notepad, the styling should be stripped off. You don't say what tools you are using. If you are pasting into a word processor or some smart editor, try using shift-ctrl-V to paste, and select 'unformatted text". Or maybe the editor will let you do that some other way, maybe with a right-click. Or the editor might have some way to "remove all formatting", like ctrl-M does in LibreOffice. If none of that works, try a really simple pure-text editor.
