No Full Articles - Use Proper Citation

post #1 of 32

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,
admin

Nope, more people posting = more people bumping = more people viewing.

Else what's the point?

It's always been part of our rules and for some reason seems to have slipped in the minds of news posters.

Many of these "news organizations" appreciate the traffic sent to them from Overclock.net - and we (the readers of the news they post) appreciate the news they bring to us. I think it's only fair to respect this relationship. Agreed? Especially if it's explicitly asked for (i.e. they have a copyright notice asking for this to be done on their site).
