How would I say "where is the above text from?"
  • Is it: 上記はどこからか知っていますか?

    Close enough. You wrote "Do you know where the above [text] is from?"

    More literal to what you asked: 「上記はどこからですか」

    I agree with nate.
    「上記テクストはどこからですか?」Where is the above (mentioned) text from?
    Or if you want to know the source of the text, I may say,
    「上の本文は、どこからの出典ですか?」or 「上の本文はどこの出典ですか?」or「上の本文の出典はどこですか?」出典(しゅっ・てん)= source/reference
