If I may make a suggestion...can we please include the links to the articles used? That way it can be read by all, if chosen. This prevents anything being left out, changed or finding flaws.

just a suggestion based on a thread where the pic used in an article had nothing to do with the article.

Anyone with a college education SHOULD know how to cite and link to sources. You will never finding me not linking to the source at the LEAST. All articles and such used are due their proper citations and respect given to the authors and sites where they are found.

I suggest not posting articles at all. flowerforyou

It is spamming and in my opinion in direct violation of JSH rules. If you want to refer to another source, or back up a statement with a source, do so by stating your source and possibly quoting a LINE OR TWO, in " ". But to not use your own words and cut and paste anything directly, to me is a violation of JSH rules and copyright laws.

If people cannot speak for themselves... zip it.

the rules of which have been mention here and there:

9) Do not post messages that violate federal, state/provincial, or local laws which include, but are not limited to, anything that violates a copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret or is bound by NDA (non-disclosure agreement)

10) Do not spam the boards with advertisements for other services, websites, etc.

10) Do not spam the boards with advertisements for other services, websites, etc.

17) In general, you absolutely should feel free to report a post even if you are unsure if it violates the forum rules. A moderator will review it and determine if a rule has been broken. However, a very small group of members have attempted to abuse the Reporting functions of the site by submitting an excessive number of frivolous abuse reports. Overusing and abusing the Reporting functions in such a manner will be considered a violation of the site rules.


Citing sources should be the same for a term paper... and anything over three lines long should really be examined. More than a paragraph is ridiculous.

I just posted some current news from my local paper; while I did copy and paste and excerpt of the article and added the link allowing those who were interested to view article and read for themselves) I find is better than taking up the whole page with the article.

hope this doesnt constitute spamming?:smile:
