All Posters Please Read-DO NOT POST FULL ARTICLES FROM ANOTHER SITE (Copyright Rules)

That can often be a copyright violation. And while it poses a risk for legal action, more importantly it infringes on the author's right to benefit from their intellectual property.

If you want to quote an article, put the title of the article in the post, credit the author, quote 1 or 2 or maybe 3 paragraphs, then hyperlink to the source. DO NOT POST THE WHOLE THING.

Hyperlinking is really easy, you just type a phrase like "Read more here..." and hyperlink it. To hyperlink, highlight the "Read more" text, click on this guy

and paste the URL to it.

We also need to be vigilant about enforcing fair-use laws here.

All articles MUST be linked, and only 3-4 paragraphs, max should be copied.

I will try to edit any paragraphs beyond that, and edit completely any unlinked articles

Seems totally reasonable!

Bump - please do NOT do this!

What does the ASFN logo represent?

I figured this is the best place to ask.

What do the components of the ASFN logo represent?

And are we ready for what?

Thanks, Mods.

Kinda looks like a guy reaching for a roll of toilet paper on one of those modern universal logos.
