No Full Articles - Use Proper Citation

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
This is a general reminder that proper citation of news articles means that you ONLY post an EXCERPT of the article and link to it in the footer.

Please do not copy and paste full news stories unless the source allows you to do so.

Thanks,

Bump. This needs to be acknowledged far more better. Also needs to be noted that the portion that is quoted needs to be the most informative and accurate portion of the source. Not someones favorite portion or a portion to make it very misleading.

Misleading news is not for the news section. If you are going to post news, it should be informative and accurate and the quote that you place in the body of the post should be the informative and accurate portion without removing pieces to make it biased or inaccurate.

This is all my opinion, but I believe this definitely needs to be done or else the news section is not news.

I saw an article recently quoted the entire thing because it was a short article. That's not why we site it partially (to reduce wall of text).

In order for them to get paid, we visit their site.
